Quark Expeditions has blazed a new trail in expedition travel with its inaugural helicopter-supported voyage through Chilean Patagonia.
The 15-day Essential Patagonia: Chilean Fjords and Torres del Paine begins at Buenos Aires with embarkation from Ushuaia, and includes Cape Horn, a transit through the Beagle Channel, then into Chile’s network of fjords and channels, featuring helicopter flightseeing and Zodiac cruises along a stretch of coastline that’s known for some of the most remote and picturesque landscapes on Earth.
Highlights comprise heli flight-seeing with views of Patagonia’s mountain-top glaciers and ice caps; heli landing at the peaks of Canal de las Montanas (Channel of the Mountains) for views of the surrounding fjords; immersive cultural experiences at the town of Puerto Natales; an array of wildlife and bird-watching; hiking and photography tours; paddling and kayaking excursions; and journeying down Iceberg Alley.
Quark Expeditions’ next departure of its Patagonia voyage embarks March 13 to 27, 2025, and March 12 to 26, 2026.
