Patagonia (Chile/Argentina)

This region attracts 250,000 annual visitors, with southern summer (December–February) providing a seasonal flip for northern escape. Daily budgets range £70–120, though guided packages start at £200 per day. Flights from Santiago to Punta Arenas cost £150–250 one-way. Intense winds and untamed wilderness make it superior for seasoned adventurers seeking isolation, as Swoop Patagonia recommends securing permits six months in advance.
