    The tour was pretty great, and a good deal for what you get. The accommodation was a lovely seaside hotel, which was very accommodating and is well kept up. Unfortunately, there was a dinner show advertised, but not booked. Our other adventures were prompt and communication was good. Overall, very well done.

    It was a nice trip. There was a little problem with communication. Things weren’t explained in detail but it didn’t create any problems. We liked the tours that were offered and lived the free time. Some of the hotels were so so and some were magnificent. That’s not a big issue with us. Overall the trip was very very nice. Would definitely use Tour Radar again

    Private tour Arrangements by Tangol /Axel were v good . They make bookings through local tour operators . After some initial issues with availability of booking/ hotels , Axel Did a great job putting together the itinerary . Tours and multiple transfers from various airports was well coordinated and very punctual . Tangol Had an emergency WhatsApp number - after texting through this , they were accommodating and generally prompt with sorting out issues . adjusting pick up times etc . Buenos Aires- Tango show /El querandi in B Aires was fabulous . Guides were generally good for eg Gabriel with Tangol- Ushuaia - Tolkiyen in Ushuaia - cruise was nice but private transfer by them was not punctual and not accommodating . guide in Ushuaia from canal fun and nature did a good job El calafate - Huellas del sur sent guide for Perito Moreno glacier -Dario- polite but not enthusiastic - had to ask questions to get information - not spontaneous . For transfer , Huellas Del sur sent a small car for 3 people With luggage - tight fit . Iguazu - Sol iguazu turismo- fantastic / best guide - Miguel - went above and beyond , Gave us lots of info about falls, flora and fauna Rio - Rio Carioca tours sent a driver with poor English for the city tour- no guide - it was disappointing . The driver Luiz was polite , enthusiastic and did his best . Hotels - I upgraded some hotels . Amerian BA park in BA - good Las lengas in Ushuaia - extremely small rooms and dated - won’t go back Edenia - el calafate - big rooms with nice views of lake Iguazu jungle lodge was spacious with jungle views Rio- Arena Copacabana - upgrade room to beach view - excellent Please note quote does not include flights or park entrances . Overall we enjoyed the trip . Active itinerary . Will book with Tangol again .
