The good national park tours fill up long before the average ones do. These 9 hold up, with current prices, what is actually included, and the one thing to know before you commit.
Snorkel Laughing Bird Caye National Park from Placencia on a 6-hour trip with a licensed guide, picnic lunch, and lots of reef life.
“The snorkel experience was awesome. The hosts were informative and friendly. We saw so many varieties of sea life. Loved it.”
From Punta Arenas, go see king penguins at a 15-meter viewpoint in Tierra del Fuego, with ranch stops, a ferry, and wildlife chances.
“It was fabulous to see the penguins. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. It’s a long day but worth it.”
Full-day Torres del Paine from El Calafate with 4x4 comfort, Grey Glacier, Pehoe Lake, Salto Grande, and hotel pickup, lunch included.
“I’m so glad I did this. Santiago, Kati, and Juan were upbeat and fantastic the whole day. They gave good information but did not lecture or talk nonstop. My favorite part was when Kati asked if we would be silent for just one minute hiring the walk so that we could hear the air, the birds, and the sounds of nature. I almost wish like we could have a library section of a tour to enjoy the quietness of nature. LOL. It is a long bouncy ride there and back for a total or 8 hours on the bus. But it was worth it. We could have skipped the last…”
River tubing and jungle hiking in Belize’s Cockscomb Jaguar Preserve from Placencia, ending at Ben’ Bluff waterfall with lunch included.
“You cancelled our tour. 13 hours beforehand. We were very disappointed. We booked this with you months ahead of time. Where’s my refund?”
16-hour Torres del Paine day trip from El Calafate via Chile border, with guided walks to Cuernos del Paine and Pehoé Lake.
“Avoid! I booked this more expensive tour because it said small group of 10 people max. we were 40 in a small cramped bus for 17 hours. all the tours 1 day torres del paine are with another company, so this is just an agency booking the bus for you. I don't recommend booking with them they charge more for the same thing and are wrongly describing the tour! the seats in the bus are very small, we were 2 normal sized adults. because it is a large group everything takes longer.”
Spend 10 hours from Puerto Natales touring key Torres del Paine viewpoints, plus Mylodon Cave, with bilingual guiding and an easy lake walk.
“Had loads of fun admiring the park and getting blown away by the wind lol. Our guide, Gabriella, was very lively and knowledgeable and kept everyone’s attention. Also felt v safe with Alex’s driving skills.”
10-hour Torres del Paine day trip from Puerto Natales with Milodon Cave, Laguna Amarga wildlife, Salto Grande, and Grey Glacier floes.
Full-day Torres del Paine trip from Puerto Natales with Laguna Amarga, Grey Glacier views at Grey Beach, Lake Grey trekking, and Cueva del Milodón.
“It was amazing! Victor and the driver are very friendly and showed us everything! It is totally worth it and we really enjoyed it!”
