Trekking-intense journey for landscape lovers! Ushuaia is just the perfect spot to finish the trip, relaxing and beautiful at once. Buenos Aires however doesn't fit into the experience because there was no program!

This journey felt significantly longer than its actual duration—in the best possible way! I thoroughly enjoyed every moment, appreciating both the wonderful group and the breathtaking landscapes of Patagonia. What I valued most was the ability to fully embrace the experience without the need for planning or decision-making. Every detail was so well taken care of that I could completely relax and immerse myself in the beauty of Patagonia without any concerns.

The overall experience was outstanding. Patagonia is a wonderful destination, one of the last wildernesses in the world and a place to be treasured. We really enjoyed the hikes and would have been happy to do more. Tash the CEO and her colleagues were really friendly, helpful and passionate about Patagonia. Tash had excellent knowledgable about nature, flora, fauna and the areas we visited. The glaciers were breathtaking and the accommodation was excellent, especially Estancia Cristina, the remoteness was just what we needed, to be away from the frenetic ways of modern life for a while. The tour was well organised and communication was excellent. Would definitely recommend G Adventures for this type of holiday
