From Punta Arenas’s Torres del Paine Biosphere Reserve to Puerto Madryn’s Valdes Peninsula Nature Reserve, these UNESCO-listed landscapes lead you to the natural splendors of Patagonia. As our yacht threads its way through the narrow passages of the Chilean Fjords, the world around you transforms into a sanctuary of raw, natural beauty. Catching the first glimpse of Garibaldi Glacier's blue ice shelf is not just a sight but an experience; a living testimony to the Earth’s deep past. Look to the skies, searching for the iconic black-browed albatross in the Falklands. Watch for whales and dolphins in the waters. Ashore with your expedition guide, marvel at the abundance of Gentoo and Magellanic penguins. On an optional kayaking excursion in the Magellan Strait from Punta Arenas, navigate among local birds like caiquenes, cormorants and quetros, and possibly even austral dolphins. This is an enchanting adventure that will change your life.
