You have to be careful, the after-sales service is quite bad and they are not empathetic with customers, even for special reasons.

The weather was perfect so could enjoy the trip very much.
Two dots for even a better tour.
- Should re-think about the lunch time, since a lot of souvenir shops were closed from 13:00-16:00 and could not do shopping at El Chalten.
- Picking up at so many hotels were a bit frustrating, took about an hour to pick up all the tour guests. Should narrow down the picking up area.

An okay excursion to El Chalten but only a couple of short walks rather than actual treks. Guide (Camilla) was helpful and informative. Probably too much time spent in El Chalten at the end of the excursion. Decent price and value for the trip but probably better options if you want to do longer treks.

We booked with this company to take the excursions to the Perito Moreno and Chaltén glacier, they were punctual when picking us up, the guides were very attentive and explained well.
The transportation was clean and in very good condition, the driver was very attentive and responsible when driving.

It was a great hiking trip!
The first hiking was not too hard, beautiful scenery from the top. Also second hiking to the beautiful waterfall was very flat and easy.
Our tour guide Alexia was so nice and made our trip really special!

I was a little hesitant at first booking this trip because of the negative reviews about the length of time in vehicle. The ride was not bad at all. When you're exploring a remote area, you have to take into account travel time. The hike up to see the condors soaring was a challenge, and I was the last one 🕐 n our group up. Just wish I had more time to take lots of pictures and soak up the grandness of it all. Our guide was ready to go back down after we just got there. The van we had was filled to capacity and not every seat had equal comfort ie. The seats over the wheel . After waterfall trek and viewing, we were let go in town for lunch, then back home. A full day, but worth it.

One of the best rides I´ve done in life! The most beautiful landscapes from the bus window! I definetely recommend this trip. From the bus driver to the guides, the people in Él Chaltém, the place... everything is a dream!

I want to start off by saying the tour guide was really sweet and did a lot to make this trip fun. However, this just seemed like a huge waste of money because we did 2 very small hikes that you could do on your own. If you have even 5 minutes, just find a bus to El Chaltén and look up the 2 most famous hikes and you’ll save yourself a lot of time. This came with lunch which allowed you to choose between 3 options which were all mediocre. We had 2.5 hours to eat and walk around town but all the stores were closed for siestas so there was literally nothing to do. The bus ride was crammed and took so long, with every other car on the road passing us (even busses twice the size)

Beautiful mountain, fresh air, some trekking.
And to see many many condors in their own environment.
