Overview

Experience the Chilean Patagonia with a Torres del Paine 4-day all-inclusive tour! This itinerary stands out for its high level of personalization and variety, allowing travelers to build their own daily excursions from a diverse weekly menu. This flexible approach ensures that every guest enjoys a tailored exploration of the region’s natural beauty at their own pace.

The excursion menu features a mix of iconic routes and quieter explorations. Guests can challenge themselves on the trail to the Base of the Towers or enjoy scenic water crossings during the French Valley catamaran tour. For a gentler pace, you might visit the ancient Lake Sarmiento thrombolites or spend relaxing days at sheep farms with horseback riding.

Beyond the trails, the experience offers authenticity through accommodation in geodesic eco-domes that provide total comfort while fostering a close connection with nature. These structures run primarily on renewable energy, providing a warm and sustainable retreat after a day outdoors. Logistics are fully covered: transfers, professional guiding, and daily meals are all included.

  • Full itinerary: shared transfer to the camp, two guided excursions chosen from the weekday menu, and the return transfer.
  • Pick your effort: excursions range from easy to demanding, from a 2.5 km walk to Grey Glacier’s boat landing to the 22 km, 8–10 hour trek to the Base of the Towers. All trails stay below 1,000 m.
  • Look for guanacos, foxes, Andean condors, coscoroba swans, and black-faced ibises, and see the cave paintings on the trail of the Aonikenk (the Indigenous people of the Patagonian plains).
  • About 90% of the camp’s energy comes from solar panels and micro-hydro turbines, with a composting toilet in every private bathroom.
  • End the day with the daily group yoga and stretching class in the camp’s yoga dome.
  • Sleep in one of four types of eco domes in Patagonia’s best-known park: the Standard dome (10 m²) shares bathrooms, while the Superior, Suite and two-floor Suite Loft domes have private bathrooms with composting toilets.
  • Activities guided by English- and Spanish-speaking trekking guides.
  • All-inclusive experience: shared round-trip transfer, 3 nights in your dome at EcoCamp, all meals, 2–3 guided excursions with their boat trips, the national park entrance fee, and a trekking guide.

  • Please note: The itinerary below works as a menu. Each weekday offers two or three excursions, joinable on Day 2 and Day 3. All excursions leave from the camp and come back in time for dinner. The guide may change the order of the activities or replace an excursion for safety or weather. Boat trips and the estancia day run on a reduced schedule in the shoulder months.
