Things to do in Chile

Visit the Marble caves

Located on Lago General Carrera these amazingly vibrant blue and grey, partially submerged, cave chambers have been formed by over 6,000 years of erosion.

Glacier Grey Sailing Excursion

Guests are transferred from their hotel to Lago Grey where you will enjoy a boat excursion to the stunning Glacier Grey.

Valparaiso & Viña del Mar

Travel out of Santiago toward the coast, past the vineyards and orchards of the Casablanca Valley.

Base of the Towers Guided Hike

This is one of the most iconic treks in Patagonia. The granite towers soar majestically thousands of metres into the air creating the centrepiece of the whole park.

Astronomical Tour

Join a shared excursion to observe the vast night skies of the Atacama Desert. The altitude of the town as well as the remote location makes this one of the best spots for astronomy, for both amateurs and experts alike.

Visit the Great Glacier

From Villa O’Higgins board a small motor vessel with capacity for 60 passengers to navigate across the Glacier Lake.

Laguna Cejar & Salar de Atacama

The day begins by heading south from San Pedro de Atacama to Cejar Lagoon (the floating lagoon). This small lagoon has impressive white edges of crystallised salt and is intensely turquoise in colour, providing a home for flamingos and tagua birds.

French Valley Trek

Leaving the Paine Grande Mountain Lodge, follow signs for Camping Italiano. You will reach the campsite after around 1½ hours walking along the base of the Torres Massif, along Lago Pehoe and across small streams and valleys.

Private stargazing at Elqui Domos

With the absence of light pollution and favourable climate, the Elqui Valley provides fantastic opportunities to view the night-time sky.

Ahu Akivi

This half day excursion takes you to visit a site with three Tahai ceremonial platforms, all of which were restored in 1974.

El Pangue Observatory

El Pangue Observatory is located ten miles to the south of Vicuña, in the middle of the Elqui Valley, just an hour and a half from La Serena.

Orongo and Rano Kau

This half day excursion will take you to visit the extinct volcano, Rano Kau.

Maipo Valley Wineries Excursion

The Maipo Valley lies to the south of Santiago with the nearest wineries just an hour away from the capital. A guide and driver will take you to some of the best in the area where you are able to taste their products and learn about their techniques.

Selkirk's Lookout Hike

Follow in the steps of Alexander Selkirk, the famous Scottish sailor who was stranded here alone for four years and four months in the early 1700s.

Ahus Vaihu & Akahanga

Visit Ahus Vaihu and the unrestored Akahanga on the south coast of the island. Continue on toward Rano Raraku, a quarry where almost all 900 existing statues were carved, 397 still standing or lying on the slopes of the extinct volcano with a crater lake.

Australis Cruise

The Ventus Australis and her sister ship Stella Australis were built specifically for cruising the waters at the very tip of the South American continent.

Villarrica Volcano Climb

Snow capped Villarrica looms majestically over Pucón at 2,840 metres (9,318 feet) above sea level. You will be able to look into the crater of an active volcano perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Casa Lapostolle tour

Casa Lapostolle is living proof of the fact that experienced winemakers are certain of Chile's ability to produce world-class products.

Explore the Elqui Valley

A stay in the Elqui Valley provides you with a great opportunity to explore Chilean Pisco culture. Pisco is the strong South American 'brandy' distilled from fermented white muscat grapes, grown throughout the Elqui Valley and in Peru.
