Tell us about Tres Rios Lodge
We loved John and Teresa. What a wonderful couple and lodge. It’s not fancy but it was perfect for us. John’s history and story are impressive. We experienced torrential rains, which impacted the fishing, but John did all he could to save the situation. In the end we caught some very nice salmon and made some great memories. I’d like to return.

Amazing hikes. Our guides, Francisco and Martin, were just super. The Laguna de Los Tres and Laguna Torres treks were lovely if not physically challenging for us. I loved that. Martin took his hand made guitar and played for us. Just wonderful stuff.
