Visiting Laguna del Inca - Early departure - 5:30 am for me - then collecting some other clients, one hour drive and then we had breakfast halfway there (Los Andes possibly). There were some lamas and toilet facility. Then another one-hour drive to reach Laguna del Inca. There was a short stop to take photos of curvy road climbing up to Los Andes. The road goes to other side of Los Andes to Mendoza, Argentina. You can see beautiful mountains on the way, unless you are sleeping. It was a beautiful day; sunny and -5C in Lacuna del Inca. Some snow. You can go for skiing; we didn't have time for it. We stayed 1.5 hours there. Toilets were available with small fee. There is a restaurant inside the hotel, but it opens at 12:30. But there were some small kiosks, where to buy snacks. On the way back we had short stop in the same place as in the morning. Tour operator had organized lunch: some red wine, grapes, cheese, sweet, music etc. I didn't expect that, so it was a nice surprise. Don't go too close to the lamas, they can spit on your face. Actually, they did it for one client. We were back to Santiago around 3 pm. Mostly clients were from Brazil, Uruguay and Chile. All in all, it was nice day trip outside Santiago. Guide Rafael had nice stories to tell, and driver Antonio drove as fast as he could (safely though) :) Very well-organized trip! If you don't want to spend your whole trip in Santiago, this is good trip to take to see other beautiful places in Chile.

Excellent experience - Valentina excellent guide and Manuel in driving very good! Punctual times and beautiful scenery!! It's really worth it!

Inca Laggon - Beautiful place to visit. Is a little far from Santiago. But the view is amazing.. Diego was a wonderful guide. I do recommend the tour.

The only way to see Aconcagua from Chile - The journey starts from the city, goes through drylands full of cacti and then up through the mountain pass. The road and bus were very good. The views at the lagoon were amazing. A picnic lunch was provided which was refreshing. The guide was helpful. The only thing that could be improved is communication. Being informed at 10pm the night before is very inconvenient.

If I could give this tour 10 stars... - <p>If I could give this tour 10 stars, I would! Portillo Lagoon is a unique place. We were only tourists on that day and the car that picked us up was new, very friendly driver and great tour guide. If you love mountains, this place is definitely for you! We also stopped by the river, where the water was so clean, you could drink it! Overall, very nice place!</p>

Peace, the freshest of air and... - <p>Peace, the freshest of air and magnificent scenery! We were amazed that the tour took place since we we the only two in the 6 seater car but Willi, our independent tour guide, was happy to see us and to entertain us with information and jokes all the way - and it is a long drive to and from, up twisting, climbing, narrow roads. We opted to have lunch at the hotel and again, we were the only clients until two more followed as we left. The food was delicious, the service very calm and friendly and I had my first but not last pisco sour.It was one of the most memorable trips of our cruise and definitely worthwhile - if you don't mind several hours in the car and, due to the elevation, have no breathing problems.</p>

Inca Lagoon - The scenarios all along to the lagoon is not impressive. The 34 turns on the road might make you dizzy. The inca Lagoon well is solo. Visit to the small winery is not that good particularly it takes up so much of the time of the day. We joined the tour on March 5 via aviator.

I booked this for my parents who do... - <p>I booked this for my parents who do not speak Spanish. I specified to have English guide, but the driver who came does not speak English at all. My parents were the only 2 person in the group. No introduction or any communication from the driver throughout the whole trip. Based on the tour description, it sounds like it will stop at Chacabuco Monument and a few other places, in fact the driver only made one stop at the Inca Lagoon for 2 hours. My parents were picked up from hotel at 7:40 am, and were dropped at the hotel at 2:15 pm. That's 6.5 hrs, instead of the 10 hrs described on the website. The last straw. My dad forgot his hat on the car. The hotel staff made several calls to the company and the driver to see if the driver can find it. Never heard anything back from the driver. This is by far the worst experience in my parents' 20 days south America trip.</p>
