Susanne Widmer

Geographer – Product Development Officer & Naturalist Guide at Far South Expeditions

Born in Switzerland, Susanne is a geographer, naturalist guide, and specialist in product development and marketing at Far South Expeditions. Her passion for natural ecosystems began in the Swiss Alps, where she worked as a hiking guide—an experience that sparked a lifelong dedication to environmental interpretation.

She studied Geography and has a deep passion for exploring mountains and forests. She has worked as a whale-watching guide in the Strait of Magellan and has led expeditions throughout Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego, and Aysén.

Today, she combines her work as a naturalist guide in Patagonia and abroad—focusing on the relationships between landscape, climate, and wildlife—with her role developing content and managing updates for the company website, ensuring that our expeditions reflect the beauty and complexity of the destinations we explore. Her fluency in English, German, and French allows her to create enriching experiences for European visitors.
