Quite simply this is the finest place we have ever stayed. The staff are exceptional. The accommodation is fantastic. The food is phenomenal. The views are amazing. Everything is superb. A wonderful experience. And, just to say again, the quality of staff is exceptional. Friendly. Efficient. Full of information. Enthusiastic. Ever helpful. All are brilliant.

Camila Flano

We went on our honeymoon and had an incredible stay. The place where the camp is located is a wonder, sleeping in yurts is a unique experience, the food was delicious and the excursions were very entertaining. But, without a doubt, what we take away most from this experience are the people. Everyone was incredibly kind, always with an excellent attitude and a genuine concern for making us feel good and enjoy every moment. An unforgettable experience and a place we would love to return to!

Patagonia Camp is a DREAM hotel. From the moment they receive you at the transfer until you leave on the last day, they look after you, caring about every detail and about you being content and happy in Patagonia. The atmosphere in the hotel is very pleasant, and the way everyone treats each other is so good that they convey a lot of happiness to the guests. Every day spent at the hotel is a new surprise, the menu and the cocktails get better each time, and the care of the yurts also reflects the quality of the hotel. You won't regret going. Now I have Patagonia Camp depression! I hope to come back soon. PS: the best were the brownies as a snack!

What an extraordinary resort in an extraordinary location. Customer service (from everyone) was A+. The camp facilities are beautiful and the yurts are so warm and comfortable. (Probably the most comfortable hotel bed I have ever slept in in). Food and drink quality is excellent, and the cocktail selection incredible. And as for the experience, knowledge, and joy from the hiking guides - I could not fault them. The organisation of the hiking in the national park is brilliant … briefings, transfers, lunch stops, hospitality - everything is taken care of with pleasure. The views, mountains, lakes, wildlife - it’s all just as you expect from pictures that you’ve seen …. But way better.

An incredible experience in a wonderful setting like Chilean Patagonia, but above all, I want to highlight the staff. The bartenders are masters of mixology, the kitchen offers a complete gastronomic proposal, the guides are professional and experienced, and the service team is extremely attentive and very kind. Together they deliver impeccable attention. Very grateful to the entire Patagonia Camp team for making this trip something unforgettable."

This boutique hotel delivered beyond expectations. Luxury yurts nestled in the terrain outside Torrres Del Paine National Park were nicely appointed. The views stunning. The food excellent and surprisingly creative featuring classic beef and lamb and all manner of seafood. The staff were the jewels of the experience. Professional, courteous, friendly, engaging and genuinely interested in guests having a lovely experience. From our arrival to departure we were well cared for. A special recommendation for excellence to Rosia, a member of the reception team and to the incredible duo of Anto and Ramiro who guided our hikes and drove us across incredible terrain. Anto made our hikes sing! We would love to return.

We spent four nights at Estancia Cerro Guido in early October and really enjoyed our stay. The setting is beautiful. The estancia is vast, and at times, it felt as though we were completely alone in the landscape. The area is also full of native wildlife. The new main building and restaurant are lovely, with large windows that make the most of the views. Our room was on the small side, but charming and comfortable, and housekeeping was very attentive. What stood out most was the service. Everyone we met was warm and helpful, and the activities were genuinely tailored to what we wanted to do. We had mentioned that we preferred shorter hikes with beautiful views, wanted to spend time with the animals, and were keen to try horseback riding despite having no previous experience. Our guide, Jorge, did an excellent job planning our days around those interests. We visited the conservation project, went on some lovely hikes, tried horseback riding for the first time (and liked it enough to go again), and spent time with the gaucho Ricardo, watching him and his dogs work with the sheep. It never felt like we were following a set itinerary. The whole team, from reception and the activity staff to the stable team, restaurant staff and drivers, was excellent. Everything worked smoothly. I also loved being around all the animals: the dogs, horses, cats, Manolo the cow and Juanito the sheep. We ate very well throughout our stay, and the traditional barbecues and charcuterie were especially memorable. We even had a special asado by the stables, which was one of the highlights of the trip. What makes Cerro Guido special is that it offers two sides of Patagonia: the mountains, hiking trails and wildlife of Torres del Paine, as well as the traditions and everyday life of a working estancia. Staying at Cerro Guido means you don’t have to choose between first-class service and character.

We had an exceptional stay at Estancia Cerro Guido. It is in a breathtaking location and is all the more special as it combines luxury accommodation and dining with active conservation projects and a fully working livestock ranch. Our guides were friendly and knowledgeable and went out of their way to make our stay special. We saw so much wildlife (pumas, condors, armadillo), hiked thorough the snow then back to an outpost for beef stew, went horse riding with gauchos to check on livestock and finished every day with a Pisco Sour at the bar.

Alejandro Callis Giragossian

Marvelous. From the beginning they welcome you with a unique kindness, the place is truly magical and connects you with nature, their culinary preparations are of the highest level, highlighting local flavors and products, first-class service. Now I understand why it is among the best hotels in the world.

We had an amazing time - lodge was fabulous, staff welcoming, guides knowledgeable. Wished we’d had more time. It was wonderful.

Patagonia adventure tours in Chile: which experience fits you best?

Explore our Patagonia adventure tours in southern Chile’s Aysén and Magallanes regions, where the Andes meet fjords, steppe, and ice fields. Most trips center on Torres del Paine National Park—a 1,814 km² UNESCO Biosphere Reserve protected since 1959, featuring 2,500 m granite Towers and Paine Grande (2,884 m). Nearby, the 16,480 km² Southern Patagonian Ice Field feeds the mesmerizing Grey Glacier.

Choose from multi-day treks, puma tracking, or living on a Patagonian ranch!

Patagonia trekking tours: the W, the O, and day hikes in Torres del Paine

Hiking in Patagonia is why most travelers come. The Paine Massif, the Torres del Paine mountain range, has two classic routes. The W Trek connects the Base of the Towers, French Valley, and Grey Glacier on 5-day and 7-day routes that span 58 to 71 km. Meanwhile, the O Circuit takes you to the peaceful northern section and over the challenging John Gardner Pass on a 9-day adventure (124 km in total).

Prefer day hikes to a multi-day trek? The 4-day all-inclusive tour offers daily guided excursion options: a 22 km Base of the Towers hike, an 8 km Laguna Inge walk, a 9 km Vega Castillo wetland walk, or a 2-hour sheep farm horseback ride. The base is a camp of heated geodesic domes facing the Towers that runs on ~90% solar and micro-hydro power.

Wildlife tours: tracking pumas in Patagonia

Although pumas prey on the guanacos grazing the park’s steppe, encountering one during a standard trek is purely a matter of chance. Designed for higher success, the 6-day puma tracking tour includes 3 dedicated days of searching for pumas on foot and by 4×4 alongside specialist guides, capped at intimate groups of 6.

When these mighty felines are not in view, sightings of Patagonian foxes, guanacos, and soaring Andean condors keep wildlife viewing active. At the end of the day, rest in a comfortable geodesic camp.

Immersive culture: gaucho life at Estancia Cerro Guido

Experience Chilean Patagonia’s culture by staying at Estancia Cerro Guido, a 100,000-hectare working ranch founded in 1906 that runs 13,000 sheep and 1,500 cattle. Located 40 minutes from the Laguna Amarga entrance, its 21-room lodge occupies restored ranch houses facing the Paine Massif.

All-inclusive stays at this estancia feature daily excursions: ranch activities with gauchos, puma conservation tracking, visiting the Sierra Baguales near the Argentine border, and horseback rides on gentle Patagonian Criollo horses suitable for beginners.

When to go: the summer trekking season and winter at the estancia

Running from October to April, the trekking season finds its peak during the southern summer (December to March), which is widely considered the best time to visit Patagonia.

These months feature long daylight hours (puma tracking outings start by 5 AM in December) and temperatures averaging 11°C (52°F), spanning from 2°C to 24°C (35°F to 75°F). The estancia also opens for Patagonia in winter, from May to August, with snowshoe hikes and less wind.
