Atacama Patagonia Antarctica Walk and wildlife holiday to Chile and Antarctica. 29 days, from £7625 (Group tour). Pura Aventura »

For animal lovers with an adventurous streak this stark angular backdrop of glaciers, icebergs, mountain peaks and unpredictable seas provides the perfect wilderness setting for whale and wildlife watching. Fin, sei, humpback, orca, and minke whales live in these chilly waters as well as several seal and dolphin species, penguin colonies and other hardy seabirds.
