The Best 17-day Trips in South America with 10 Reviews
This was a fantastic trip - we were extremely lucky with the weather which was perfect for the entire trip and most unusual for the region. There are a lot of 'extras' on this trip but all are very worthwhile - I particularly enjoyed the trip to see the Penguins and the walk to the base of the Torres del Paine. We had an exceptional guide whose attention to detail and care for all our needs, ensured we had the very best experience we could. One negative - the accommodation in Buenos Aires was poor compared to the rest.
