Certification
We are one of the only operations in Patagonia that can guarantee your guide will be fully certified and legal to operate in each national park you visit. We take great pride in our constant training, up-grading and certifications. We are qualified to work as both traditional sightseeing guides and mountain guides, as well as whitewater guides. Our guides blend natural history and culture with adventure and exploration. It's a rare combination that will make your trip much safer and more enjoyable.

Environmental Commitment
What makes Patagonia so special are the endless horizons of untouched wilderness. Here, you can drink the water from the streams and live in harmony with the natural world. This is at the heart of our love affair with Patagonia, and protecting the wilderness is essential for so many reasons. We keep high environmental standards and follow the leave no trace philosophy.
