I very frequently find my mind wandering back to Patagonia and my beautiful, amazing experience there. Quite simply, the trek blew my mind and exceeded any expectations I had going in; it was basically a life-changing adventure for me. It was more challenging than I expected, but in the best of ways...I pushed myself further than I could've imagined in one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. It helped that I had a wonderful, supportive group of people with me. Even more importantly, our guide; Nico; was simply amazing. His organization and detailed nightly briefings meant we always knew what to expect, and he was very supportive on the trail. He was constantly teaching us and telling us stories as we went, which made it all the more interesting. All equipment provided for us by the company was good, and the porters were wonderful...I can't express how great it was to have our tents set up and waiting for us at camp each night! I was not envious of the independent hikers having to set up their own tents, and cook their own food that they'd carried along on their own backs ;) From the minute I first contacted your tour company about this trip, I knew you were who I wanted to entrust with organizing my trip. You were the only company out of many not only willing to guarantee a trip for a solo traveler at a reasonable price, but also willing to customize the trip around my exact travel dates. From then on, every question/concern I had was quickly answered; I was never left waiting or wondering. I am very happy with my choice, and will cherish these memories forever. Thank you THANK YOU for a fantastic adventure!!
Patagonia Rocks (pun intended)! Views of Torres Del Paine and Mount Fitroy are breathtaking. We were very lucky with weather throughout and the trekking was very enjoyable with scenic views at every turn. My inspiration for going was pictures of TDP and it didn't disappoint. However, Mount Fitzroy is just as impressive - if not more so. Overall I didn't think the walking was overly demanding (weather helped of course) and am surprised it was a 5 rating. I believe next year, the real tough day is being split into 2 days
Cycle the Lake District of Chile and Argentina Having personally completed over 8 cycling trips with this tour company, this one to the Patagonia region of Chile and Argentina rates as one of the best - a fabulous route through stunning scenery of snow capped mountains, volcanoes with lava fields and vast lakes. Highly recommended
