This was an excellent trip, very well organised by Explore and the local company, with a superb leader in Andres and a great group of travellers. We were fortunate to have dry weather almost all the time. Highlights included the walk around Buenos Aires; the dramatic flight along the Beagle Channel to land in Ushuaia; Estancia Haberton and the penguins; overland travel with sightings of guanacos, condors, pampas and treescapes; the amazing long-distance views to the Torres del Paine massif and Mt Fitz Roy; the long challenging walks in the mountains; plus the walks both sides of the river at Iguazu Falls. Oh, and excellent food, beer and wine and charming people in Argentina and Chile.
