Explora was excellent. The guides and the hotel staff were so helpful and friendly. We had Claudia for several of our excursions and she was so kind and helpful, and a great teacher. We really learned a lot from her. She took excellent pictures during my horse riding activity as well which I really appreciated. She knew I was nervous and stayed right with me to make sure I felt safe. We also really enjoyed Martin who took us to the base of the Towers, and my boyfriend went with Junior one day and said he was excellent as well. Really great guides! The staff was so friendly as well- special shout out to Lidia who was our server for dinner a few nights and who worked with the front desk and helped us with an issue with has with our rooms (way too hot). She learned what we liked and even brought me a special side of potatoes one night when she realized how much I loved them. So thoughtful. Really great staff all around! They let us check out late so we could shower after our last morning hike since the hotel was very busy which we greatly appreciated. Read the full review

The room was very comfortable and the view was extraordinary. They had a wide variety of excursions for different zones of the park and different levels of activity. Consuelo did a wonderful job setting up our original activity plan, and their system of daily meetings to review it worked great. The guides were so wonderful on the excursions, with their friendliness, knowledge, and ability Read the full review

1st class guides at both locations. All treks were amazing. I think highlighting the variety of terrain available in both parks, but particularly in Los Glaciares, would be worthwhile to mention to future travellers. Read the full review

1st class all around. Enjoyed the coziness of the rooms at Torres location and the location was incredible. Highlight of the trip might have been views of sunrise from the dining room. Great spa facility (including a chance to swim in a glacier lake!). Location and access with boat and hikes right out the door was fabulous. Great staff all around. Read the full review

The Explora hotel has many positives and very few negatives. The positives include the magical location, scenery and endless hiking opportunities. The staff is wonderful, and the amenities are practically top notch. The only negative would be that the food choices started getting a bit tiring after 4 days, but was still very good. It is also quite expensive, but I would say worth it. Read the full review

The location itself is unrivaled. The majestic massif looms and seems a bit different with every subtle change in lighting. The constant weather changes added to the mystery of the massive geological formation. The rest of the locale was equally beautiful with numerous glaciers and their ensuing lagoons, lakes and rivers. The colors were indescribable. Read the full review

An amazing place. Beautiful rooms, spacious common areas, just totally immersed in the scenery. They are careful to keep their environmental footprint light. The daily outings are very well executed. The guides became friends - they know the area’s history, ecology, and geology. Read the full review

The highlights of Explora were the excursions and the guides. There was a great camaraderie amongst the guides and the main focus at Explora seemed to be the excursions. They organized a great program for us to gradually increase altitude so that we made it to the summit of Toco on our last day there. Read the full review

Staying at Explora at Torres del Paine was hands down amazing. It is like staying at the Four Seasons but with a better scene since it is in the middle of nature. The guides and excursions were phenomenal, made changes to accommodate children, service was exceptional and food was delicious ..... The best experience we had throughout our 19 days in Patagonia.
