Patagonia Puma Photography Tour II with Daniel J. Cox

Join Daniel J. Cox on a journey to the Torres del Paine region in southern Chile. Our renowned local guide and tracker know the area and cats and will guide us on a private estancia. Special permits are required; availability is limited. Our 2025 puma tours were exceptional. Nobody could have imagined these cats could be so accessible and photographable.

Autumn is the perfect season to visit Patagonia, not only for the beautiful fall colors, snow-capped mountains, and less wind, but also for photographing pumas. Since the days are shorter, we will track the cats after breakfast throughout the day and return to our lodge at a comfortable hour for dinner. The cooler temps keep the cats more active throughout the day compared to long days of sleeping cats in the hot days of summer. Often, the cubs are at a playful age during this time of year, which is always a special sight. The pumas of Patagonia are comfortable with photographers nearby. They pay no attention to you, similar to cats in Africa. And like all our trips, we’ll stay in comfortable lodging and sample some local delicious cuisine. Come enjoy these spectacular cats in Patagonia!
