Hi Patricia, It was a wonderful trip. Henry put together a great itinerary, and after he left, Pia pulled it all together. I liked a lot of the hotels. Many of the hotels were beautiful, but the distance from the city was very big. I like to eat dinner in the city and walk around after dinner, and I could not do that when the hotels were so far. The hotel in Mendoza was lovely.. The hotel in Bariloche and the hotel in El Calafate wre within easy walking distance to town, and I like that. I love the estancia, Estancia La Candelaria del Monte. It was an exceptional experience. The staff and the food were wonderful. I would highly recommend this. We had exceptional guides, particularly Frederico in Bariloche and Vincent in Mendoza. They were absolutely the BEST and made the experience. My favorite excursions were Bariloche when Frederico took us on a hike to "Enchanted Valley" and then for a wonderful lunch at an estancia. Upscale Glacier. That was a wonderful experience. Seeing the icebergs floating in the water is magical. I would recommend this company to my friends. I think you should ask whether people prefer hotels outside town with beautiful grounds or prefer to stay in town. Other than the distance of some of the hotels, I have nothing negative to say. It was a fantastic trip!
Recommended but lots of driving All in all, a good way to get orientated with a highlights reel of southern Patagonia's best bits. Which are surely right up there with the world's most spectacular scenery. Be aware, however, that in an area as huge as Patagonia, there are some seriously long drives required to get between the various scenic hotspots and not a great deal of free time between. Although these journeys never seemed to drag too badly due to the epic scenery passing by outside the bus windows and were offset by the days hiking in various National Parks. All in all, a really good trip.
My trip to Perito Moreno Glacier with the team was an extraordinary adventure that surpassed all my expectations. Their dedication to providing exceptional services and their passion for sharing the beauty of Patagonia and its glaciers made this journey a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
