Looking to travel independently?

Many of our customers ask us to support them with just one part of their trip. They may need help deciding between glamping sites or want us to match them with a trek or other guided activity, but are happy to book their hotels and flights themselves.

1

Booking part of your trip with us costs the same as if you went directly to a local company in Patagonia, but there are some key differences. After you have booked with Swoop, you benefit from our expertise in matching you to the right trip or activity, along with access to our extensive advice and travel guides.

2

Swoop specialists, Danny, Chloe or Sarah, are based in Chile full time and know the ins and outs of all of our trips, having experienced many of them first hand. They can help match you with the right trips and a local guide over the telephone. When you’re confident you’ve picked the perfect option for you, then we’ll create your itinerary, send you a secure payment link for a small deposit to get your trip booked. You’ll then gain access to our Adventure Planner which is full of information to prepare you for your trip.

Looking to join a group tour or travelling alone?

Joining a group tour is a great way to see the iconic sights of Patagonia, enjoy the camaraderie of being amongst fellow travellers, and keep costs down, whilst avoiding any of the stresses of travelling alone. We work with several different operators who run group tours and we run our own, too. Our group tours are especially popular with solo travellers.

Huge advantage of having transport between properties. Travel was relatively seamless. Long journey by car, but having the logistics mapped out and coordinated by Swoop with a pre-arranged driver made for a smooth experience. The border crossing would have been quite tricky on our own by car. Read the full review

This was an incredibly difficult trip to plan. Swoop and Walk Patagonia were so helpful in rescheduling and adjusting itineraries and lodging with all of our changes. Swoop was generous enough to postpone our trip and make all the new arrangements for a later date because of COVID. Given all of the things that could have made this trip a disaster, luckily Swoop was flexible and worked with us to make our trip a tremendous success. Read the full review

Great personal service. Extensive information, quick and efficient and so helpful when he had questions. Very knowledge. Brilliant at organising Zoom calls to discuss the holiday and any questions. So good to have one person who "looked after us" - Carys . She went above and beyond what we would expect. Your partners, particularly Bird Chile are brilliant. Cannot fault Swoop at all.
