Four-week trip to Patagonia

After a first trip to the north of Argentina organized by us, we dreamed of discovering Patagonia. We entrusted the realization of this dream to Boris and we did well.

He was able to design the trip as we wanted: exploration of the Valdes Peninsula, Ushuaia and Tierra del Fuego, El Calafate and the Glacier Park, El Chalten, Bariloche and a brief stopover in Buenos Aires, which we already knew.

He was able to bring a real plus to what we had imagined, with stops off the beaten track, which allowed us to live extraordinary experiences, alongside attentive Argentinians, happy to make us discover their region and their way of life.

It was a very dense, rich and varied journey:

• breathtaking landscapes: XXL glaciers, enchanting Andean peaks, pampas as far as the eye can see, jagged coastal landscapes, often deserted, with the impression of being alone in the world.
• a very rich fauna that made us photographers happy: whales, sea lions and elephant seals, penguins (especially Magellanic penguins but also Gentoo penguins and king penguins), guanacos, gray and red foxes, maras, emus, hares, multiple birds and even armadillos and skunks.
• exciting excursions by boat, zodiac, canoe, bus, jeep, horse, or independently in a rental car.
• day hikes, discovering glaciers and mountain landscapes that are a little more secret, more difficult to reach, but our efforts were always rewarded by a grandiose spectacle.
• varied gastronomy always delicious, accompanied by Malbec or a local beer, and followed by a dessert often (if not always) garnished with dulche de leche.
• changing weather: wind (always), sun (often), rain (rarely), snow (sometimes), all possible in the same day.

The trip was perfectly organized, Boris and Mariana were able to deal efficiently with the few unforeseen events, thank you to them. It was a wonderful trip, and we are ready to repeat the experience with Boris and his team.

Stay from October 27, 2023 to November 28, 2023
