On this private luxury tour of Chile, experience dramatic scenery, great wine, unusual cultural attractions and off-the-beaten-track destinations.

Begin in the picturesque Colchagua Valley wine region of Chile, where many of Chile's top wineries produce high-quality red wines from Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Carmenere grapes. Stay at an exclusive hotel among the beautiful vineyards of the region, and enjoy private touring of top wineries and the most interesting cultural attractions.

Next, fly to northern Chile and the Atacama Desert, a vast region of remarkable landscapes, including salt flats, sand dunes, hot springs, geysers and volcanoes. Choose from daily excursions and activities such as seeing the Valley of the Moon, exploring different sections of the National Flamingo Reserve, walking on sand dunes, bathing in hot springs, stargazing in the incredibly clear and dark night sky, visiting traditional villages, seeing pre-Columbian fortresses, learning to identify ancient petroglyphs, mountain biking, horseback riding and venturing to the altiplano at dawn to watch the El Tatio geysers erupt.

Continue to Santiago, a historic city with unforgettable views of the Andes mountains. While touring with your own private guide, gain an insider's perspective on Santiago highlights such as the Plaza de Armas, Mercado Central, La Chascona (Pablo Neruda's house), the Chilean Museum of Pre-Columbian Art, beautiful colonial architecture, exclusive shops and historic neighborhoods.

One day, take an excursion to Valparaiso, an unusual city built on hills overlooking the Pacific Ocean and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Explore the labyrinthine streets of the most colorful cerros (hills), visit notable museums, and perhaps take one of the funiculars that connect the upper and lower parts of the city.

Continue to Chiloe, an archipelago off the coast of northern Patagonia that’s known for its unique culture, architecture and cuisine. Stay at a top local hotel, and enjoy beautiful views of the inland sea. Perhaps try local culinary specialties such as curanto, a seafood and meat stew baked in the ground. During daily touring, explore different facets of Chiloe's distinctive culture and natural beauty. See colorful waterfront houses on stilts, visit UNESCO World Heritage-listed wooden churches, and cruise the scenic waterways between the islands. Other touring options include horseback riding, hiking, birding in protected wetlands, learning how local fisherman harvest chorritos (mussels), visiting local homes and salmon smokehouses, and excursions to see penguins, sea lions and other wildlife.

Continue to southern Patagonia and Torres del Paine National Park. One of the most spectacular landscapes in South America, the park is a wonderland of spiky mountains, blue glaciers, sapphire lakes and dense forests. Choose daily excursions according to your interests, such as scenic walks and hikes, wildlife viewing, bird watching, photography safaris, kayaking and boat rides on glacial lakes, visiting a typical estancia (ranch), barbecue lunches, mountain biking and horseback riding. Conclude with a flight to Santiago to connect with your onward flight.

All touring is flexible and customized to your interests, and accommodation is in top rooms at Chile's leading luxury hotels and lodges.
