I took a bus tour here for one day, and it was totally not worth it. First off, my guide didn't speak any english. second, the tour started at this cave that was really not that special and took most of the morning. Then Torres del paine itself was alright. I was expecting more spectacular but it's more ordinary than... More

The cleanest air imaginable. Towering jagged fingers of rock rising from crystal clear lakes. Wildlife on overload - after the 40th condor sighting in a day, we couldn't take any more! Largely deserted national park is beautifully maintained, only scarred by a bad fire a couple of years ago caused by an irresponsible camper. A place that will stay in... More

We had a hiking and kayaking tour therough Antares, who were aboslutely fantastic! Our guides were Tadeo(hiking) and Abi (kayak). Both sides of the tour were second to none. We trekked the W trek which was awe inspiring. Tad took us to a few secret spots off the beaten track that only locals know about for magnificent views and photo... More

Mountains, lakes, glaciers, icebergs and wildlife. A magical place, a must visit location. Choose a good tour company as its a long rough ride from Puerto Natales.

My partner and I did the "W" trek during the start of May which was a risk with the weather but paid off. There was a lot of different types of weather - snow, rain, sun and wind which gave a great taste of the weather Patagonia is subjected to. The hike was absolutely amazing. So many different environments that... More

My husband and I hired a car for three days from Puerto Natales (from 4-6 May) and stayed in a small 2 bedroom cabin at Hostel Lago Tyndall (the options for accommodation in or near the park are very limited after April), which is just outside the main administration entrance, on the banks of Rio Serrano. There were no boats... More

We took a one day bus trip in Torres del Paine through Turismo Zaajh. Unfortunately, it was a very overcast day, so we did not see the full beauty of the area. What we did see was very pretty and scenic. We enjoyed the tour. I especially loved seeing all the guanacos.

The National Park is huge, so expect a lot of driving on dusty gravel roads. The hike to the Torres themselves takes about four hours there and four hours back again. It isn't a difficult hike but a long one. The Torres are worth it though. As the weather is rather unpredictable, you have better chances of seeing them if... More

The mountains are so beautiful. They are everywhere!! But be prepared for super windy conditions (80 to 100km/hr winds was posted at the ranger station) and a quick changing climate (rain)

Despite we spent only 3 days there we succeeded to climb to Torres, visited Glaciar Gray and Cuernos del Paine ,other attractions and unforgetable views at the morning or evening.It ´s a lot of walk, hike and drive but it´s sure you will love it as we did. Amazing place in Patagonia which should not be missed when there.
