There were many, but I will list 3: (1) Thanks to a recommendation by Swoop Patagonia, I signed up for a full day at Estancia La Peninsula. Our guide, Violeta was fantastic and very engaging. Very knowledgeable and skilled. Donald was busy as well as the captain of the boat, shepherd, sheep shearer, and lead guide for the horseback ride. The Patagonia sheep dogs (Barbucho) are so much fun to watch as they herd the sheep on Donald's command. The family and staff at Estancia La Peninsula, obviously love to what they do and are preserving the culture of estancia life in Patagonia. (2) Thanks to a recommendation by Swoop Patagonia, I signed up for the Southern Patagonia Glaciers Cruise (Kaweskar Route), on Skorpios III and everything about the cruise was outstanding!! The Captain and his staff were fantastic hosts. I especially appreciated the open bridge policy and I spent as much time outside on deck and on the Bridge as I could. The food was amazing, especially the Captain's dinner buffet. The fresh seafood was a delight. The views, of course were incredible. We transferred to a smaller vessel, the Capitán Constantino, which navigated through the ice for a closer look at the glacier and the crew served whiskey with ice plucked right out of the fjord! The two guides were great, and Luis gave several outstanding talks during the cruise. (3) My cruise out of Punta Arenas on Stella Australis, the Wildlife, Glaciers & Cape Horn Cruise, was outstanding. The weather cooperated and all excursions, including the landing at Cape Horn were successful. The Stella Australis staff was top-notch, and my waiter and the bar tenders were really nice and helpful. The expedition staff made the excursions fun and informative. The views, of course, were incredible.

I think the most memorable moment on the trail was finally getting to the view points in the French Valley and Mirador del Torre. They were breath taking. The most memorable moments off trail were enjoying time with our group and amazing guides at the end of each day.

Fantastic. I don't know if there was a 'highlight' but we loved the Singular-AMAZING place to stay, and waking up next to glaciers was really rad. We met some really interesting people there, only another American couple but I enjoy meeting new people so it was really interesting to connect with them, but overall I loved it.

No one particular highlight. Landscapes were pretty awesome. We only met our group (six in total, all Canadians) and our great guide and porters. Probably would tell anyone “don’t go”.... The trail and conditions were a surprise. Climbing to the John Gardner pass and finishing the “O” circuit were great moments.

Highlight was the circuit trek and enjoying the company of our guide, porters and fellow trekkers. Landscape and wildlife were fabulous. The biggest surprise was the terrific weather and lack of wind. We got very lucky with only 30 mins of rain in 9 days of walking.
