On March 4, 2012, lucky visitors to Argentina's Perito Moreno glacier had the rare opportunity to witness a massive ice fall.

EcoCamp excursion - View from summit of Cerro Paine

Summary of our Trip to Patagonia

This is the second time we used Adventure Life to assist us with booking our South America travel and they did an awesome job! We initially worked with Kevin to customize our itinerary from the “End of the World” tour and then we worked with Franny to finalize all the logistics. They were both very quick to respond, patient with …

Torres del Paine

This morning our ship docked at Puerto Natales after navigating through more of the fjords. This popular port town hosted a port large enough for our ship to dock at, which allowed us to easily walk off the ship later that morning to begin our bus tour of Torres del Paine. This bus tour was one of the paid excursions that we did, although a free …

Puerto Natales

Today we participated in the free walking tour of Puerto Natales and the surrounding area that was offered both days at this port. The tour guide on this several hour tour was very knowledgable and provided a lot of interesting info while we were riding in the bus as well as walking around our stops. The tour started in one of the two main town …

Letting Go of Expectations

The best way to explore and truly experience a place or event is to let go of any assumption, or expectations and know that it will all be okay in the end.

This was a difficult reality for me in the first 36 hours of my 8-day Antarctica journey. I was on the trip of a lifetime that started in Punta Arenas, Chile and would take me to the Antarctic …

Hiking through the woods!

Hiking in El Chalten

Walking in the woods is one of my favorite activities. I believe that clean air is one of the best purifiers for our bodies. Therefore increasing your breathing rate out in nature is medicine. Or maybe it’s more like drugs because I am addicted and crave it every day…

We planned to hike something lite upon arrival, Laguna Torre the …

Mountains in Patagonia!

Patagonia First!

It’s easy to get carried away talking about Antarctica and completely neglect the rocky terrain of Patagonia. Looking back, this feels like such a different experience, it must have been a completely separate trip. But no, before arriving in Ushuaia, my partner-in-crime and I flew into El Calafate to be transported to El Chalten for some …

All packed for Antarctica!

Packing for Antarctica

You'd think living in Montana would have conditioned me to cold temperatures over time. Although, my comfort level never expanded to anything lower than 60 degrees, I have learned to adjust my wardrobe accordingly. You can find me wearing two pairs of pants and at least three shirts December through February. All these layers help me feel like …

Tierra del Fuego National Park

Trekking and Paddling

Upon arrival in the port city of Ushuaia, I went to go check out Tierra del Fuego National Park on a trekking and paddling excursion! I visited Ushuaia a few years ago, but did not get a chance to visit this particular national park, and I was excited to check it out. In the morning, I met up with the small group of other travelers and our local …

Torres del Paine photo safari

Torres del Paine

We spent our first full excursion day at Remota Lodge (out of Puerto Natales) exploring nearby Torres del Paine National Park.They call this excursion the "photo safari" for good reason! We were whisked away to so many corners of the park to hit as many of those picture-perfect views as possible. I was content to have someone else …

Patagonia Fly Fishing - not for beginners!

Let's first just pause and take in this magical view - does it get any better?! Notice Torres del Paine in the background.

My husband and I live in Montana and fly fish as much as possible from April - October. It's a newer hobby for me, but I've caught on quickly and have fallen hard.The search for the biggest trout always keeps me …

The spectacular food at Remota Lodge

The food at Remota deserves its own post!

My husband and I are self-proclaimed foodies. What can I say, we love to eat! Especially while on vacation, we want food that creates memories! We stayed at Remota Patagonia Lodge for the first week of our trip, and the food was a major highlight of our stay, right alongside the Torres del Paine views and biggest fly fishing catches. We did our …

Remota Lodge - our home away from home!

Why stay at Remota?

We were lucky to be hosted by Remota Patagonia Lodge for the first week of our trip. Remota is located in the town of Puerto Natales, sandwiched between Punta Arenas (3 hours to the south) and Torres del Paine National Park (1.5 hours to the north). Located on the water with snow-capped mountains in the background, it's certainly a serene …

The Beagle Channel & Estancia Harberton

A surprise excursion for us was our day on the Beagle Channel and the visit to Harberton Estancia. I didn’t really know what to expect, Franny didn’t really know what to expect, and so we came prepared for anything! We met at the Ushuaia port in the morning and got on our small ship of about 40 people. We left the dock and made our way …

We tried to make the most of our limited time in Ushuaia. As soon as we arrived we have whisked away for a surprise adventure Franny had planned for us, an afternoon of horseback riding. I was truly delighted that we had the opportunity to ride horses, one of my favorite activities, at the end of the world. When our guide heard we were from …

We felt like we were the only ones on this sea of ice!

Big Ice Trek

Honestly, I was a bit nervous when we confirmed the Big Ice Trek. I thought there would be ice climbing, heaving myself up a cliff of slippery ice, and pictured myself sliding down a slope of ice into a glacial pit. Of course, that was not the case and Toby and I had a a blast. We were picked up in a big bus at El Galpon around 7:45 AM. This was a …

Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
