    Very good tour. Covers a lot of territory with little down time makes it somewhat exhausting at times. We had a fantastic guide and she (Sol) arranged some fantastic meals in great restaurants. The lake crossing from Bariloche to Puerto Varas is spectacular.

    Was overall very well planned, executed and enjoyable. We visited fantastic places, had good weather and wonderful detailed suggestions on what to do in Our free time, thanks to Natali. A couple of hotels were too far out of town.

    Itinerary was good. Optional choices were not wide enough. Accommodation was good in general, but it was terrible in El Calafate. Guild was excellent. The meal in a local host was overpriced and no good for me

    Think twice before you book this tour, it should be called "rush through Patagonia to tick off the highlights". Look at the long distances travelled by plane. If the tiniest detail goes wrong, it is difficult to fix it. Yes, landsapes are outstanding, but the risk of severe weather is a well. Storm during passage between Bariloche and Puerto Varas. Some substandard Hotels there. Small and overfilled minibuses for long transfers. Strike of airline (Aerolinas Argentinas) lead to a real mess without satisfactory reaction of G heaquarters. (Cancellation of the whole Ushuaia section, long 1000 km extra detour in minibus due to strike). G20 summit on top in Buenos Aires lead to a further complication. The National Geographic tours are not worth the extra money, the descriptions are better than reality - go to a normal g-tour and save your money. Even better: travel within your home continent and save some carbon dioxide.

    I really enjoyed my trip overall. The excursions were amazing, our guide was fantastic, and for the most part, the logistics were well planned and executed. I think the accommodations could be improved a bit as well as some of the meal options but otherwise, I had a wonderful time.
