Why we travel in groups of no more than 4
Every Chile Memories trip is private and for no more than four people, always with a host guide and specialist guides for each activity. Here is why we do it this way.
When we started Chile Memories we made a decision that shapes everything else: our trips are private and for no more than four people. We never add strangers to your outing or fill up buses. Here is why.
You set the pace
In a small group nobody waits and nobody rushes. If a viewpoint grabs you, we stay a little longer. If you would rather have lunch early or skip a stop, we change it on the spot.
A host guide, not a loudspeaker
On every trip you are accompanied by a Chile Memories host guide: the person who runs the day, knows the places and their stories, and makes sure everything goes well. When the activity calls for it, such as surfing, rafting, high-mountain trekking or a helicopter flight, specialist guides for that activity join in.
Places a bus can't reach
We travel in a suitable private 4x4 vehicle. That lets us take gravel roads, reach hidden viewpoints and change the route when the weather says so.
A weather plan B
In Chile, the mountains and the sea are in charge. With a small group it is easy to rearrange the day: if the mountain road is closed or the sea is not right for surfing, we find the best alternative with you.
A lighter footprint
Travelling in small groups is also a way of looking after the places we visit and the communities that welcome us.
