Honest insights from past guests on our Chile tours
Anonymous | Traveled in March
This trip is fantastic! The itinerary is varied and interesting, the country is beautiful. The hotels were extremely good, the Fundador being more basic than the rest. All the local guides were knowledgeable and helpful. Our guide throughout, Marcelo, was excellent. He was extremely efficient, seamlessly reorganising the programme in Patagonia when necessary due to local conditions. He was very knowledgeable and helpful, always looking out to see everyone was ok. He has a superb sense of humour, skilfully easing some early mornings, long days, and lots of travel. He definitely added to our experience, making it even more enjoyable and memorable.

So many different types of experiences that it’s impossible to compare which is the favorite. The camaraderie of the group? The wine tastings? Ranches, farms, riding a horse? Big city sights? The moving dictatorship remembrance sites in Chile and Argentina? But I will say that Iguazú falls were spectacular!

Things to know about this trip I hope will help others (I did the trip in Feb 2026): - follow the packing list in the contiki itinerary PLUS BRING THE FOLLOWING WHICH ARE NOT IN THE CURRENT PACKING LIST: RAIN PANTS, GLOVES, BEANIE AND THERMALS - Hiking poles can be rented for super cheap. I would not have packed them and saved the luggage space if I knew beforehand
