What's Included
Customer Reviews
Fantastic trip - unmissable for anyone who loves wild places and walking
This was a simply perfect trip from start to finish, with a group of experienced walkers and travellers, led by a charismatic guide, Xavier, through wild, remote places which appear frequently as the backdrop or subject of TV nature programmes. The vastness, emptiness and isolation of Patagonia has to be experienced to be understood - the feeling of standing on the side of a mountain range looking across hundreds of miles of wilderness and knowing there is no human there is incredible. We were fortunate to have as our Chilean guides on the W Trek, Polo, Anaïs and Cristian who did a lot more than "guide", injecting a sense of fun even on some of the more tedious parts of the walks.
Fabulous trip
A fabulous trip with a brillant guide and group.
Classic Patagonia treks
Fabulous holiday with a good balance of trekking and rest days. Not too many travel days for a big country either.
Brilliant and challenging
Wonderful trip. Amazing trekking. Superb guide (Tomas). Friendly group. Expensive but worth it.
Waugh
Patagonia is simply amazing, beautiful, and a sight not to be missed. Overall, our trek was brilliant, while certainly tough at times too. The tour was arranged really well and definitely lived up to my expectations.
