Information about this itinerary:
Buenos Aires (52 Hotels options in Buenos Aires)
One of the largest cities in the world, Buenos Aires is also the capital of the tango and football, the gaucho and the asados.

This is a city with plenty to offer for all the tastes and tourist needs.

Bariloche (18 Hotels options in Bariloche)

Puerto Varas - Puerto Montt (10 Hotels options in Puerto Varas - Puerto Montt)
Puerto Varas is a nineteenth century port, situated at 12 miles north of Puerto Montt, on Lake Llanquihui, that faces the white cone of the Osorno Volcano. Renowned as one of the most beautiful trips in the area, Puerto Varas sits at the banks of the lake crossing from here to Argentina (Bariloche), sailing through emerald lakes and winding roads across the Andes mountain range.

Torres del Paine (6 Hotels options in Torres del Paine)
Torres del Paine National Park, declared Reserve of the Biosphere by Unesco in 1978, is the most important and internationally renowned highlight of the Chilean Patagonia. In this beautiful, unspoiled and remote place of 181,000 hectares, the granite torres (towers) and cuernos (horns) have given world-wide fame to the Park. It also offers seclusion and adventure with spectacular scenery of mountain range, lakes, rivers and the pampa, which is home to the graceful guanaco (a relative of the llama) and the speedy ńandu (a variety of ostrich), while high above circles the ubiquitous condor.
The best season to visit the park is from October to April, which is Spring and Summer in the southern hemisphere. This season has more sunny days with less rain.

Punta Arenas - Straits of Magellan (5 Hotels options in Punta Arenas - Straits of Magellan)
Today, Punta Arenas reflects a great mix of cultures, from English sheep ranchers to Portuguese sailors, and it remains an utterly fascinating testament to the Chile's rich history. It is found on the western edge of the Straits of Magellan, which join the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, offering great views over the colorful roofs of the city of Tierra del Fuego.
It's privileged location has made of this port the gateway to initiate an amazing experience in Torres del Paine National Park, or a beatiful cruise towards Cabo de Hornos or the Antarctica.

Santiago (22 Hotels options in Santiago)
Santiago is an architectural collage of old Spanish colonial charm, European elegance, and North American suburbia, populated with five million amiable Chileans. However, the city lacks the Indian markets prevalent in other Andean countries. In the city's center there are pedestrian malls with cobblestone walkways lined with shopping galleries, fountains, cafes, movie theaters, ice cream shops, and banks. There is an intense activity in the arts and also an exciting nightlife.

Lake Crossing
Lake Crossing begins in Bariloche on Nahuel Huapi Lake and continues to Puerto Blest, Puerto Alegre, and Puerto Frias before arriving in Peulla for overnight.

The next day, continue through Todos Los Santos Lake to Petrohue and along Llanquihue Lake to Puerto Varas with great views along the way of these fabulous lakes and various volcanos including Osorno, Cabulco, Tronador, and Catedral.
