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 stay at the Explora Patagonia Salto Chico Lodge and the adventures had in Patagonia were absolutely exceptional - The service provided by Swoop to confirm details of the trip with me were helpful planning the trip, in an area I was not familiar with. We left with confidence that all the details planned would come to fruition, and they did. We were seeking an incredible over the top experience with this trip and it exceeded our expectations!

Every day of the trip was unbelievable. The highlight was definitely the W trek. The landscapes were beautiful and we were able to see many rare sightings of native animals such as huemul and puma. We met many like-minded hikers who were passionate and excited about experiencing Patagonia. The guides and locals were all extremely friendly and welcoming. Every time someone asks me how my trip was, my first response is "YOU HAVE TO GO!"

Too many to pick one! The incredible interactions with wildlife will stay with us forever. Seeing Hummel and Pumas at close proximity were beyond anything we expected.

Having completed the W-Trek after 5 days with the most amazing guide and trek partner whom I both met at the briefing the night before. My Patagonia Challenge Trek for Kids Fighting Cancer was more of a challenge than I anticipated and completing it was emotional and quite fulfilling. My trek was covered by a news channel and I was able to raise almost $60,000 for the Jessica June Children's Cancer Foundation to help children fight cancer.

Great trip - a mixture of excellent day hikes, a longer multi-day hike and great food/ wine. Both Los Glaciares and Torres del Paine national parks were highlights with the highlight being the quieter back areas of the O trek which is a little closer to more wilderness trekking. I was a little surprised how busy parts of the Torres del Paine mainstream hiking areas were, particularly on the W circuit areas. I really enjoyed El Chlaten - it's a great size for a trekking type town and a fantastic base from which to explore the surrounding areas

Spending an hour walking among the penguins at Martillo Island was no doubt the highlight of the trip. It was magical watching the goofy graceful creatures, and the young ones, peeking from the burrows with curiosity or playing with their parents. We got to see Magellanic, and surprisingly many Gentoo. Other highlights: Perito Moreno Glacier, and hiking at the amazing mountains at El Chalten.

When the weather cleared up the second morning in Torres del Paine and I could enjoy all the views during the Scenic Tour, which I had to choose due to a twisted knee. But totally enjoyed that day!

The hike to Torres del Paine, I didn't know I had it in me to do it! Even though, I did not get to see the towers, it was a cloudy, rainy, snowy day; just about a peak of one of them, it was just a great accomplishment!

Lake Deseado was memorable in so many moments! We didn't have high expectations because it was a fill-in when Covid canceled our cruise from Ushuaia, but the lake was exquisite from our first glimpse. Then, the lodge itself (very isolated) was lovely in every detail. The view from our windows was of pristine waters with mountains in the distance. The short path to the dining facilities took us past beautiful birds, a brook and a beaver dam. Andres and the staff were welcoming, very helpful and genuine. We were a family of 14, joining one another from many parts of the United States and the only ones at the lodge. We were amazed at the menu, and managed to order everything from brie with local berries to guanaco, everything delicious. We over-80 grandparents got plenty of help so we could climb some trails and coast down the mountain on a bike. We also loved the library's collection of books about Patagonia. Our teens found challenging trails. Thank you to everyone including the gracious owners of Deseado Lodge!

We loved the entire adventure, but hiking on the last day to the Torres del Paine viewpoint brought tears of joy to my eyes. The 10 days of hiking was tough but totally worth it. Our group of 13 travelers from all over the world (9 from N. America, 2 from the UK, 2 from Holland) were tons of fun and we all got along well. Several of us hope to travel to one another's homes!

Our guides Lucille and Jose made the entire W trek absolutely unforgettable. They were patient with our entire team since we were all different levels. They both were so lovely to be around and kept us at a comfortable pace. We all had so many great laughs on the trail and made so many great memories.

Highlight was the scenery without a doubt: the Torres, Paine Grande, Los Cuernos, and everything in between. Whether it was snowy, rainy or a beautiful day full of sunshine, we loved every minute of the W trek. We saw many foxes, rabbits, condores and other birds, surprisingly few guanacos.
