Patagonia 11-Day Tours & Itineraries

Explore 9 trips designed by local kimkim specialists to get ideas for your trip to Patagonia.

Patagonia takes up the entire southern cone of South America, so to see much of it requires a good amount of time.

Perhaps enjoy a Chilean excursion from the Prussian-blue lakes and snow-capped volcanoes of the Lake District to the glaciers and granite massifs of Torres del Paine National Park. Or combine a trip to Argentina and Chile that includes walking with Magellanic penguins and traveling to the wilderness in Tierra del Fuego National Park, located at the “end of the world.”
