Days q stay in memory - The distance between Calafate and El Chalten is a lot but the trip is worth every Km done The bus is very comfortable, super punctual.

Excellent- Patagonia Dreams - Both the Perito Mereno Glacier tour and El Chalten tour by Patagonia Dreams were excellent. The tour guide was fantastic, very informative and great management of tourists with various languages. I would highly recommend this tour.

Great way to see some of Patagonia wildlife and scenery, like Fitz Roy - The best part of this tour is the drive through Patagonia to get to the walking areas. Lots of wildlife and you get to stop about halfway at the Hotel La Leona (lots of history at the hotel, i.e, Butch Cassidy was here in 1905, along with coffee and snacks). Our tour guide was Veronica, very nice young woman. One of the walks includes an ascent of about 1000 feet, so you need to be in at least moderate shape if you want to go to the top of the hill. Nothing much to see in the town of El Chalten, especially after the season when we went (most stores and restaurants are closed). But, if you want to see guanacos, this is the drive to take!

El Chanten, the Frontera of trekking - Getting to El Chanten from El Calafate is a unique experience: 200 km with only one refreshment and no "oil". Then when you are on site you are immediately fascinated by that 'atmosphere of "frontier" with low falls arranged at best with uses of so much wood and colors. Great restaurants. Then, of course, the thrill of starting at dawn with freezing temperature one of the many memorable hikes that start from El Chanten. A few negative notes: this year et considerably increased the ticket for the Park that costs 45,000 pesos and valid for 2 consecutive entrances, but it's worth it. Great memory.

Excellent - It is worth going to see one of the most beautiful landscapes of the mountains of Argentina. Small walks, one medium and another easy, with possibilities to see Condor and every city and another you arrive in a beautiful waterfall. Although 220km from El calafate, on the trail you see typical animals, such as guanacos and choiques. On the way back you rest. Very informative guides and new vehicles.

It was great. - The weather was very nice, in part. The good things about Elcharten and Fitzroy are also great. Furthermore, tour companies are also highly recommended.

Reasonable walk, beautiful place, but nothing else. If you don't have much time, it's not worth staying all day. - Beautiful place, but nothing extraordinary. If you don’t have much time I don’t think it’s worth wasting the whole day on this tour.

Good trip spoiled by rain - It rained the whole day in El Chantén, spoiling the view and the experience. The guide was excellent and explained a lot about Patagonia on the way to El Chantén.
