What was your most memorable moment?
Standing with our small group at Laguna Amarga Ranch as a pregnant puma walked very close to us! Being able to observe pumas as they played, chewed on guanacho bones, "eeked" to call their cubs and teach them to hunt.

Tell us about the Excursions
Mateas in Chile was excellent. Junior, our tracker, was unbelievable. Virginia and Emmi with Walk Patagonia fabulous in El Chalten The full day excursion to Lago del Desierto was an hour boat ride rather than kayaking (which was fine), a lovely picnic on the beach and a great hike
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Patagonia?
Be prepared for HIGH WINDS and stay at Hotel Los Cerros in El Chalten
Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?
I have been aware of glaciers receding worldwide since my first sailing trip in Norway during the summer of 1984. El Chalten is very young, established in 1985. Neither of the two bookstores had any history in English about the town. Would be very interested if recommendations can be made.
Do you have any recommendations for Swoop, or feedback about the team?
Every day was the best day!! Sydney chose excellent guided hikes for us, our guides were well versed in flora/fauna/wildlife and Isidora got me to Patagonia when my original flight was cancelled.... helping me book a 3 hr. public bus in Spanish to get to Puerto Natales
