Tell us about the Trekking
Guide was great. Porters were great. I would only recommend this to other serious climbers and hikers. I would also recommend doing it as a private tour so that slower hikers don't hold others back and more experienced and stronger hikers don't get impatient with slower hikers. Some vetting of skill levels should be done.
Tell us about Torres del Paine
It lived up to my expectations. It isn't a "glamping" experience, so knowing how to rough it is required. The scenery was the highlight. I would describe this as very difficult and mentally challenging at times. I would only encourage people with lots of hiking experience to try it. It is not for a beginning hiker. I'd hate to see someone sign up for this without being prepared.
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Patagonia?
Learn Spanish. It helps in restaurants. Train hard and well. Have a good attitude and bring a good camera.
Would you consider another trip to Patagonia with Swoop?
