Tell us about EcoCamp
EcoCamp was an incedible place to stay and hang out at. The food was so good and their sustainability is very impressive being so remote. Our guides were amazing and very knowledgeable about the Patagonia terrain, wildlife, and fauna.
Tell us about Torres del Paine
Grey Glacier and the Torres were incredible. I would describe it as a challenging hike but worth every long day. Every day the hikes produced incredible views you cannot get anywhere else in the world.
Tell us about the Trekking
Our guides were the best. They were approachable, funny, spoke great english and were fun to be around at all times. I would recommend people for their first time doing the O-Circuit to use guides.
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Patagonia?
Advice would be to pack bug spray, at a couple of the early remote campsites it is necessary. Would also recommend bringing your own dry bag to put in your day pack as well as rain pants as the weather is very unpredictable in Patagonia.
Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?
Yes, being able to disconnect allowed me to do a lot of self-reflection and take some time to relax. When you are so far remote and have no external devices or cares in the world it allows you to be fully present in moments.
How prepared and excited for Patagonia did you feel?
Mostly prepare and very excited.
