Overall, how was your trip?
The highlight was the guide, Chuma from Chile Nativo. Landscapes were beautiful, but did not see as much wildlife as advertised. Really enjoyed the hikes and the people.

Would you visit again?
Yes

How was your W trek in Torres del Paine?
French Valley was the highlight. The weather made Torres difficult to see. I would highly recommend our guide Chuma (Claudio) from Chile Nativo - he was extremely knowledgeable about the park, wildlife, etc. No further recommendations.

Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Patagonia?
I would emphasize packing layers and snacks. Also rain gear and extra socks! Definitely have a strong cardio baseline before the trek to fully enjoy it.
Anything else? Tell us anything you’d like to share that we forgot to ask! It’s ok to leave this empty too :-)
I would just reiterate that Chuma from Chile Nativo was by far the best guide I have had on any tour I have ever had.
