Let me preface this by saying we take pride in planning our own trips – we like the challenge and the adventure. But when my wife decided our next destination would be Argentina, we knew we would need some help. Enter Flor – the trip magician. Flor took all of our ideas and made them a reality – and gave us ideas we didn’t even know we wanted. She was endlessly patient as we made multiple tweaks to the itinerary, getting the balance just right.
We had a delightful time in Buenos Aires, but the magic really got underway when we arrived in Patagonia – first stop, Calafate. Flor’s plan to get us onto the Perito Moreno glacier was flawless – we even got to see the glacier calve a large iceberg up close!
Our private transfer to El Chalten was led by the most wonderful guide, Florencia. She brought the Argentinian culture alive, sharing Yerba mate and homemade treats with us. She is a wealth of knowledge and passion, and made us feel so welcome.
But by far the biggest highlight was visiting Estancia Bonanza – outside El Chalten. Flor suggested this stay for us, and it was pure heaven. Majestic views of Mt. Fitzroy, generous hospitality, delicious food, and comfortable accommodations nestled in a remote valley surrounded by the Andes.
Without a doubt, we will be using Trips again. They made our trip smooth and simple – all we had to do was enjoy!
