Patagonia family experience - 8 days / 7 nights

Everything went well, I didn't have any problems at all!

Everything was great—the hotels were excellent, and the tours too. Everything!

My daughter Júlia had a lot of fun, we met a lot of people, so it was a really pleasant experience. I loved it!

I just wanted to say thank you!

The entire travel experience was excellent – the destinations, the tours, the hotels, and the transfers.

Everything went very smoothly, and we’ve created precious memories! A perfect 10!

Many thanks to Guilherme and the Patagonia Experience Travel team.

We’ll definitely travel with them again!

We’ve just arrived at the hotel after the Beagle Channel tour, which was wonderful—just like all the others.
Absolutely nothing to complain about, everything under control, everything went smoothly.

A truly amazing trip, unlike anything we’ve ever done. I’m just grateful. It was truly an unforgettable journey.
The guides also did an excellent job on all the tours we took—everything was great. Thank you so much!

We’re on the plane heading back from this beautiful trip.
Everything was wonderful!

Great guides, beautiful places, good hotels, etc.

Warm regards and many thanks.

Traveling to Patagonia was the fulfillment of a dream for our family.

Having you with us was essential: in the careful selection of service providers, who think of every detail to make the tours even more special, in the planning of the itinerary and hotels, in the guidance, and in the always available support.

All the knowledge and constant support you provided kept us feeling secure at all times, making the trip an even more special experience.

Jefferson, we returned the week of our trip to Patagonia.
We want to greet you and thank you for taking such good care of our program.
Everything was perfect.
We highly recommend Patagonia Experience.

Miguel Elian and family

Good morning, Jefferson.
There are so many photos that it's hard to choose.
Here are two—you can decide which one to use.
Once again, thank you very much for the program, itinerary, and attention.
I made the right choice when I decided to plan the trip with you. Best regards.

Sensational!!

First of all, I would like to thank Jefferson and his team for their kindness and attention — thank you very much.

Let’s talk about trust. My trip was organized, customized, and paid in full in October 2021 for departure in January 2022. Due to personal issues, we couldn’t travel in January, and the team at Patagonia Experience Travel took care of all the rescheduling. They handled everything, and we ended up traveling in November 2022, more than a year after the payment.

Everything was perfect — well-organized tours, the best local providers, each one a specialist in their area, restaurant recommendations — it really felt like planning a trip with a friend who had already been there. Amazing experience.

I highly recommend Patagonia Experience Travel and will be traveling again soon with Jefferson and his team.

My husband and I decided to visit Patagonia!

The first search I did on Google brought up Patagonia Experience.

Right away, I was enchanted by the itineraries and decided to book the trip for my husband, stepchildren, and myself.

From the very first call, I was well attended to and all my questions were answered. I had no doubts and booked the package.

I didn’t regret it for a second. Excellent service, perfect itineraries, hotels, and hosts. It was one of the most beautiful trips we’ve ever taken in our lives.
Thank you so much for the excellence of the services!

We returned this morning from our trip to Buenos Aires, El Calafate, and Ushuaia.
We were warmly welcomed by all the guides, who were punctual and helpful.
I would especially like to thank Julián (Buenos Aires) — he was very attentive and gave us all the support we needed.
Martin in El Calafate was great with taking photos, explained the formation of the glaciers in detail, and was very considerate with my mother, who has significant difficulty walking.

The team was very professional throughout all the activities. The guide Mariano took us to Tierra del Fuego National Park — it was just our family group, and he led the tour with great care and answered all our questions with dedication.
The guide Franco was equally attentive during the 4x4 tour.
In short, we can only thank you all for helping us make this great adventure come true.

Good morning, everyone

First of all, I’d like to thank the entire team at the agency for their prompt service. From the very first contact—Guilherme, Ruth who welcomed us here in São Paulo (such a sweetheart), Eduardo who answered every question I had during the trip, to Jefferson who made me feel completely at ease in the end. A huge thank you to all of you.

What can I say about the trip... it was the fulfillment of a dream.

The city of El Calafate is lovely. Very different from anything we had seen before. The local guides were excellent. Karina was cheerful and committed. On the first day, we went to Perito Moreno with Nadia. Such a friendly person, who explained everything to us the entire time. She was amazing. The landscape speaks for itself. Simply majestic.

The next day we went on the Ríos de Hielos tour, which was fantastic. This is an absolute must. It's the top of the top. Seeing the floating icebergs... the boat is very comfortable and the staff is professional. Taking pictures with the ice is something everyone has to do, haha. The Alto Calafate Hotel is very cozy, and the staff was helpful.

In Ushuaia, the real adventure in nature began. Everything is beautiful and wild. The team from Tierra Turismo was also very special. Marcelo is quite a character. Franco and Côco are incredibly kind people. The tours were amazing and unforgettable. I can’t forget to mention the king crab fishing. Diana, who welcomed us, was very attentive and the food, prepared in the local way, was divine. Another unmissable experience.

Visiting the penguin colony was also the realization of a dream. The guides were attentive and kind. Everyone should do this.

Ariel from Rincón Gourmet was also wonderful. The food is special and the atmosphere is unique.

As for the Altos de Ushuaia Hotel, it’s a good and comfortable place. The service from the staff could have been a bit better...

So once again, all I can say about the trip is thank you for everything.

A heartfelt hug to all of you.

I wanted a different kind of trip: Away from the usual routes, where there was a lot of contemplation and little consumerism. It was exactly what my family needed at that moment, and I think we couldn't have made a better choice.

Patagonia was EVERYTHING we hoped for and much more.

Amidst stunning landscapes, wildlife up close, the perfect balance of adventure and comfort, we had an amazing and emotional week. It's a trip that leaves an impact, shifts perspectives, and exposes you to a reality very different from ours. Nature is a grand protagonist, placing everything and everyone in its rightful place.

At times, it stands out for its grandeur and spectacle, other times for its simplicity, and at other moments, it joins the journey with tenderness.

WE LOVED getting to know it, and the carefully crafted itinerary by Patagonia Experience was perfect for our family and our goal.

High points included the Penguin Colony and the Glaciers Gourmet tour.

The week was intense, as there was an activity planned every day, with little time for "leisure," which, in the end, I think we missed a bit, especially with small children. If I were to go again, I would maybe add two more days to the trip, with a day between cities for some free time to relax, enjoy the hotel, or explore the cities without rushing.

But other than that, I was VERY well taken care of BEFORE, DURING, and AFTER our trip.

An experienced, attentive, and helpful team.

Congratulations and thank you.

I will go back a little in time:
In 2008, I was awarded by a well-known magazine with a trip to Patagonia.
The question was: What would change in your life if you were standing in front of the Perito Moreno?
And among more than 10,000 responses, mine was the chosen one, the winner!
It was with this prize that, in June 2008, accompanied by my eldest son, I fell in love with Patagonia—it was truly love at first sight! Standing in front of Perito Moreno, I was able to understand the grandeur and beauty of nature.
I remember walking with Guto through the center of El Calafate, and we stopped at a travel agency. All excited, I asked if we could go see the penguins! They explained that the distance to Ushuaia was great and that there were no penguins in June. By one of those ironies of fate, our flight back to Buenos Aires made a stop in Ushuaia, completely off route... and as I looked outside, everything was covered in snow, so beautiful, I said to my son: my next stop will be Ushuaia.

I fulfilled this dream in June 2013, accompanied by my daughter Cristina and my 7-year-old grandson Bruno, who was so excited he could hardly contain himself... I don’t even need to mention the jumps we made in the 4x4.
This time, everything was organized by Patagonia Experience... and since all good things are short-lived, and there was almost no snow, we returned the following year with a lot of SNOW! But this time, instead of just the three of us, two more intruders joined us: my son Fernando and his little girl Larissa, who was 3 years old. Lari and Bruno had a blast in the snow, enjoying every minute of this trip.
I don’t even need to confess to you how happy I was watching and participating in all this fun with the kids, the four of them, yes, because my son and daughter turned into kids too.

And once again, you guys at Patagonia Experience exceeded all expectations.
But there was still something very special missing, a dream of mine: to walk among the penguins...
Dreams come true, and so, talking to a childhood friend who really wanted to visit Patagonia, we started planning our trip. Once again, everything was planned and organized by Patagonia Experience, under Guilherme’s direction, and we had a wonderful trip in every sense. With each tour, a new emotion.

The guides from Tierra Turismo are cheerful, helpful, punctual, and enriched every tour with their knowledge of wildlife, flora, the environment, and of course, everything was PERFECT!
I forgot one detail: my friend, who is from Rio, added three more cariocas to this trip, and I consider myself a paulistana. I never imagined there would be so much harmony, laughter, joy, wine glasses, and unity between cariocas and paulistas! Thank you, friends, thank you, Patagonia Experience, and thank you so much for having you, Jefferson and Guilherme, leading this adventure of ours.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Already imagining the next trip...

First there were two, then three, four, and finally five people eager to explore Patagonia.

The program was chosen, and we found ourselves on a wonderful and complete trip.

Everything was perfect, just like the place: Ushuaia amazed us, and El Calafate took us by surprise with tours and guides who shared the history of the cities and kept us informed about all the environmental care.

Wonderful days that will never be forgotten.

Thank you, Patagonia Experience.

Congratulations Guilherme and team!

An unforgettable trip!

Even though I had already seen many photos of the glaciers, standing in front of that monument was pure emotion.

The walk through the forest, with the surprise barbecue prepared by the fun guides, Marcelo and Franco, was just amazing.

In El Calafate, being welcomed for dinner inside the cave, with a nice hot soup, warmed both body and soul.

Unusual experiences that will stay in my memory forever.

Thank you all.

Dear members of Patagonia Experience,

Congratulations on your competence and the tours you suggested. The hotels were excellent, and the support staff was impeccable. Everything worked flawlessly.

What we enjoyed the most—if it's even possible to choose just one tour—was the trip to Penguin Island. It's unmissable, as it was a unique and unprecedented experience.

The trip was a great discovery and brought us much joy. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Congratulations to the entire team. We have no suggestions—just our heartfelt thanks.

This January vacation, I had an amazing trip with my wife and our 12-year-old son. We went to Patagonia with Patagonia Experience. It was an unforgettable 17-day journey.

We visited four main destinations: Puerto Madryn, Ushuaia, El Calafate, and Villa La Angostura, each with its own attractions. In Puerto Madryn, we explored the Valdez Peninsula and surrounding areas to see the local wildlife, especially penguins. Next, we traveled to Ushuaia, in Tierra del Fuego, where we experienced snow in the middle of January! We took several tours through the area’s stunning natural landscapes, including a 4x4 excursion, a boat trip, and more. Our third stop was El Calafate, where we visited the Perito Moreno and Uppsala glaciers. We did another 4x4 tour, a boat trip, and other activities. Finally, we headed to Villa La Angostura, on the shore of Lake Nahuel Huapi, across from Bariloche. There, we rented a car and drove the Seven Lakes Route, hiked up Cerro Bayo, and took a boat ride on the lake. The sun was shining, and the days were beautiful. I can't say which place was the most beautiful—each one was part of 17 wonderful days.

We did everything as a private tour, with planning by Ruth and the Patagonia Experience team, who arranged the hotels, all the packages, transfers, tours, guides, local operators, and flights. The service was flawless—everything went perfectly, like a Swiss watch. It started with the detailed itinerary and materials they sent, explaining everything clearly, followed by Ruth’s and her team’s kindness in answering our questions and adjusting the plans and dates according to our interests. And finally, the trip itself, which went smoothly in every way. They truly deserve congratulations!

Going to Patagonia with the family was an incredible experience!

It was a great joy to provide the children with such special views and stories, from a different angle of South America.

And I cannot thank and congratulate PATAGONIA EXPERIENCE enough for organizing everything!!!!

We only had to worry about enjoying the unique moments in a magical place, always guided by qualified guides who were eager to make our vacation unforgettable.

Hi Guilherme!

Our trip was splendid! We never imagined that a place could surprise us so much! All the hotels were perfect—comfortable and very well located. The local tour operators also worked flawlessly, and we felt truly well taken care of, with great attention and dedication. We need to give special praise to Ignacio from the Ushuaia team—we became fans of his. Our kids ask about him every day, such was the attention and kindness he showed us.

In El Calafate, we thoroughly enjoyed the tours and the charming cabin where we stayed.

It's impossible to choose our favorite tour—they were all excellent—but we have to highlight the Ríos de Hielo, as it was truly the most surprising.

We are deeply grateful to the Patagonia Experience team for organizing our vacation trip with such great taste, competence, and professionalism. We were very satisfied with the result, and since we ate Calafate berries straight from the bush, as the locals say, we’re sure we’ll be back! Patagonia truly enchanted us!

Thank you!
