What was your most memorable moment?

Every photo was spectacular. I didn’t have to try very hard to capture nature’s beauty. I loved one video that I took of a lone horse galloping against a multi colored sky. The lakes/ water were breath taking

Tell us about Hotel Las Torres

The room was comfortable, and the shower always had hot water. The excursions were fine, although one day the guide forgot to load my hiking poles, and I had to suffer on the mountain. Otherwise, the excursions were great.

Tell us about Torres del Paine

The national park was exceptional. I have absolutely no complaints to make. I’ve been sharing my photos with everyone. It’s a magical place.

Tell us about the Trekking

As I mentioned, only once, did the guide not pack my hiking poles. Otherwise, I felt that the guides really looked out for me. I felt as though they were taking care of me.

Tell us about the Excursions

I enjoyed the hikes. I think that overall, Swoop Patagonia did a good job at describing the level of difficulty of the hikes. I’m very grateful to the organization of Swoop with regard to my preparedness.

Tell us about the Horseriding

I did not ride the horses. I did take lots of pictures of them as they ran past my bedroom window

Something Else?

I did have a massage. I think it would be cool if the hotel offered a yoga or stretch session in the evening after the excursions. Sometimes the muscles can get really tight. I personally stretched every morning before going out, however it would be nice to have that offered as well.

Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Patagonia?

I think you should not force people into double occupancy. There may be more single people who would like to partake in this adventure as well without having to share a room.

Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?

Are usually paint portraits, however, I’ve been inspired to do landscapes. I probably will do a painting of the Gancho on the horse.

Do you have any recommendations for Swoop, or feedback about the team?

Swoop did a good job of preparing everything. I felt very well informed and everything that Rachel provided with regard to my level of preparedness was 100% accurate. I have no regrets. It was spectacular, and I’m very happy.

How prepared and excited for Patagonia did you feel?

Quite honestly, I always try to minimize my expectations before I take a trip. The hotel, the transfers, the guides , and the staff were excellent.

Yes
