On May 23 through June 1, a group of buyers and media will attend AdventureWeek Tierra del Fuego to discover for themselves a land at the end of that world that has stirred the imaginations of explorers and adventurers for centuries. Tierra Del Fuego or “The Land of Fire” is a place far from everywhere and one of South America’s gateways to The White Continent of Antarctica. Offering incredible diversity of environments and landscapes, and stories of explorers and adventurers, this converging region of Chile and Argentina is where the Andes mountains greet the sea with high peaks on one side and glaciers on the other. In this free educational webinar, tourism specialists from the Argentinean and Chilean sides of Tierra Del Fuego will share insider's knowledge of the wide array of adventure opportunities, including the itinerary for AdventureWeek Tierra Del Fuego, a ten-day familiarization trip created especially for members and media from the Adventure Travel Trade Association (ATTA). Gabriella Stowell, the Adventure Travel Trade Association’s Latin America Regional Manager, will moderate. Webinar participants will get a sneak peek at:

  • The 2017 AdventureWeek preliminary itinerary, including activities and overnight locations
  • An outline of the strong tourist infrastructure of Tierra del Fuego Island, despite being known as “The End of the World”
  • The history and life of the Indigenous people of this unique region
  • Best spots for glacier activities, trekking, horseback riding, kayaking, heli-skiing, king penguin and other wildlife viewing, scenic flights, historical museums, gastronomy and more
