Chile Atacama and Torres del Paine Discovery

1 / 1

Chile Atacama and Torres del Paine Discovery in Chile

This 8-day trip combines the Atacama Desert and southern Patagonia in one program with shared transfers and a mix of guided excursions and independent travel legs. In San Pedro de Atacama, the route focuses on the salt flat, Toconao, Moon Valley, the Altiplanic Lagoons, Piedras Rojas and the Tatio Geysers. In Patagonia, it continues through Punta Arenas and Puerto Natales to Torres del Paine National Park. The schedule includes different guides and travel companions depending on each day’s activity. That means the trip does not run as a single escorted group from start to finish. It is built around the included excursions, local transfers and overnight stays, with time between regions used for flights and bus travel. Accommodation, breakfast, selected entrance fees and the listed transfers are included. Internal flights, some meals and optional activities are not.
