About Us
We are a company of lodges and explorations, present in the most remote corners of South America with the purpose of deeply understanding each territory and thus promoting its conservation and care
Why Explora
Exploring has been a part of human nature since the dawn of time. And it's been a part of us since we began, over 30 years ago. Our network of destinations located in the most remote corners of the planet has allowed us to preserve the natural beauty of the territories we explore. This is why we propose a new kind of journey and take care of everything: your accommodation, transportation, meals, and drinks. And, of course, all the explorations in the most fascinating places in the world.
We craft one-of-a-kind explorations so you can experience genuine immersion into the remote, from start to finish.
In 25 years’ experience, we gathered the expertise to guide you through each territory’s most exceptional exploration possibilities so your travel is no less than extraordinary. Everything is included throughout the entire experience.
Unravel remote territories with the experts. Our guides are qualified under the highest of standards by our exclusive Explora school of guides.
Our long-established presence in remote South America has shaped our knowledge on the territory, on exploration, and on conservation. Such know-how is vital for making sure our existence in the world’s most precious treasures only makes them bloom even more. Still preserving the most exceptional experience for the explorer.
We believe luxury is about having all the means necessary to make the most out of the experience, such as a cozy, welcoming environment, and authentically local gastronomic experiences.
This is why every Explora lodge behaves as a haven of rest and restoration amid the remote – to make sure each day in the territory is lived to the fullest. Count on relaxing massages, bubbling jaccuzis and deep-blue swimming pools, among other first-rate amenities at your service.
We are deeply committed to conserving the marvels we explore daily: unparalleled local nature, astounding culture, and rich heritage. Conservation-driven initiatives – like our lodge architecture, among other conscious processes we adopt – are a vital piece of this greater picture. Our most far-reaching initiative to date are the Explora Conservation Reserves: acres and acres of land under our conservation care located in Patagonia and in the Desert and Altiplano region in Chile. We are proud to be active in the quest of perpetuating the world’s rarest, most inestimable natural riches.
Present in the most precious locations of remote South America, we connect them all in an ever-exchanging network, so you can explore and discover in even greater depth.
With lodges in multiple positions across the continent, explorers can feel free to combine more than one destination in a single journey and craft a truly original and broad exploration experience.
Our programs in Patagonia connect destinations from lodge to lodge to give you an unparalleled experience. Get to know Explora Connects Patagonia.
