About This Tour

A 16-day journey linking Argentine Patagonia's classic hikes with a small-ship cruise through the Chilean fjords of Tierra del Fuego and Cape Horn, finishing with two days in Santiago. Eight nights are in Argentina (Buenos Aires, El Chaltén and El Calafate) before boarding the Australis expedition cruise, which sails four nights through Cape Horn and the Chilean fjords of Tierra del Fuego; the final three nights are ashore in Chile (Punta Arenas and Santiago). Every night's hotel or cabin is confirmed for wherever the itinerary actually places you that day.
