    Frances

    Asked on December 27th, 2024

    I would like to know how much will the inside flights will cost and how they can be booked. Also will it be possible to add a trip at the end of the tour to Easter island? How much would it be to have a single room too.

    • Responsible Travel South AmericaOperatorWritten December 2024

      Internal flights in Chile can be purchased directly through LATAM, or you can also check other airlines that operate within Chile, such as Sky Airline and JetSmart. These airlines offer reliable services between major destinations in the country. Yes, its possible to add a visit to easter islands. I suggest you visit the island for 4 days minimun. Its possible to have a single room. I need to calculate it and I will let you know the price.

    • Responsible Travel South AmericaOperatorWritten December 2024

      For a single traveler in March, the price for this trip is 7500 USD, excluding local flights within Chile.

    Asked on December 24th, 2024

    wondering how many flights I should be planning for, are you booking them for us and we pay the extra? and how much approximately would it be?

    Flights / Transfers
    Price / Availability
    • Responsible Travel South AmericaOperatorWritten December 2024

      For this tour you will need these internal flights: 1 – flight Santiago to San Pedro De Atacama, 2 – flight San Pedro De Atacama to Puerto Montt, 3 – flight Puerto Montt to Punta Arenas, 4 – flight Puerto Natales to Santiago. I recommend you to book them on your own it will be cheaper and I will help you.

      TravelerWritten December 2024

      it says minimum 2 people to book. is it to depart or I need to bring someone as I travel alone. I dont mind sharing with a stranger the rooms but I wont be able to find anyone to join. Should I look for another tour then?

    • Responsible Travel South AmericaOperatorWritten December 2024

      We recommend the tour to be a minimum of 2 people, but we can organize it for you too but it will increase the price. If you want I can customize it to try to keep a correct price. Or If you are interested on a precised part of Chile I can create a new tour specialy for you.
