Amazing one day trip非常精彩的一日游 - 这绝对是我在智利参加过的最值得的行程。Gonzalo和他的团队非常专业。7个游客两个导游,一前一后把各种要求和顾客都照顾得非常好。他们提供的雪地靴也让我们成为路上唯一的徒步团队,可以去看火山口冬天的美景。绝对推荐! This was absolutely the most worthwhile tour I’ve done in Chile. Gonzalo and his team were very professional. With seven guests and two guides, they took great care of everyone and all our different needs. The snow boots they provided also made us the only hiking group on the trail able to enjoy the stunning winter scenery of the volcanic crater.strong recommend.

A great tour! - Wonderful tour! Great guides and beautiful hike! A fantastic experience. I probably wouldn’t recommend this for experienced hikers, however, as there were many stops and slow pace. But otherwise really enjoyed it!

Hiking in the Andes - This is one of the most amazing trips I have been on. The scenery is just spectacular, it was a great adventure in snow shoes, but our guides Andres and Laura were magnificent. They were so knowledgeable and had information and interest in so many different fields (culture, nature, geography, biology, ecology, history). Very personable and welcoming, I would highly recommend this tour.

Impeccable Andes Hike with Andrés - Andrés was the most helpful and dynamic guide. He was constantly checking up on us and making sure we were all okay. He spoiled us with the best energy throughout the entire trip. The van pick-up was on time, and the driver was careful as well.

Beautiful trekking with a fantastic view - This was the best tour I could have imagined for a beautiful and unforgettable tracking around Cajón del Maipo. It was perfectly organized and our guide Ray was very passionate about the nature and caring. We learned about the flora and fauna and just had a magical tracking over the snow. We were the only group and could enjoy the nature to the fullest. The view is fantastic and this tour is perfect for nature lovers. I would highly recommend!

Amazing Day Trek in the Andes - We had a wonderful day trip with Andres. It was well organized and our guide Andres was great from start to finish. The scenery was spectacular, trekking through rocks and some snow, stopping occasionally to get beautiful photos. We had lunch by a small waterfall area and then upon returning from our hike, there was a beautiful table set with snacks and wine for us to enjoy. Overall, an amazing experience!
