Chasing glaciers in Patagonia

On the southern tip of South America straddling Chile, Argentina and the Andes lies Patagonia, a wild and far flung region with little settlement but big landscapes. Wide sweeping plains give way to mountains that tower in the horizon with granite peaks that scratch the skyline. Huge glaciers crash into the blue lakes that form at their melting point, and icy breezes blow icebergs to the shorelines.

Torres Del Paine Chile Patagonia Torres Del Paine National Park in Chile’s Patagonia region is one breathtaking view after another. If you make one big trip in your life, this should be it!

In every direction of Patagonia paints a worthy sight. It truly is a place you need to see to believe. Here are just a few highlights from a recent tour of Chile and Argentina's Patagonia, previously posted on tour leader Rachel's instagram:
