Visiting both countries in one trip gives a fascinating glimpse into the similarities - and huge differences - between these two neighbouring but quite distinct South American countries. And of course you can see a wider range of stunning scenery. The tours below are mainly self drives starting in the Lake District or Punta Arenas, and work well as the necessary permits for cars to cross the border are obtained in advance.
