Buenos Aires Extension: Tigre Delta, Eco Reserves, and the City Center Discover two distinct sides of Argentina in a single journey— the vibrant energy of its capital city and the quiet waterways of the Tigre Delta. This three-day program immerses guests in the elegance of Buenos Aires, with its grand boulevards, café culture, the storied Recoleta Cemetery and the urban wilderness of Costanera Sur Ecological Reserve along the Río de la Plata. Your journey then shifts to the Tigre Delta, where lush islands, birdlife and stilt-house communities line a maze of winding channels. From cosmopolitan avenues to tranquil backwaters, this journey captures the essence of Argentine adventure.
Buenos Aires Extension: Iguazú Falls, Deep Jungle, and City Tours Immerse yourself in the cosmopolitan elegance of Buenos Aires and the breathtaking natural spectacle of Iguazú Falls – one of the world’s most extraordinary waterfall systems and an UNESCO World Heritage Site. Through our trusted local partners, this five-day adventure gives guests rare access to the Mbya Guaraní community of Jasy Porá, providing a window into their spiritual beliefs and deep connection to the forest. The journey then returns to Buenos Aires, with its historic neighborhoods, café culture, and an unforgettable evening of world-class tango.
Ushuaia Extension: Tierra del Fuego & Harberton Ranch
Punta Arenas Extension: Torres del Paine National Park Step into Patagonia. This custom five-day pre-expedition tour immerses you in Torres del Paine National Park. Dramatic granite peaks, glacial lakes, and wide-open skies define one of the planet’s most cinematic landscapes. Guided hikes with our trusted local partners showcase the park’s raw beauty, while time in the frontier town of Puerto Natales offers a glimpse into Patagonian life along the fjord lined Última Esperanza Sound. Begin your final morning with a private sunrise photography tour before embarking on your Antarctic adventure.
Explore at the “end of the world.” This three-day tour blends pristine sub-Antarctic nature with human history. Begin with a visit to historic Estancia Harberton, the oldest family-owned ranching estate in Tierra del Fuego. Then venture into Tierra del Fuego National Park, where ancient beech forests, glacial lakes, and windswept coastlines meet the Beagle Channel. Complete the journey with a ride on the El Tren del Fin del Mundo—one of South America’s most evocative rail experiences—winding through Patagonian forest and wild river valleys.
