Swoop Patagonia (0117 369 0196, www.swoop-patagonia.com), award winning travel specialists to this unique destination, have launched a small group trekking tour that allows travellers to experience both Torres del Paine in Chile and Los Glaciares National Park in Argentina in one combined trip. The 13-day 'Swoop Tour: Fitzroy and Paine Explorer ', is led by experienced local guides, has a maximum group size of 8 and guaranteed departures dates from November 2016 to February 2017.

Torres del Paine in Chile and Los Glaciares in Argentina are two of the most dramatic and iconic areas in the whole of Patagonia. The parks include towering pinnacles of granite carved out of immense dynamic glaciers with stunningly celestial glacial lakes and magical lenga forests at their foot.  The Swoop Tour: Fitzroy and Paine Explorer has been designed by Swoop to be a perfect combination of treks in these two famous national parks, allowing travellers to get an excellent feel and experience of each.

The team at Swoop have created the tour to be the very best experience for first time visitors to Patagonia. Tour highlights include approaching Torres del Paine by zodiac boat, hiking the famous 'W' trek, visiting Perito Moreno Glacier, hiking to the base of Mount Fitz Roy and enjoying a final night celebration with a traditional lamb asado and stay at an estancia. Accommodation along the trek has also been carefully picked by the Swoop team for comfort and ambience.

The Swoop Tour: Fitzroy and Paine Explorer costs £3000 per person and includes meals, accommodation, transfers to and from the airport, and a guide. To book, or for more information on Swoop Patagonia, visit www.swoop-patagonia.com, 0117 369 0196.

About Swoop Patagonia/Antarctica

Swoop began in 2010, born out of a passion for Patagonia by founder, Luke Errington. Luke first visited Patagonia over 15 years ago, quickly fell in love, and decided to launch the first online guidebook to the region. In 2013 Swoop Antarctica was launched, following requests from customers to help them discover the White Continent. Today Swoop helps over 1,500 people a year organise incredible Patagonian and Antarctic experiences. Swoop's exclusive focus on this corner of the world means that whatever kind of adventure you're looking for, Swoop has it covered. Swoop works closely with a network of over 100 local partners in Patagonia and all the Antarctic expedition operators, so it has the unique relationships, knowledge and experience to plan trips that match travellers' dreams, budgets and appetite for adventure.
