Wild Style in Argentina
Personalized, Flexible Itinerary
Working directly with specialized regional
guides and outfitters throughout Chile
and Argentina, we will help you select
the best itinerary and design your Wildland
Adventure with possible trip extensions
and extra hotel nights as needed. You
will get the best value from your trip
by joining one of our scheduled group
departures which are set up in advance
with our best guides. Many trip dates
and add-ons are set up so you can combine
them as one longer Wildland Adventure
and are guaranteed to depart for as few
as two persons. We can also design a custom
itinerary according to your interests
and travel dates (in which case we request
a $50 custom trip planning deposit).
Accommodations and Meals
We prefer using accommodations with comfort,
service and charm characteristic of the
region. In cities we use 4-star hotels
with good location, comfort and service.
There are always more luxurious hotels
or lavish estancias and lodges, and we
are pleased to upgrade at extra cost (especially
recommended for honeymoon travelers).
In some regions, particularly in Torres
del Paine, space is limited by small lodges
and hosterias with variable room configurations.
Book early for the best chances of securing
our preferred hotel choices. Special dietary
requests can be accommodated. Many regional
hotels and lodges serve homemade bread,
jam, fresh garden salads, meat off the
range, trout from local streams, and everywhere
you will enjoy local New World wines.
Dinners on camping and trekking trips
include appetizers, soups, salads, deserts
with entrées of chicken, beef,
lamb or pasta.
Air Arrangements and Connections
We offer low bulk rate fares to Santiago
or Buenos Aires. You can fly into one
city and out of the other. We will also
book your in-country domestic flights
(not included in land costs) through our
local representatives who will deliver
your tickets upon arrival and assist you
with any flight changes during your trip.
December-February is summer vacation for
Chileans and Argentines so flights to
and within both countries may be sold
out for months in advance, especially
in December. Plan your travel arrangements
far in advance, especially if you intend
to extend your trip. Most international
flights arrive into Buenos Aires or Santiago
in the morning after a 12-hour flight
from the US. In most cases, it is possible
to make same day connections onward to
other locations in Argentina or Chile.
In this manner, you can bypass an overnight
in the capital city, although it makes
for a very long travel day. It is not
possible to use discounted "Air Passes"
for local flights since you will need
to use a combination of different domestic
air carriers for internal flights to coincide
with your land itinerary. Therefore, Wildland
Adventures reserves all the local flights
in Chile and Argentina to coincide with
your land arrangements. Those tickets
are issued by our local agent for pick
up upon your arrival.
A valid passport is all you need to enter
Chile or Argentina (but a visa is required
to Brazil).
