Daily Itinerary

Day 1 Oct 23, 2026 - Ushuaia

The world's southernmost city, Ushuaia overlooks Beagle Channel, named after the ship that took Charles Darwin to the bottom of the world. Founded just over one hundred years ago, this rustic town is situated amidst incredible snowcapped mountains, dramatic waterfalls, massive glaciers, and a forest known for its red foliage. Tierra del Fuego, the "Land of Fire," twelve miles to the west of Ushuaia, is known for its glacial landscape and its national park, which is a bird-watcher's paradise.

Day 2 Oct 24, 2026 - Cape Horn

Rounding the extreme southern tip of South America, you'll be awestruck by the rugged beauty and imposing vision of Cape Horn, a craggy, massive rocky point that was the bane of early explorers.

Day 3 Oct 24, 2026 - Wulaia Bay (Bahia Wulaia)
Day 4 Oct 25, 2026 - Pia Glacier

Within the Beagle Channgel and chiseled among the Darwin mountains in Patagonia, the Pia Glacier is a highlight among the "Avenue of Glaciers", viewable by hiking up to a vista point where you can watch and listen to the loud shifts of ice and earth.

Day 5 Oct 25, 2026 - Porter Glacier
Day 6 Oct 26, 2026 - Seno Agostini
Day 7 Oct 26, 2026 - Aguila Glacier

Aguila Glacier can be found when cruising though the majestic Agostini Sound. When arriving at the glacier you are taken back by the blue ice and surrounded by picturesque views all around.

Day 8 Oct 26, 2026 - Condor Glacier
Day 9 Oct 27, 2026 - Isla Magdalena

Magdalena Island is a small island in the Patagonia region of Chile. The island is part National Park dedicated to preserving the indigenous wildlife on the island. You will see burrows built by penguins and other birds all around the island. Visitors may take a walk up the hill to the island's Lighthouse. It is a working lighthouse that guides ships on their way through the Strait of Magellan. Inside you will find some articles about its history. But by far the most impressive sight to visitors is viewing the thousands of bustling penguins and birds on the island and in the surrounding waters.

Day 10 Oct 27, 2026 - Punta Arenas

Punta Arenas is the southernmost city on Earth, overlooking the Straits of Magellan. Situated astride one of the world's historic trade routes, its prosperity has risen and fallen with that trade. Punta Arenas enjoyed its first great boom during the California Gold Rush, when it served as a haven for great clipper ships. Although the port's importance diminished after the opening of the Panama Canal, the city reached even greater prosperity early in this century as the center of Chile's international wool trade. Today, Punta Arenas reflects a great mix of cultures, from English sheep ranchers to Portuguese sailors, and it remains an utterly fascinating testament to the Chile's rich history. Punta Arenas is also the starting point for excursions to some of the most spectacular scenery in the world.
