A 10/10 experience - The place is stunning, a beautiful landscape in the middle of the mountains, pure air and total disconnection. The coordination for hotel pickup was very good and our guide, Sebastian, communicated with us very kindly to inform us every detail from the day before. Everything flowed in the best way. During the tour, Sebastian integrated the group very well and his explanations about what we were seeing were excellent. You could tell he has a lot of experience and loves what he does. He and Ramon, the mobility driver were very professional and friendly throughout. What the company offers in the package, is just what we visit. Even the picnic at the end of the ride with the whole group was amazing with toasts with Chilean wine and delicious piqueos. Ideal for couples, friends or family. We take the best memories of the tour... And from Chile!!!

Great trip, amazing guide! - I went solo but that was not inconvenient to enjoy the experience. Our guide Alejandra (Ale) gave passion to the excursion showing great knowledge to explain everything in maximum detail in an entertaining way and appreciate nature in all its glory. Conversation among all hikers has been greatly promoted, which further improved the experience. 10/10, fully recommended.

Incredible Experience in Chile - I went with my mother and it was an amazing experience from the first contact. We were picked up at the reception of our hotel, and everything was impeccable: the instructions, the guide, the sympathy, the welcoming, the breakfast, the picnic, the tours and the stops for photos, all absolutely exceptional. I definitely indicate this tour, because you will not be the same after living this incredible experience, especially with the guide Ale, who is a true angel on Earth and was born for it.
