Patagonie Trekking<\/strong> is a Chilean travel agency specialising in adventure travel, trekking and exploring the great outdoors of South America. Founded by a Chilean guide with a passion for nature and the mountains, the agency was born from a simple idea: to offer a different way to discover the extraordinary landscapes of Patagonia<\/strong>, the Atacama Desert<\/strong> and the Altiplano, as well as the vast landscapes of Bolivia<\/strong> and the cultural treasures of Peru<\/strong>. Drawing on our extensive experience in the field, we focus on small-group travel, carefully designed itineraries and authentic experiences away from mass tourism. Mountains, volcanoes, deserts, glaciers and high plateaus provide the perfect setting for a true journey of discovery and adventure. At Patagonie Trekking<\/strong>, travelling also means taking the time to meet local people, learn about their culture and way of life, and respect the places we visit. Sharing, discovering and preserving<\/strong> are at the heart of the way we travel.<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

He speaks excellent French and can be contacted at info@patagonietrekking.com.\n\nAnd if you\u2019re still wondering whether Chile is worth visiting, I can honestly say that for nature lovers, it\u2019s paradise on Earth!\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\t\t\tOur thoughts on the trip and our experience travelling with Julio Allan Agouborde Monsalves.\n\nWe absolutely loved this trip, which was very well planned and organised by Julio. Here are our main impressions:\n\nJulio is a reliable organiser and guide. He arranged the entire trip from start to finish, including hotels, restaurants, accommodation, hiking and sightseeing. As the group representative, I found it very easy to communicate with Julio from our very first contact, many months before the trip, when we were working out the details of the itinerary. He was always very attentive to our suggestions.\n\nDuring the trip, he handled the few unexpected situations very well, such as the minibus not always arriving on time and border crossings. He has an excellent knowledge of the history, geography and ecology of both Chilean and Argentinian Patagonia, which he was always happy to share with us. He also has a strong network of local guides.\n\nJulio was an excellent travel companion: always available, welcoming and in a good mood. He fitted naturally into the group and everything went very smoothly.\n\nWe felt the trip offered excellent value for money. With Julio, we enjoyed an exciting and well-balanced journey. He is an excellent organiser and guide whom we would happily recommend to anyone.\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\t\t\tHello everyone,\n\nPatagonie Trekking is a small local agency run by Julio, a Chilean guide who speaks fluent French, which is quite rare among local guides and agencies. The excellent communication we had with him while we were still in France gave us the confidence to organise our trip to Patagonia with him.\n\nJulio put together a tailor-made itinerary based on our wishes, budget and expectations, and he more than lived up to them. He is very responsive, professional, discreet, calm, efficient and always in a good mood. He also has an excellent knowledge of the region.\n\nOur trip took place during the first half of March 2020. As Covid-19 was spreading rapidly across the country and the Chilean authorities were introducing new restrictions, Julio adapted our itinerary day by day and always found alternative options for us.\n\nHe is a five-star guide whom we can recommend with complete confidence.\n\nIf Chile and Patagonia are your next destinations, get in touch with him. You won\u2019t be disappointed.\n\ninfo@patagonietrekking.com\n\nGilles & Pascale (Nantes)\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\t\t\tWe\u2019ve just returned from an amazing five-week trip through northern Chile, Bolivia, Chilean and Argentinian Patagonia (October 20 to November 23, 2022 \u2013 35 days in total), organised by a small local Chilean agency based in Puerto Natales. We were extremely happy with the whole experience. Everything was very well organised, both before we left and throughout the trip.\n\nThere were five of us travelling through northern Chile and six for the Carretera Austral and Chilean and Argentinian Patagonia. Julio was a knowledgeable and attentive guide who always listened to what we wanted and played a huge part in making the trip run so smoothly, from the restaurants and excursions to all the places we visited.\n\nThe itinerary was perfectly suited to a five-week trip and was completely different from the standard tours offered by travel agencies in France. We also had excellent drivers throughout the journey: Edwin in northern Chile, Oscar and Erick in the Sud L\u00edpez region of Bolivia, and Am\u00e9rico in Chilean and Argentinian Patagonia. The accommodation and hotels were also very good.\n\nJulio was a friendly and professional tour leader, and the local guides were knowledgeable and interesting. Together, they allowed us to discover Chile, Bolivia and Argentina in the best possible way.\n\nWe wouldn\u2019t hesitate to recommend Patagonie Trekking. It is a reliable, professional agency that we were very happy to travel with.\n\nThank you, Julio, and see you again soon!\n\nDanielle, Jean, V\u00e9ronique, Isabelle and Serge\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\t\t\tWe are a Spanish couple from the Canary Islands who travelled around Chile during the first week of December, and we would like to thank Julio and his team and highlight their excellent organisation throughout our visit to Chilean and Argentinian Patagonia.\n\nWe had a wonderful experience with Patagonie Trekking. Julio organised an amazing tour of Patagonia for us. We visited Torres del Paine, Milodon Cave, Magdalena Island, Perito Moreno Glacier and the city of Punta Arenas.\n\nJulio has extensive knowledge of the region, including its geography, wildlife and plant life. We would definitely recommend Patagonie Trekking for a trip to either Chilean or Argentinian Patagonia.\n\nJulio is an excellent organiser and always pays attention to the smallest details. In short, if you\u2019re looking for a guide who can put together a great itinerary, knows the region inside out and can deal with any unexpected problems along the way, Julio and his agency, Patagonie Trekking, are exactly what you\u2019re looking for. See you in Bolivia in 2023!\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\t\t\tHello,\n\nWe\u2019ve just come back from an amazing three-week trip to Chile with friends, and we absolutely fell in love with this beautiful country.\n\nWe travelled through both northern and southern Patagonia, taking in the famous Carretera Austral and Torres del Paine National Park, and even crossed over into Argentinian Patagonia for a few days.\n\nJulio played a huge part in making this trip so memorable. He\u2019s a local Chilean guide who speaks excellent French and knows Patagonia incredibly well. We gave him our budget and a list of the places we really wanted to see, and he took care of the rest, putting together a fantastic itinerary that suited us perfectly.\n\nJulio knows the region inside out and has so much to share about Chilean history, culture and local life. He was always there when we needed him, always cheerful, and really took the time to listen to what we wanted.\n\nWe had a fantastic experience with Julio and wouldn\u2019t hesitate to recommend him to anyone planning a trip to Patagonia.\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

We started in Santiago before spending five days in San Pedro de Atacama, exploring some incredible places such as the Valley of the Moon, the Atacama Salt Flat and the Tatio Geysers. From there, we visited Valpara\u00edso before heading south to Patagonia, where we explored Magdalena Island, Torres del Paine National Park and the Grey Glacier.\n\nThe whole trip was very well organised, from the airport transfers and hotels to all the excursions. Everything ran smoothly and the guides were excellent throughout.\n\nWe travelled with Patagonie Trekking, run by Julio, and had a brilliant experience.\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\t\t\tHello,\n\nIn August 2024, six of us, all friends, spent two weeks travelling through northern Chile and Bolivia. We contacted Julio from Patagonie Trekking after he was recommended to us by friends who had travelled through Patagonia in 2023.\n\nThe itinerary was tailored to our budget and took us through the Chilean Altiplano, Lake Chungar\u00e1 in the Arica region and the magnificent Salar de Surire. Then came the part we had been looking forward to the most: the Salar de Uyuni and Laguna Colorada in Bolivia, the Sud L\u00edpez region and San Pedro de Atacama in Chile. The drivers and guides made the whole trip a fantastic experience.\n\nWe were a little worried about the altitude, but we adapted really well thanks to the gradual ascent. The high plateaus at 4,500 metres were a bit cold, but absolutely beautiful. Travelling through the vast and remote landscapes of Bolivia gave us a real sense of connection with the Andean wilderness.\n\nA fantastic trip that we would definitely recommend. We\u2019ll be back in 2025 to discover Patagonia.\n\nHasta pronto, Julio!\n\nDaniel and his friends \u2013 Toulouse\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
