My family booked a customized 8-night trip to Torres del Paine, Perito Moreno and Iguazu and we were happy with how the trip went. Throughout the planning process Lucia and Julieta answered all of our questions and gave us different options that suited our needs. We enjoyed the hotels which were all in excellent central locations (which was what we requested). The professional local operators were both punctual and knowledgeable.
Perhaps the highest compliment is that nothing went wrong during our trip and I doubt that is just by luck :-)
If you are looking for experts to help you plan and organize your vacation, this is a great agency!
