2 Nights

Buenos Aires

Spread along the western shore of the Río de la Plata in eastern Argentina, Buenos Aires has served as the country’s federal capital since 1880 and remains its cultural and political heart. Grand Belle Époque boulevards, ornate European-influenced architecture and a vibrant street life shaped by successive waves of Italian, Spanish and Jewish immigration give the city a character unlike anywhere else in South America. Each neighborhood feels like a world unto itself. Tree-lined avenues in Recoleta are lined with grand historic palaces and marble mausoleums, while the cobblestone streets of San Telmo wind past antique shops, galleries and artisan studios. In La Boca, brightly painted timber-and-metal façades reflect the neighborhood’s colorful immigrant heritage. Across the city, chef-driven parrillas serve Argentina’s celebrated beef, paired with generous pours of Malbec from Mendoza. As night falls the city shifts, as hidden milongas draw seasoned dancers and curious newcomers into low-lit rooms, where the bandoneón sets the emotional pulse of the night. Here, tango is more than a performance: it is a language of intimacy and improvisation, carrying longing, grief, humor and joy across worn wooden floors. Beyond its iconic neighborhoods and nightlife, Buenos Aires’ bookshops, cafés and plazas call for you to linger. This is a city where history and reinvention coexist, and where the boundary between everyday life and culture is often wonderfully blurred.

Torres del Paine

Rising from the southern reaches of Chilean Patagonia, Torres del Paine National Park is one of South America’s defining wilderness landscapes. Ancient glaciers carved the terrain over millennia, leaving behind a dramatic tableau of granite spires, turquoise lakes and sweeping golden steppe that stretches toward the horizon. The park’s signature towers, the three sheer columns of pale rock that seem to pierce the Patagonian sky, anchor the landscape visually and spiritually. Below them, the Grey Glacier calves into a lake of electric blue. Guanacos move in unhurried herds across open grasslands, while Andean condors ride the fierce thermal winds overhead. The elusive puma also inhabits this territory, moving quietly through the scrub and rocky outcrops. What draws discerning travelers here is the ability to experience the raw wilderness while accessing comfortable accommodations. Eco-lodges position guests directly within the landscape, their floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Cuernos del Paine as the last light fades. Expert local naturalists guide each day, turning every trail and shoreline into a deeper encounter with one of the planet’s great wild places.

What Our Guests Say

“I organized a customized trip to Patagonia and Santiago, Chile. Fabulous! Every detail was attended to. Initially, it took a few back-and-forth to get it right, but in the end, I could not have asked for better. I look forward to traveling with them again.”

March 2025 Rating 5/5

“I always do my research on countries before I travel. Then I look for a company who can get me where I want to go with the best possible situations. I found that with Enchanting Travel in my quest for a great trip to Chile July, 2025. The transfers between hotels and airports were always on time. Drivers were congenial as well as being knowledgeable and safe in their driving. The guides could not have been better. Accommodations were terrific and well located as well as being clean, comfortable, and having great and welcoming staff. The tour was well coordinated, just as I planned with tour consultant, Bo, beforehand. The liaisons during the tour were always prompt in answering any questions as well on checking every day to see if all was well. The tours were perfect in showing us all we needed to see and experience. An all around wonderful trip. You cannot go wrong choosing Enchanting Travels for your next adventure.”

July 2025 Rating 5/5

“We’re very appreciative of the efforts of Alison Felfoldi and Camila Corvalan at Enchanting Travels in arranging a recent trip for us to Iguazu Falls and Patagonia. Alison gently helped us set realistic itinerary expectations, listened to our excursion and lodging preferences, and developed plans for a trip that included hiking, horseback riding and boat tours. Each leg of the trip was seamless and relaxed, and was laid out clearly in the Trip Agent app. Camila checked with us daily during our trip. This was our 2nd time using Enchanting Travels, and we felt well taken care of both times.”

January 2025 Rating 5/5

“We had such an amazing experience using Enchanting Travels for a recent trip we took to Buenos Aires. Every detail was covered and the hotels, activities, drivers and guides were excellent. It was a perfect vacation and would definitely use Enchanting Travels for future travels.”

March 2025 Rating 5/5

“Enchanting Travels curated a 10 day private tour of northern Chile and Argentina for me. The planning took in all my requests, but they made suggestions for what to cut out when not everything was possible. I had a local concierge during the tour always available by WhatsApp. When an airline postponed my flight twice and I lost a half day of touring, he took care of everything and all I had to do was keep in contact by WhatsApp and do what he told me to do. I never could have handled it all on my own. I experienced everything as planned. I highly recommend Enchanting Travels!”

November 2025 Rating 5/5

“I highly recommend Enchanting Travels. Service was outstanding from planning through execution, with great communication throughout. Our travel consultant was thorough and inventive, providing excellent options after our initial talk. Our trip coordinator was equally terrific, offering timely advice and local recommendations that truly bore fruit. We could always count on their responsive support both before and during our journey. We’ll use Enchanting Travels again.”
