Total autonomy in Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego

With a camper 4x4, you can:

  • sleep in nature,
  • cook in your vehicle,
  • adapt your route to weather and road conditions,
  • explore one of the wildest regions on Earth at your own pace.

Drive the legendary Ruta 40

Ruta 40 is one of South America’s most iconic highways, running parallel to the Andes for more than 5,000 km.
