great holiday with fantastic scenery I did this trip October 2022. It was great fun, with amazing views and interesting cycling. There were 2 long tarmac downhills which were exhilerating. I took the bus rather than do the long steep dirt road section over the border crosing - the other 7 in our group all managed that uphill, but the bus followed the same route. Our guides were great; father and two sons team, as well as the yellow school bus. I was very glad I took walking boots for the two free days, (volcano climb and ski resort climb near Bariloche) although more sure footed people could have done it in trainers. Food was very good; hotels a mix of quirky and luxurious. Do not miss the chocolate factory in Bariloche. We had a very sociable group, lubricated with local wines and beers. Bring your best camera and cycling shorts.
Patagonia has been on my travel "to do" list for quite some time now. I was particularly looking forward to the amazing scenery on offer - Fitzroy, Torres del Paine, Moreno Glacier, plus sampling some of the legendary steaks and wines that Argentina is famous for.
Would highly recommend and do again. This was an excellent day tour from a local's perspective. Our guide, Emanuel, was on time and on point throughout the entire journey, very charasmatic and amiable. The wine tour itself was splendid, a gradual and enjoyable taster into a nearby region: Casablanca Valley. Each winery had incredible wines with notes of history and local culture sprinkles throughout. The first two wineries were more authentic and local, and much more personable, with incredible wines. The last two were a bit too commercial for our liking but as this was the beginning of spring the crowds were few and we could savor and linger at every moment. Overall, a wonderful day trip to an intriguing and tasty part of Chile. Would highly recommend and do again.
