Lindblad Expeditions

Patagonia & the Chilean Fjords…the ideal setting for a South America adventure at the jagged southern tip of the continent. Here there is jaw-dropping wilderness as far as the eye can see, newness around each corner…with landscapes ranging from vast steppes, thousands of tiny green islands, craggy snow-covered peaks, waterfalls and hot springs, and multi-colored lakes with enormous glaciers running to them, which calve into icebergs as if this were a polar region.

What you'll see: Our Patagonia expedition through this gripping stretch of earth west of the Andes takes us to several of Patagonia’s famed national parks. At renowned Torres del Paine N.P you’ll explore sparkling teal-colored Lago Pehoe, view the unmistakable massive peaks of Los Cuernos (“the horns”) and watch for South America wildlife: guanacos, rheas, flamingos and Andean condors. And then there are the Chilean Fjords…unlike the familiar fjords of Scandinavia, the Chilean Fjords are virtually uninhabited and seldom visited. We’ll take time to experience the silence and pristine perfection of the remote Chilean Fjords, using our Zodiacs and kayaks for spontaneous exploration and a closer, more intimate view.

Why you should have a Patagonia adventure with us: For years, National Geographic Endeavour has explored the waters of this wilderness annually. Because of our ship’s size, we can sail the narrow inland passage of the Chilean Fjords; larger ships must remain mostly outside in the open Pacific. With our experienced Expedition Team, South America travel comes to vibrant life as you absorb, inquire, and discuss. Join us as we explore some of southern Chile’s most spectacular scenery. Explore, walk, foray by kayak and Zodiac at a variety of national parks and conclude your days with a glass of Chilean wine and a wealth of lasting memories.
