The Patagonian trips with a paddle in them, sorted by price. In every case it is a half day on the water inside a wider itinerary, not an expedition.

Kayaking in Patagonia is not one activity. A glacial lake at El Chaltén, an Andean lake at Bariloche, a salt gulf at Puerto Madryn and the Beagle Channel are four different propositions, and what separates them is not the scenery but how cold the water is and how hard the wind blows on it.
The Andean lakes are the gentle end: sheltered by forest, warm enough in summer that a capsize is an inconvenience rather than an emergency, and suitable for people who have never held a paddle.
Where to start
Paddling in the gulf at Puerto Madryn puts sea lions in the water beside you, which is the reason to do it. It is also open water, so it runs in the morning before the afternoon wind gets up.
Go in the morning
The Beagle Channel sits a few degrees above freezing all year and the operators there use dry suits rather than wetsuits. It is the most memorable of the four and the one with the least margin for improvising.
Cold, and properly run
The walking those trips are built around is at Patagonia hiking and trekking, the wildlife in the same water at Patagonia wildlife, and the region in full at Patagonia tours.

Every quote we send lists this in writing, trip by trip. As a rule, this is how a Patagonia package is built.
Hotels selected and checked by our team; private transfers between airports, hotels and excursions; excursions with English-speaking local guides; entrance fees to Los Glaciares and Tierra del Fuego national parks; daily breakfast and the meals marked day by day; a local WhatsApp support line for the whole trip.
International flights to and from Argentina; travel insurance; meals not marked in the itinerary; personal expenses and gratuities; optional activities, which we price in writing beforehand. Domestic flights inside Patagonia are quoted separately or included depending on the package, and your quote states which, with the amount, so the total is clear before you book.
Patagonian wind changes plans, and we plan for it. Every key day has a same-region backup: if the wind closes the glacier boat, you see Perito Moreno from the walkways instead; if the Fitz Roy viewpoint is in cloud, we swap days inside your itinerary. Wherever the schedule allows, we rebook the highlight inside your trip at no extra cost.
