Incredible experience! Two weeks later, I am still reminiscing about our stay at Estancia Patagonia. My family of four—my husband, our 8-year-old daughter, our 3-year-old son, and I—had an unbelievable trip filled with hiking to breathtaking waterfalls, exploring stunning fjords, horseback riding, and even hunting for fossils. We booked the 5-day Fjords and Highlands trip, and it was worth every moment.
We were greeted by Ian at the bus station in Puerto Natales, who drove us to the dock for our boat ride to La Barrosa, the ranch house where we stayed for three days. Our accommodations at La Barrosa were nothing short of perfect, and I will forever dream of that ranch. Gauchos Tomas and Juan, were remarkable hosts who ensured that every aspect of our stay was perfect. Their passion for Patagonia was contagious, and we learned so much about the land and its people from them. They truly were the best ambassadors!
The meals they prepared were nothing short of amazing, and the hikes they guided us on were absolutely beautiful. Horseback riding was the highlight of our trip, and Tomas and Juan's expertise made it a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, including our three-year-old. They provided a Patagonia-style saddle that allowed our son to ride with my husband comfortably on twice-daily rides and they provided appropriate challenges for our daughter, which helped her develop her riding skills. Their patience and care with our children made a lasting impression on us all.
Estancia Patagonia offers two gorgeous locations for the Fjords and Highlands trip, each unique and providing opportunities to explore different landscapes and connect with nature. Watching herds of guanaco, participating in a sheep shearing and herding demonstration, and hunting for fossils at the Los Baguales ranch, were just some of the incredible activities we enjoyed.
Ian and his team did a fantastic job ensuring that we had the best experience possible. Communication through email and WhatsApp was clear and timely, demonstrating their commitment to a first-class program.
We have already contacted them about signing up for the 6-day horseback trip next year, and we can't wait to go back! If you're looking for an unforgettable adventure in Patagonia, I highly recommend Estancia Patagonia!

The people are amazing, the food (and wine) is unbelievably good, and the horse riding surreal. Our best day and experience so far in Patagonia.
Thank you for an unforgettable day!
