Why I Chose This for You

Chile is a country that stirs the soul — every corner is a different world. I chose this trip because it gives you the rare chance to see all of it: desert, volcanoes, lakes, glaciers and cities, without compromise. It’s the perfect balance of wild adventure and supportive guidance, ideal for solo travellers who want to see as much as possible in one unforgettable journey.

About this Trip

Travel the full length of Chile — a land where extremes collide. From the Mars-like landscapes of the Atacama Desert to the icy peaks of Patagonia, this journey captures the country’s astonishing diversity in one seamless adventure. Along the way you’ll encounter volcanic valleys, glacial fjords, colourful coastal cities, and the serenity of Chile’s lake district.


With expert guides, internal flights, and all the details taken care of, you’ll experience Chile in its rawest, most powerful form — while enjoying the warmth, safety and connection that makes solo travel so rewarding.
