Something Else?
Estancia La Peninsula on the the fjord was incredible. Guide Tomas was unforgettably fabulous, riding in the mountains, bird watching, learning the history, Tomas cooked breakfast and dinner all three days in our house that was absolutely delicious. Mary was terrific in Aysen trouble shooting with all local operators and spent a number of meals with us telling us of history and culture. First B&B in Aysen was terrible. Bordebaker Lodge was the best hotel and the best food we had on the trip. Fabulous!
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Patagonia?
Large microfiber towel for Refugios Bring laundry soap and hand wash every evening to stay current with clean clothes.
Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?
Only place in the world you can fill water bottles directly from lakes, rivers, streams. Chile is a stable middle class, hard-working, family-oriented country where everything works and the people are wonderful - Croatian and Scottish. Argentina is European - German and Italian - fabulous food, less functional country - electricity goes out, ATMs dont work, inflation means it is expensive.
Do you have any recommendations for Swoop, or feedback about the team?
Team was great. Itinerary was great. Pricing was reasonable. Ad hoc needs for help were met quickly and competently.
