What to do in Chile? - Punctuality and safety. Experienced driver, the guide KƔssia is sensational, general knowledge about the place during the ride, good tips from Santiago on the way and always in a good mood. The view of the Lacuna del Inca is amazing. I fed the lamas in Portillo. I loved the walk.

Beautiful Portillo - The landscapes are extremely beautiful and the attention of the guide Kassia at all times, from the rental of clothes to the picnic, essential. I would make other trips with her for sure.

A frustrating experience - I made the tour to PORTILLO with the agency and had a very unpleasant experience with the guide who seemed to be in a hurry at all times. The guide Alex was rude, rude and careless at various times, which made the ride a little frustrating. The tour that lasted to finish at 17hrs, ended at 12hrs and he left us at the residence at 14:30hrs. Anyway, we were extremely disappointed.

Frustante. - Negative, not by the company up to pq I made other tours that were tops which I will evaluate, but by the guide that was disqualifying the sights. Started by breakfast and clothes rental q are in the local msm (q is a farm, it is sold married with the guide, R$ 450,00 where you can rent in the city for R$ 80.00 my contact (88) 9 8844-1796) , the guide only gave 30 minutes for both, he touched the terror saying that there was too cold, I do not rent my wife yes. The guide was very rushed, ordering the driver to make prohibited crossing and did not give another hit on another vehicle, causing panic inside the Van, and did not stop followed forward without the rearview. We arrived in Portillo very early the sun had not reached the pond. He gave an hour, and said q there is not much q to do just hit photo in the Lagoa and back. The line from the bathroom and the snack was already gone 50 minutes and to hit the photo in the lagoon another 15 minutes, this is not able to explore the place, we were a few minutes late, because the main point is the photo in the lagoon, our luck that the sun had already arrived there and the photos will be perfect, Qm hit photos before they became dark without the glow of the lagoon. Yes, there dps from 9:00 the sun comes shining to the point of you to be just in a shirt. I'm going to jump for a picnic, I didn't even have time to drink the wine, I heard that voice, Bora, Bora....resuming the tour was to arrive around 5am and at 14:50 we were already at SkyCostanera. I recommend renting a car to arrive there around 10:00, you will catch less traffic, few tourists, they will save on clothes pq the sun is already good and enjoy various points and breathtaking landscapes. This was a small summary.
