I love to travel and Nick (boyfriend) hates to leave the 12 mile square of his town! I had been dying to go to Patagonia and when Nick told me that he would take me there I knew I ranked! What I didn't realize was that Nick had planned to
propose to me while in Patagonia....
"The hikes were beautiful, the penguins amazing, food fantastic and everyone that worked with our group was great!"

 atagonia
is arguably the world's most dramatic landscape. The robust outdoor culture of the local people create a sense that the gauchos and guides are somehow organic; that here, perhaps only here, the planet and its inhabitants are as one. Set
against a backdrop of stunning snow-clad mountain peaks, Patagonia's multiple habitats with their strange and exotic wildlife such as guanaco are an experience the traveler never forgets. Amidst the awesome beauty, one can even forget that
Patagonia, which spans Southern Chile and Argentina, is one of the world's premier hiking and trekking regions.

Patagonia
In full appreciation of the wonder of such a place, and with one eye sharply focused on ensuring that no cultural or ecological footprints are left behind, Wildland offers travelers a diverse range of active, outdoor explorations
focused on hiking and trekking. To complete the experience, we use deluxe camps, hosterias and the luxurious
Explora lodge; and on coastal adventures, live-aboard yachts and small expedition ships.
Wildland Adventures operates tours throughout Patagonia and in the northern regions of Chile and Argentina. From the pampas and the Lakes District down to Torres del Paine and Tierra del Fuego, Wildland strives to provide travelers with
new and deeper insights into the wilderness and native culture of South America.
One caveat; space is limited during the peak summer months south of the Equator so reserve your Patagonia sojourn right now.
