What was your most memorable moment?

My group all agreed that we had 2 "best days" on this trip 1. The hike from Central Camping to Cuernos Refugio. We didn't expect anything from this day, but the hike was absolutely stunning! The green-blue hue of the lake, the condors overhead, and the easy trail all made for a great day outdoors. The icing on the cake was the Christmas Eve festivities at the refugio. The staff went above an beyond to create a warm, celebratory atmosphere and a holiday to remember. 2. Our overnight kayaking trip definitely under promised and over delivered. We had excellent weather and watched the clouds lift and reveal the volcano views and counted dolphins, sealions, and birds on our 15km paddle. We expected to camp on a farm, but we stayed in a private refugio overlooking the fjord. After sensing that we weren't up for the 2 hour hike our guide, Felipe, offered a 15 minute hike to a river to drink a cold beer which was just the thing - and then he set up a delicious charcuterie board for us. The night ended with a homecooked meal, cards, and a hot shower.

Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Patagonia?

Torres Del Paine is beautiful, and certainly a must-do. But do yourself a favor and get off the beaten path on your trip, too. Adding on the Land of the Volcanoes trek and overnight kayaking in the Lakes Region really gave us a better feel for the rest of Patagonia, especially the people and culture.
