Loved Peninsula Valdez. It is wild and full of such a variety of animals......birds, marine, and wildlife.

2 moments stand out: 1)Standing atop Cerro Falkner and seeing all the peaks in the area and 2) Fishing on Filo Hua Hum with Sancho. Having the lake all to ourselves and catching a lot of fish

Staying at EcoPosada was wonderful as they offered us excursions outside normal hours (ie.very early am boat ride) and allowed our group of 4 to split up to do different activities. 3 of us enjoyed an afternoon horseback ride while one went for more birding. There were an extremely large number of birds which delighted the birders in our group. Iguazu Falls was breathtaking and made Niagara Falls look small in comparison.

The highlight of the trip was day two. A moderate hike next to the most beautifully blue lake I have ever seen. I have been all over the world and Patagonia is by far the most beautiful. A group of nine strangers quickly became lifetime friends. Amazing humans plus amazing landscapes makes for an unforgettable trip. Camillo and Josefa (Pepa) were the best guides anyone could ask for. Extremely friendly, knowledgable and informative. I learned that a fifth season exists, it's a combination of all the other seasons at their very peaks, it's called Patagonia. And it's an experience of a lifetime.

Highlights: - Magellanie penguines at Isla Magdalena -2 day trip - Whales watching was amazing!! We love it a lot! We missed watching King pinguines! That will be nice if make this offer to other travellers! - We were impressed a lot by Eco Camp!! The nature of Torres del Paine like a miracle!! We’ ve seen 7 pumas during our stay! Argentinian part of Patagonia was not so impressine like Chilian part: less amimals, less impressive nature dfrom our point of view. We were lucky with the weather and skies were clear and there was a sunshine! Better to spend more time at Chilian side! But - Periti Moreto- is a must to see and visit!! On my return to Moscow I shared most of the photos in Instagram and Facebook, some of my friend were really imtersted. I passed your contact details to them. They are from Ukraine from Kiev. Local people are very frendly.

Excursions were interesting but honestly left quite a bit to be desired for the active traveler. However, the people we met and the experience onboard was unparalleled and totally made up for it. I was blown away at the thoughtfullness that went into the experience and the level of service and consideration towards the guest. I greatly appreciated the historic/informative talks and movies, and the onship library was a treat.

Trip was wonderful! The highlights were amazing landscapes and friendly, interesting people. The wind was the big surprise, despite multiple warnings, we still did not expect the powerful gusts (50 mph or more!) that we encountered. Magical moment was the sun setting at 11:00 at night, with a full moon rising.

The entire trip was a highlight! Totally worth the effort getting down there. Between all the flights and bus rides, all of the hours of traveling seemed to disappear the minute we entered the park. The crazy blue waters, the amazing snow covered peaks, the freshness of the air, the excitement of all the other people heading in. We were lucky with the weather, had beautiful partly sunny, partly cloudy days, with only one snowy/rainy day, and of course the winds...must experience the Patagonian winds!! Overall the trip was AMAZING!!!

I loved every aspect of the trip. The level of the trekking was exactly for my physical abilities, not too challenging, yet providing enough physical effort. The landscapes are gorgeous, the trek was very well organized.

Highlight was definitely Barraco Lodge. The team there was great and made us feel right at home while providing top of the line service. We also loved Peuma Hue, but it was hard to live up to what we'd already experienced. We used those last few days for some much needed relaxation, which was great. We did think that we would have liked less time between the estancias, but may have been limited due to the holiday and availability.

Magellan penguins on Magdalena Island were super fun. The Explora Hotel offered fabulous views, activities, and fellow guests). Interesting time-effective tour of Santiago...loved our guide. Skorpios cruise offered fabulous scenery and close encounters with glaciers. The hotel in Punta Arenas was interesting and fine BUT the room we stayed in the first night (but not when we returned from our cruise) had SUPER squeaky floors, so ask about that when booking rooms. Tell guests that Explora and Skorpios provide water bottles so that we don't bring them.

The highlights for me (being a mountain person) were the enormous and abundant glaciers and always the thought that I was seeing only a fraction of the ice that makes up the South Patagonian Ice Cap. Another highlight was the weather! We were blessed with clear sunny days that offered perfect views in all directions. Saw quite a lot of wildlife but no pumas ;( My group was fantastic. Lots of fun, supportive and caring. Guides too.

We felt very fortunate to have fantastic weather in Patagonia from start to finish, which meant that we were able to do everything we'd planned and more. We weren't sure what to expect of the wildlife, but were blown away by the diversity of animals we saw in Patagonia and even in Mendoza. Our guides were all very friendly and knowledgeable, and having them with us ensured that we truly appreciated what we were seeing, rather than rushing through the scenery. It's hard to say a specific highlight or magical moment, because each part of the trip had its own highlights. The glacier hike was surreal, seeing all those shades of blue. Cantering through Torres del Paine. Hiking up to stunning views of Mount Fitz Roy. Celebrating Christmas Eve at a family-run restaurant with the local community. Learning to really taste the different flavors in Argentinian wine. It may sound trite, but we have been on some fantastic trips and this was truly the trip of a lifetime.
