The published price is not what you will spend. Every operator below gets the same treatment: their price, plus what the package leaves out, next to its source.

In short: Torres del Paine W Trek costs from $2,001 to $5,694 per person all-in across the 13 operators we compare, with items an operator does not mention counted as extra. Package prices as published start from $1,629, for two people sharing a room. Prices were read from the operators' own pages, the newest on 2026-09-24.

All-in is the package price plus everything the package leaves out, per person, two travelling together.

What all-in includes

All-in is the package price plus what the package leaves out (flights, meals, hotel, porter, gear) plus what nobody includes (tips, insurance, visa, water and Wi-Fi). Per person, two people travelling together, twin share. International flights are not counted.

When an operator's page does not say whether something is included, we show a range: the lower figure assumes it is in the price, the upper figure adds it. 8 of 13 operators here leave at least one item unstated, worth up to $489. The list is sorted by the upper figure, so that nobody looks cheaper by saying less. You can change that under More sorting.

Your budget

Pick an operator, then make it yours: how you travel, how much you spend on the trail, what you need to rent. Everything the operator leaves out is already in, and the result is per person.

What is actually in a price

These are the costs that decide whether a $1,300 package ends up cheaper than a $1,800 one. Figures are what we add when an operator does not include the item.

Torres del Paine entrance, foreign adult, 2+ day pass
$51 per trip
Official 2026 tariff: CLP 48,500 for a foreign adult (18 and over) on the pass for two or more days, valid up to 10 consecutive days; the day pass is CLP 32,400. Sold only online through pasesparques.cl, ahead of the visit. CONAF's new pass system has applied since 1 May 2026; GreatChile's copy of the table says the rates run to 31 December 2026, so a rise in January 2027 is possible. CLP 946.5 per USD (open.er-api.com, 2026-09-24). Most W packages read include the pass; G Adventures does not mention it and Patagonia Hero leaves it out. source
Bus to the park and back, trailhead shuttle and one Pehoe catamaran leg
$66 per trip
Regular bus Puerto Natales to Laguna Amarga or Pudeto and back CLP 28,000 (about USD 30), the Laguna Amarga to Welcome Centre shuttle CLP 4,500 one way (about 5, Bus-Sur's own page), and one catamaran leg between Pudeto and Paine Grande at USD 31 (official): 30 + 5 + 31. A W walked either way uses one shuttle leg and one boat leg. The bus fare is second-hand: this guide says it checked Bus-Sur's fares in August 2026, and other 2026 guides give CLP 18,000 to 25,000 return. Every W package read includes all of it. source
Regular bus Puerto Natales to the park and back
$30 per trip
CLP 15,000 one leg or 28,000 return to Laguna Amarga or Pudeto, 25,000 / 40,000 to the Grey sector; departures 07:00 and 12:00, plus 14:30 and 18:00 from November. Operators: Bus-Sur, Buses Gomez, Turismo Zaahj, Buses Base Torres. Bus-Sur's own Torres del Paine page shows no fare and busesgomez.cl did not answer, so the fare is second-hand; Worldly Adventurer (2026-09-10) says about CLP 18,000 return and jtreks (2026-04-15) about 25,000. Reference line, counted inside the transport line. source
Pehoe catamaran, Pudeto to Paine Grande, one leg
$31 per trip
Official fare for the 2026-27 season: CLP 28,000 or USD 31 per person per leg; children 10 and under free with an adult. Up to four crossings a day from November, two a day in early October; cancelling 72 hours ahead refunds CLP 23,000. A classic W uses one leg (starting or ending at Paine Grande); a route that goes in and out through Paine Grande needs two. Reference line, counted inside the transport line. source
Hotel in Puerto Natales, twin share
$83 per night
Much Better Adventures sells pre- and post-trip nights in Puerto Natales from USD 165 a double or twin room, 82.50 each for two sharing. The first bus to the park leaves at 07:00 and the boat-linked bus gets back in the evening, so one night before and one after is the usual minimum; every package read that includes Natales nights (G Adventures, Intrepid, Much Better Adventures, Patagonia Hero, Wildland) includes two. Hostel private rooms are cheaper, USD 50 to 70 (Latam Travellers, May 2026). source
Airport to Puerto Natales and back
$20 per trip
Punta Arenas (PUQ) has daily flights and is 3 to 3.5 hours away: the bus is about CLP 10,000 or USD 13 each way per Intrepid (G Adventures says 8,000 / 12; a 2026 guide 9,000 in high season), about 20 for both ways. Puerto Natales airport (PNT) has fewer flights; a taxi to town is CLP 8,000 a car per Much Better Adventures or 25,000 per Intrepid, 8 to 26 each for two sharing both ways. Much Better Adventures, Patagonia Hero, Wildland and Cascada include the pickup. source
Porter for your own bag between refugios
$400 per trip
Andean Trails adds a porter carrying 15 kg on days 2 to 4 for USD 800 in total, 400 each for two sharing. Patagonia Hero lists porters at USD 165 a day; G Adventures sells 5 kg or 10 kg of porter help with no price in the page text; Chile Nativo and 10Adventures offer a private porter on request, unpriced. Cascada Expediciones includes a porter for a 5 kg dry bag. On most W treks you carry your own pack. source
Full board in the refugios
$108 per trek day
2026-27 full board (dinner, breakfast, box lunch): USD 140 at the Las Torres camps (Central, Chileno, Cuernos, Frances), 110 at the Vertice camps (Paine Grande, Grey); half board 90 and 76. A 5-day W with two nights on each side eats four full boards plus a lunch on day 1, about 538, or 108 a trek day. Every W package read includes meals on the trail. source
Lunch and dinner in the refugios
$87 per trek day
Single meals 2026-27: Vertice breakfast USD 34, lunch or box lunch 36, dinner 53; Las Torres breakfast 40, box lunch 40, dinner 70. Lunch and dinner for two nights on each side plus a lunch on day 1 is about 436, or 87 a trek day. source
Sleeping bag and trekking poles rental
$69 per trip
Five days' hire in Puerto Natales: sleeping bag (Marmot Trestles, -9 C) CLP 7,000 a day at Erratic Rock, 35,000 or USD 37; poles CLP 6,000 a day per G Adventures, 30,000 or 32 (Erratic Rock 7,000, Rental Natales USD 8). Hiring the bag at the camps instead is USD 38 a night at Vertice and about 40 at Las Torres (fully equipped camp 160 against 120 without bag). Of the W packages read only G Adventures asks you to bring or hire your own bag. source
Sleeping bag rental
$37 per trip
Erratic Rock, Puerto Natales: Marmot Trestles 15 (-9 C) at CLP 7,000 a day, 35,000 for five days. Rental Natales lists bags at USD 8 a day (page shows '$', read as dollars). At the camps: Vertice USD 38 a night; Las Torres' fully equipped camp costs about 40 a night more than the semi-equipped one without a bag. source
Trekking pole rental, pair
$32 per trip
G Adventures: walking poles CLP 6,000 a day, 30,000 for five days, and highly recommended. Erratic Rock charges 7,000 a day (Leki or Black Diamond), Rental Natales USD 8 a day. source
Two-person tent rental, shared
$32 per trip
Erratic Rock rents a 2-person MSR tent at CLP 12,000 a day, 60,000 for five days, about 32 each for two. At the camps Vertice charges USD 58 a night for a 4-season tent for two plus 13 a person for the pitch; Las Torres sells a pitched tent with mat from USD 120 a person a night (November to March, two sharing). Every W package read includes the tent or a bed; reference line. source
Tips for guides and porters
$12 per trek day
G Adventures suggests USD 40 for the trekking guides over three days, 15 for porters and 5 for camp staff, 60 for its W, plus about 10 a day for its tour leader. Much Better Adventures and G Adventures' full circuit say 5-10 a person a day for local guides; Wildland says 5-10 percent of the trip price. Figure is 60 spread over a 5-day W. Guided treks only. source
Travel insurance with trekking cover
$140 per trip
Trekking-grade cover for two weeks in Patagonia costs USD 80-200 per Latam Travellers (updated 2026-05-22); the figure is the middle. G Adventures requires at least USD 200,000 medical and evacuation cover and will not start you without proof; Wildland requires at least 30,000 of evacuation cover. Older travellers or pre-existing conditions cost more. source
Snacks, drinks and extras on the trail
$10 per trek day
Hot showers come with the refugio bed or camp pitch. The camp shops sell snacks, beer, wine and coffee: at Vertice a pack of Oreos is CLP 2,000 and tortillas 4,000, and Las Torres shops charge more. Patagonia Hero tells clients to carry about USD 200 of spending money for its 7-day W, which also covers meals in town. No source gives a daily trail spend, so 10 a day is an estimate. source

How we count

Package price is the operator's regular published price per person for two people sharing a room, taken from the operator's own website on the date shown. Where the operator publishes group-size tiers we use the tier for two. Sale prices are noted but the regular price is used.

Left-out cost is what you still pay after booking. If an item is not in the package we add the reference figure above. If the operator's page does not say, we show a range: the lower figure leaves the item out, the upper figure adds it, and the list is sorted by the upper figure. Tips, insurance, visa and daily extras are added for everyone because no package covers them.

Currencies. Operators publish in USD, GBP or EUR; we convert to your chosen currency at daily mid-market rates. Prices are "from" prices and change with season, group size and exchange rates. Check the operator's page before you book.

Independence. No operator has paid to be listed and there are no affiliate links on this page. If that changes, it will say so here. Terms.
