Chilean Wonders

Feb. 10 – 21

Discover Chile’s natural beauty and the warm culture of this South American jewel on a first-class, nine-night adventure! Explore Santiago, framed by the Andes Mountains, to see pre-Columbian art. Take a ferry to remote Chiloé Island to see the picturesque village and visit a penguin colony in its natural habitat. Travel to Petrohué to take in the chute-like river falls there and cruise Lake Todos Santos to admire majestic volcanoes. Tour the historic port city of Punta Arenas on the Strait of Magellan. Cruise through the Ultima Esperanze Fjord to marvel at the imposing Balmaceda and Serrano glaciers and walk through the forest of Bernardo O’Higgins National Park. Gaze at the granite peaks and intense blue glacial lakes of the acclaimed Torres del Paine National Park and see the Salto Grande waterfall.

Along the way, savor tantalizing Chilean foods, including a curanto lunch cooked on hot stones and a traditional Patagonian barbecue. This active, small-group program features knowledgeable guides and lecturers, three flights within Chile and a generous meal plan with wine at dinner.
