Karly and her husband returned in January 2015 from their honeymoon in Chile, during which they took a Trek in Torres del Paine<\/a> organised by Swoop Patagonia. Here they tell us about their experiences on the trip and in booking with Swoop and our partners\u2026<\/p>\n

How was your experience of booking your trip with Swoop Patagonia?<\/b><\/p>\n

We had a great time on our trip with Swoop- it was the highlight of our honeymoon in Chile for sure!<\/p>\n

What did you think of your W Trek Itinerary?<\/b><\/p>\n

We would definitely recommend the Camping W Trek<\/a> to family and friends who are in very good physical shape (we both found the hiking to be challenging, but manageable). We got very lucky with the weather and were astounded by the beauty of the park.<\/p>\n

How was your guide on the trip?<\/b><\/p>\n

Our guide, Mauricio was extremely skilled and knowledgeable, and a great photographer as well! The meals were good, and my husband and I enjoyed great vegetarian food the whole time.<\/p>\n

Do you have any recommendations for us that would have improved your experience?<\/b><\/p>\n

I think my only recommendation would be to have more ways to tailor the trip for less experienced hikers (i.e. more down time, factoring in more time for the hikes to take pictures). Some of this is really just because I felt I could have spent hours at the lookouts, which isn’t totally possible, but I wonder if it would be possible to get a bit more time to take it all in, as the sights were truly overwhelming and unreal. Overall however, everything was great.<\/p>\n

Did you manage to visit anywhere else on your trip?<\/b><\/p>\n

We also went to Santiago<\/a>, Vina del mar and Valparaiso<\/a>, and were able to go to Isla Magdalena to see the Penguins when we were back in Punta Arenas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Thank you for helping us to plan and arrange this fantastic experience!<\/p>\n
