The main season in Chile runs from November to April - the Chilean spring/summer, when activities througout the country are possible. The Lake District is also worth visiting in autumn, when it's still very beautiful for simply relaxing and hiking. This area is prone to rain all year but is wettest in July and driest between January and March. Easter Island and the Atacama Desert are considered year-round destinations although there may be greater rainfall in the north during the month of February.

  • Easter Island

    At a Glance

    Today the adventure really ramps up as you board a flight to the amazingly unique and super remote Easter Island (known locally as Rapa Nui) in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. This tiny island, originally populated by Polynesians but a Chilean territory for some time, is about as far removed from feeling Latin American as is feasibly and geographically possible! During your time here, your guide will whisk you off to some of the island’s most interesting sites as you unpick myths and legends. Of course, there will be plenty of time for photo opportunities standing alongside the famous moai, or giant stone heads, a classic Instagram post! But you’ll soon realize there is much more to Easter Island as you learn about the fascinating history of its people, visit traditional ceremonial villages and hike around the island’s largest volcanic crater.

    Your hotel is the best on the island, with stunning architecture, huge windows from every room and a pool offering sweeping views, not to mention the amazing spa treatments on offer! When you're not on one of the many excursions on offer, there are plenty of cool places around the hotel to chillout, read a book and enjoy a beer. Enjoy waking up each morning to a delicious organic breakfast, which includes tropical fruits from its own garden and yummy homemade pastries. Dinners are mouthwatering local delicacies too, complete with the best Chilean wines or choice of local cocktails. And although much of the coastline is defined by rocky coves and tall cliffs, there are some sparkling white sandy beaches where you can go swimming too.

    Where to stay

    Explora Rapa Nui (3 nights)
Day 6 - 7
Day 7 - 10
  • Puerto Varas and surrounds

    At a Glance

    Your next stop is Chile’s picturesque Lake District region, where you’ll spend a few days at the luxurious and visually stunning Hotel AWA, located just outside the adventure hub of Puerto Varas, the perfect base for exploring the surrounding area’s natural beauty. The hotel sits on the shores of shimmering Lake Llanquihue, the turquoise waters reflecting the perfect conical peaks and plumes of smoke coming off the volcanoes on the horizon.

    Ranging from the extreme to the more sedate, there are numerous adventures to be had here and you can decide what you want to do once you arrive. Whether its climbing one of the volcanoes, enjoying a boat trip across the lake, hiking to the icy-blue Petrohue Falls, getting wet and wild while river-rafting, having a go at fly-fishing, or taking a bike out to visit the Bavarian influenced towns and sampling locally brewed craft beers, there’s plenty to keep you occupied!

    Back at the hotel, you can soothe achy limbs and joints at the spa and wellness center, complete with huge indoor/outdoor swimming pool (with awesome views of course), bubbling hot tubs and a variety of treatments and therapies to choose from. Once the evening draws in, you’ll want to snuggle up beside the roaring fireplace with a nice glass of wine while you update your friends and family back home with photos of your escapades so far. We suspect you’ll have worked up quite the appetite after all these activities, which is a good thing, as the hotel’s restaurant has a daily changing menu that heroes local produce, much of which is sourced from its own organic garden.
