Explora offers extensive walking programs in around Torres del Paine in that national park of the same name. The programme is set on a 4 day cycle with guests arriving and leaving in unison every 4th day. We stayed for 8 days, over two cycles--which we learned only very few guests do. A 4-day stay might be bothersome for some.... more

It was a far cry from the previous 3 weeks in South America in that it was not as luxurious as the other accommodations. Do go there expecting this 5 star luxury hotel with all the extras. I went there to see the towers and was hoping for something nice. The trip was a long long long 5 hours in... more

There are not enough superlatives to describe our experience. We stayed 8 nights because friends who had stayed there recommended us to stay as long as we could. We were so glad that we did not have to leave after 4 nights as most guests were doing. We agree with all the positive comments in the previous 2 reviews. The... more

Explora - Hotel Salton Chico Torres del Paine, Magallanes, Chile We recently returned home from three weeks of driving, flying, and trekking in Patagonia. Wishing to depart Chile on a “high note” we decided to spend our last four night in the Explora - Hotel Salto Chico in Torres del Paine National Park. There are several less expensive alternatives for... more

We have done a lot of travel around the world, and I have to say that the Explora experience has been one of the most memorable ones ever! I was apprehensive because of the price and the fact that we had to book a minimum of 4 nights. We hate cruises and were afraid this would feel like one; boy,... more

we recently stayed for 4 nights at the explora patagonia. it is truly a wonderful experience. it is a huge pain in the neck to get there...so make sure you go for as long as you desire ...because it is a long trip. from santiago (which for us was a long trip) it is a 2.5 hour flight and a... more

After traveling to Explora Hotel Salto Chico En Patagonia, I feel privileged and honored to have experienced such an amazing hotel, staff, guide service, and scenery. In hindsight, I can't believe I almost passed on making the trek to Patagonia out of fear of too much travel. The reward of top notch food, wine, accommodations, service and breathtaking views makes... more

We could rave for hours about our experience at this hotel but will keep it short. It is simply the best hotel we have ever stayed at. The location is breathtaking and the quality of the food is exceedingly high but what sets it apart is the quality of the staff. Nothing is too much trouble and the guides that... more

Let me begin by saying that the hotel is located five and one half hours from the airport by van. If you do not believe that anything is worth that kind of travel, stop here. For the record, had I known about the extended van trip I may have not come at all. I hate long car rides. I can... more
