Brandon returned in February from a trip to Patagonia during which he took a Kayaking trip in Torres del Paine<\/a> National Park, planned and arranged by Swoop Patagonia and our partners in Chile. Here he tells us about his experiences on the trip and in booking with Swoop\u2026<\/p>\n

How were Swoop Patagonia?<\/b><\/p>\n

Swoop did a great job coordinating service with their kayaking partners in Torres del Paine<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How were Swoop\u2019s Kayaking Partners in Torres del Paine?<\/b><\/p>\n

Swoop’s partners provided excellent communication. They were far more informative and descriptive in their emails that other contacts we had in Chile.<\/p>\n

What did you think of the Kayaking Itinerary?<\/b><\/p>\n

The itinerary was great: we took a 2-day kayaking trip<\/a> along the Serrano River. We spent the perfect amount of time on the water, with a good combination of work and relaxation. The views were incredible and we really lucked out with the weather. We also appreciated how flexible the itinerary was for day 2.<\/p>\n

How was your kayaking guide?<\/b><\/p>\n

Dan was an excellent guide. \u00a0We had complete confidence in his skills and he was a pleasure to spend our trip with. \u00a0He does an excellent job of adapting the timeline and style of trip for the individual group.<\/p>\n

Is there anything you would change about your trip?<\/b><\/p>\n

The dinner was a little interesting. We probably would have preferred to not have tuna in the pasta \u2013 it would have been great with just the vegetables. \u00a0Perhaps they might consider adding something local like pre-packaged smoked salmon or trout to make the meal seem a little fancier.<\/p>\n
