  Included in the tour

  A seasonal excursion

  This tour is only available during the tulip bloom, which lasts for a few weeks in spring. In 2026, the window is from October 15th to 31st. Outside of these dates, the fields are not in bloom and the tour is not offered. Therefore, it's advisable to book in advance: spaces for those weeks fill up quickly.

  The Tulip Field

  The field is located just outside Trevelin and plants over a million bulbs each season, arranged in colorful stripes that stand out against the snow-capped mountain range. It's one of the most photographed sights in Patagonia during spring. Entrance is included in the tour, and there's time to explore the paths between the rows and climb to the viewpoint.

  Trevelin, the Welsh village

  Trevelin means "mill town" in Welsh, and its history dates back to the 19th-century Welsh colonization of Patagonia. It preserves tea houses, the old flour mill converted into a museum, and a unique cultural identity. There is free time to explore the town center and, for those who wish, to enjoy traditional Welsh tea on their own.

  Nant and Fall Falls

  En route, you'll visit the Nant y Fall nature reserve, a series of waterfalls surrounded by forest, with short trails and viewpoints. The name, again in Welsh, means "stream and waterfall." Entrance is also included.

  This is our longest excursion: about 15 hours due to the distance to Chubut, departing very early and returning around 10 PM. Meals are not included, so it's a good idea to bring a packed lunch and snacks for the trip, as well as cash for meals in El Bolsón or Trevelin. Entrance fees to the Tulip Fields and Nant and Fall Waterfalls are included.

    No prior experience or special physical condition is necessary, but keep in mind that it's a 15-hour day trip, starting early in the morning and involving many hours in a vehicle. Anyone prone to motion sickness should bring medication. It's suitable for all ages, although with very young children, it's advisable to consider the length of the day.

  • Recommendations

    Pack layers of clothing and a windbreaker: it's spring, and in the countryside, under the open sky, the wind and temperature fluctuate considerably throughout the day. Wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes for the trails between the rows of trees and around the waterfalls. Bring a fully charged camera battery, because the countryside with the Andes Mountains in the background makes for some of the best photos of the year. Also pack sunglasses, sunscreen, water, and something to eat—especially useful for meals in El Bolsón or Trevelin.
