What people love about Buenos Aires to Santiago Tours
- Incredible Patagonia Tour
The trip was spectacular and well organized. The price for all that we did was very fair.
- South American Landscapes - Argentina & Chile
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and it was, in general, well coordinated with information provided each day confirming the next day's transfers and local tours. The local guides for each leg were very friendly and informative. Each of the major stops involved one free day. We utilised this effectively in Buenos Aires to spend a day in an area not visited (Palmero district) as part of the organised day tour. We didn't have much to do on the free days in El Calafate and Puerto Natales and felt the tour could have run a couple of days shorter by cutting out those two days. When making the bus trip from El Calafate (Argentina) to Puerto Natales (Chile), we were required to complete online forms in quick time at the bus stop, which was a bit stressful and would recommend having been advised of these requirements the previous evening. Also, a couple of the accommodations did not include our required bedding requirements. But overall it was a great tour and we saw some wonderful places.
Excellent holiday! Very well organised - the team: Hannah, Lilly, Barbara, Wendy Penny, Sam- put a lot of effort into organising an excellent itinerary. Brilliant communication with the local teams on the ground, couple of minor hiccups out of their control (eg a local domestic flight cancelled with nothing till the next day), which they helped me deal with very efficiently and I felt very looked after throughout. Would happily use them again! Pro tips for future travellers: ignore the guide books, no one speaks English, get a good few Spanish sentences ready! Laundry - do at El calafate hotel - half the price of everywhere else! In puerto natales there is quite alot of street noise on the sea view room - I’m a good sleeper so it didn’t bother me at all but light sleepers might want a different room! Thanks very much team I will always be grateful!
