Tell us about Buenos Aires

Lovely city to visit, especially the older part like Palermo. Tigres Delta was also unique in its own way

Tell us about Tierra del Fuego

Yes, Ushuaia and its surrounding views and National Parks are beautiful and blessed naturally

Tell us about the Excursions

Guides were very helpful, humble and gentle. We enjoyed it. We will recommend to other travellers

Tell us about the Zodiac

Very unique and exciting way of moving from the cruise ship to the relevant islands/glaciers. The Team on Ventus Australis were very careful and well trained Enjoyed very trip we made - different, unique, memorably beautiful and breathtaking Will recommend

Tell us about the Wildlife

Amazing - especially Magdalena Penguins. Also, saw a puma in Torres del Paine, with the guanacos, hares, grey fox, Rhea ostriches - so exciting!

Something Else?

Taken together, it was a marvelous and memorable trip for the family.

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

Getting advice from SWOOP is very useful. Perhaps should add in the whale watching at Francisco Coloane Marine Park, near Punta Arenas. And be ready for the wide range of weather changes from Santiago/Buenos Aires to Tierre Del Fuego (we were fortunate to bring our winter puffers as it was that cold there, even in summer!)

Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?

More aware of the natural beauty like Torres del Paine with Paine Grande/The Towers/The Horns, wildlife, the clever planning and maintenance of National Parks, and glaciers and global warming impact

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

Excellent effort Perhaps a bit more clearer on clothing to bring, especially those of us from the Tropics where we are not used to the cold.

How prepared and excited for Patagonia did you feel?

Extremely excited!
