Argentina Tours and Trips for Seniors

This tour was extensive to cover the Patagonia area. One main point is to decrease the stay in Buenos Aires and to add more in Patagonia area specifically at the Rio Serano area where I felt we could have experienced more of Patagonia that the short stay we had. The Ventus cruise was excellent to experience the glaciers in this region and we were blessed to land on Cape Horn. Overall, I cannot complain and enjoyed every part of the itinerary as well as my fellow travelers in this small tour group.

The whole toour was magnificent and especially the boat ride for 5 days and 4 nights. All of the hotels were great with great food and the bus was also very comfortable and our tour mates were fun and interesting.

I had an amazing three-week trip that included: Buenos Aires, Ushuaia, El Chaltén, El Calafate, Puerto Natales, Puerto Varas, Bariloche, and Iguazú Falls. This enormous region requires expert trip design or a long time of learning and self-planning. The landscapes are outstanding—especially during early autumn, when the forests begin changing colors from green to red. I wanted a trip that was both organized and allowed for personal adjustments. Lucila was the trip expert for this tour. After defining my interests, she designed a preliminary plan that was refined over the course of a few weeks. The plan included domestic flights, hotels, local guides, and transfer drivers. Before starting the trip, I received a comprehensive document with a detailed description of each day, a contact list of all local suppliers, and even walking maps from some hotels to meeting points. All drivers arrived as scheduled. All guides were knowledgeable and helpful. During the trip, I also had the option to contact the agency if anything was not going smoothly. It was a delight to work with Lucila. Her patience, knowledge, and professionalism are outstanding. I would highly recommend this company to anyone interested in a Patagonia adventure.

Our Tour Manager, Laura Gallardo was absolutely one of the top two tour managers that Collette has in the company. I’ve taken closed to twenty tours with Collette and am speaking with extensive experience. She ensured that we completed everything on our agenda along with free time where she took us to places that weren’t on our itinerary. We can see that she loves and enjoys what she does. She’s extremely knowledgeable and answers all our questions. This was a small group (24pax) expedition and was ideal. Patagonia was one of Collette’s best tours!

Tour hostess was the best I’ve ever had, and I’ve travelled a lot. I am recommending to all that I know who travel, for something different. Opened my eyes to climate change.

It was amazing. Lucila was extremely helpful. We went back and forth on the itinerary, they ensured that i was happy, ensured that everything was good to go. Checked in on me the night before my trip started. Even on the trip when i had a booking question. Lucila was able to answer me in just a few hours. They even set up an app for you to follow the route and suggested activities. And I am a very picky person about trip planning - but I would say I'm extremely happy with my experience.
