Tour Portillo - Our guide was Mr. Alex Ruedlinger. Mr. Alex was a sensational guide. He told stories and gave explanations from the beginning to the end of the journey. Plus, he could make jokes at the right time. It was a sensational experience.

Have a great day! - The scenery was beautiful, the hotel pickup super efficient. The Gabriel guide was bilingual in Portuguese and Spanish and made sure everyone understood. There was enough free time to take pictures. Yeah, good!

2 Fast 2 Furious - Chilean edition - Went on the Incan Lagoon tour as our booked Cajon del Maipo tour was cancelled due to unfortunate forest fires there. Our host was a very nice man but this is just a drive out to an old fashioned skiing lodge with nothing to do, no chance to hike anywhere or do anything other than take a picture of the lagoon - which is beautiful, but nothing more than a photo op. Other stops on the tour include a truck stop at the Argentine border and a view of a big road. The picnic offered is meager; doritos & oreos etc served in a roadside cafe. Driver drove like a maniac the entire way. Not much of a tour unless you love motorways and Doritos.

Lack of professionalism - Felt Unsafe - A couple of weeks ago I booked a tour to Laguna del Inca alone and everything during the tour went ok until I arrived back to my hotel and I had a message in my phone number from someone related to the company asking for my telegram and saying that he was "an admirer". I understand the logistical purposes of leveraging our phone numbers when organizing the tour but it is very unprofessional to take advantage of it and write to girls/women. I found it really creepy and made me felt unsafe. Important to point out that I also wrote to the company directly to escalate this and they didn't do anything rather than answering to me that "they'll verify it". If you are travelling alone and, specially if you are women, think twice before booking with them!! :)
