Thank you for creating such a wonderful itinerary for us. All our flights, transfers, and tours were well-spaced and seamlessly organized, which was incredibly helpful given the language barrier! Additionally, the hotels you selected were all located in beautiful and convenient areas—perfect for first-time travellers to South America like us. We enjoyed every single minute of our holiday!
I don't know how you predicted it, but you picked the best weather for every part of our trip! The temperature was around in the mid-20s while we were in Peru and around 20 degrees while we were in Bariloche and El Calafate. Patagonia Chile was the same. We had almost blue skies every day, including our five days of hiking the W-track in Patagonia. We heard people who travelled before and after us experienced very unpleasant weather, so bad that just after we left Paine Grande Refugio and reached Pudeto Sector we witnessed one family, who had their plan all stuffed up because the catamaran could not operate to take them to Paine Grande on their first day of W-track due to severe gust wind in the area!
We thought trekking up to Humantay Lagoon in a low-oxygen environment was tough, but then we faced the real challenge of hiking up to Torres Base on our second day of the W-track! My knees and shoulders were killing me, and I honestly thought I wouldn't be able to continue. However, with some extra Nurofen and a lot of determination, we pushed through and completed the W-track as planned! I must admit, though, we were very glad when it was over. We’re also thankful we took your advice to relax for two nights in Puerto Natales before heading home—that was something we really needed!
