Lana, my trip planner, connected with me on our very first call and never dropped one detail in creating the most perfect trip for my daughter, grand daughter and myself that I could ever imagine. She knew exactly what I was after and arranged every last detail for me perfectly. I was able to call her with some on-the-fly changes to the itinerary and she and her staff were ON it immediately! We were fortunate beyond belief. Kudos to Elevate Destinations!.

CHILE
Chile offers an extensive and vast wilderness. Take a trip to see a wondrous region beloved by the visionary Douglas Tompkins (founder of Esprit and North Face) who bought and protected vast acreages of land so that future generations could enjoy its splendor.
Lack of infrastructure can make regions of Patagonia challenging to navigate on your own. Elevate can help you access some of the greatest private lodges and nature preserves where you can have a unique wilderness experience combined with total comfort.
Fatangue Hotel and Spa
With over 33,000 acres of private land, this hotel and spa offers you a radically different holiday experience. With 65 miles of private hiking trails, on-site spa, lakes and mountains, you’ll have a vast and private park at your fingertips. Fantangue is great on its own or combined with another destination.
Pata Lodge
Head into utopia at this incredible property. Pata is a sustainability-driven ecolodge that is perfect for families. It offers a comfortable, private experience with sandy beaches along crystal clear rivers, lakes, sailing in pristine fjords, mountains, and an organic farm. Raft on one of the world’s best whitewater rivers, and enjoy plenty of outdoor space where kids can run free and you can recharge and commune with nature.
Vira Vira Lodge in Pucon
This gorgeous retreat is nestled within a lush 54-acre estate that is part of a larger park landscape. There are lakes, rivers, and stunning views of the Villarrica Volcano. Luxuriously equipped suites and villas make this a perfect retreat for privately guided activities. You can take a trip to the hot springs, enjoy some farm-to-table fine dining, or head out on the helicopter to take in the views from above.

ARGENTINA
Patagonia – Exclusive Wilderness
Aguas Arriba is a small, rustic but homey lodge with only six rooms. You have to take a boat to get there — a scenic sail past glaciers — and once you arrive, you’re on the doorstep of a wild, and private version of Southern Patagonia. From the lodge, enjoy impressive views of the towering Mt. Fitzroy and lots of trekking opportunities. This lodge is also great for fly fishing.
Wine Country Retreat
If wine country calls, Entre Cielos is a fabulous way to unwind and bask in the glorious sunshine of Mendoza, Argentina. Nights full of stargazing and wine tasting, and days spent exploring, would make for a welcoming couples retreat! The hotel and spa are set on a 20-acre vineyard with views of the soaring Andes Mountains. The spa and hammam on site offer various treatments for added relaxation.
