Overview
For when your client wants to take on Chile or Bolivia, but they want to do it in a completely custom-made way, VM Elite is always ready to step forward. Its specialist team architects unforgettable experiences that bring travelers as close as can be to authentic life in these South American destinations but with layers of luxury woven through every moment of their trip.Carving up Chile into five core areas from the Atacama Desert in the north to Patagonia in the extreme south, high-end travelers can choose various itinerary options to take in the country’s lakes, islands, and cities. The Road Cycling Adventure, for example, will have them biking through the Chilean countryside and sampling its best wines including those from two world-famous wineries in the Casablanca Valley. For foodie clients, there’s the bespoke culinary journey that features stays in a handpicked selection of private homes from Chile’s tip to toe. Travelers will harvest vegetables, fish by boat, and accompany their private chef to Chile’s markets to experience its food scene intimately before cooking and feasting in the country’s most exclusive luxury villas. Skiing Patagonia’s slopes, fly fishing within the Futaleufú River Valley, and puma tracking for photography enthusiasts in Chile’s private reserves are just three more examples of its custom adventure trails, giving further flavor of the level of expertise and curation that go into these unforgettable expeditions.
The same is true of its bespoke Bolivian experiences where the VM Elite team unlocks everything from one-of-a-kind artistic encounters with private visits to local craft studios in La Paz to gourmet experiences hosted on the Uyuni Salt Flat, described as resembling ‘the scenery of dreams’ to wildlife expeditions in the Amazon.
VM Elite’s trails all include accommodation at heaven-sent hotels and lodges, delectable dishes with iconic wine pairings, as well as all tickets and equipment needed for whichever adventure is chosen.
Accommodations
With each varied adventure comes accommodation options just as diverse. The common ground though is world-class luxury, whether explorers find themselves in five-star yurt aside a natural hot spring or at the deluxe Kachi Lodge at the foot of Bolivia’s Tunupa volcano, where each domed accommodation has big bay windows to take in the vast views of the salt lake under starlight.The sleep-deeply story is naturally true of Chilean trail accommodations too, with resorts such as the rustic chic hacienda in Valle del Rosario setting the tone. An exclusive family estate at one with the lush green landscape will ensure guests want for nothing, as is precisely the case at the stunningly decorated Wara Hotel in the middle of a sea of dunes in Chile’s Atacama Desert.
