The hikes and overall beauty of Patagonia was definitely the highlight. But the hotel and people we met were a close second. Everyone working at the hotel, from the staff, to the bar tender and waiters to the guides, were all so accommodating and gracious. We really could not have asked for a better trip.

Visiting the Pia Glacier, seeing Glacier Alley, excursion to Cape Horn, hikes and excursions. Cruise was well organized and personnel professional and friendly. We also very much enjoyed the 1 day adventurous Crossing of the Andes arranged by SWOOP. So many memorable moments!

Round trip on the Stella Australis was wonderful. Friendly crew, knowledgeable and enthusiastic Expedition Team, amazing trips. The mountains and glaciers are stunning and we were lucky to see them in unusually warm and sunny weather. The Australis got us to places we wouldn’t have otherwise seen. We saw dolphins, penguins, black-browed albatross, Black-faced ibis, Kelp geese’s and Giant Southern Petrel (my favourites). We also had a couple of land-based tours that were great (arranged privately).

The highlight was the Huemul circuit. It was an amazing trek. There was so much adventure and strenuous hiking but the scenery was spectacular. The highlights definitely included the ice-fields and also seeing the very different terrain as we circled around the Huemul mountain. There was a condor sighting on day 3 and the walk over the glacier on day 2 was just beyond words. I loved the fact that on day 3, we had to hike down really steep terrain and got to camp next to the glacier ice fields. Definitely the most magical moment was the birthday brownie that we got to share for my 40th birthday that was made so nicely by the Walk Patagonia staff.

My group had a fantastic time even though our weather was less than ideal and un-Patagonian (according to our guides). We had no wind at all, and soaking rain for almost two days. That said, the glacial lakes are amazing, the snow covered peaks are awesome, and the magnificence of the environment is remarkable.

My highlight was the trek on day one, to Grey Lake. I think this is because it was the first day, so everything was very 'Wow'. Landscapes amazing, wildlife good - saw some birds and little lizards. The people I met were great, very friendly, energetic and happy. I will tell my family and friends to go. I was surprised the weather was so good - only one morning with a bit of rain and snow. I think a 'magical moment' was kayaking on Grey Lake and getting up close to icebergs and the glacier.

Having been there, met others, spoken to lots of people on the ground, the itinerary that Swoop pulled together looks perfect. We were v lucky with the temperamental weather - which helped a lot - and the local partners were excellent. Best parts were the more arduous days and the rewards of the views gained.
