What people love about Argentina Tours in December
- Patagonia Adventure Tour (15 Nights)
I would have given a 10/10 on both Tours, Patagonia and the Andes Chile to Buenos Aires. The only weakest link is the accommodation in Mendoza. I have been to many places around the globe, but this one is the most disgusting and filthy I have been so far. Other than that, the tour is well organized, attention to details. Highest mark to Hi Travel Argentina and a big thank you to Ailen, Stephanie and staff. Hi Travel Argentina is on top of everything, logistic, caring and go extra miles to accommodate us. They also arranged to get us a refund for a big mistake made by one of the hostels. I will definitely recommend this amazing tour to my friends and family. Ted
- Andean Patagonian Adventure (12 Nights)
A great tour of the key points in Patagonia.
