Expedition loaded with emotions without equal, so much for the magnitude of the landscapes, the rough weather, the work of the mules, guides and baqueanos, added to the historical stamp that is printed in each moment in each camp, where in a certain way we relived the epic of that great patriot Don José de San Martín and his liberating troops, who chose these ravines, mountain ranges, valleys and steps to start our freedom as a country and as a continent.

They have everything very oiled, you have to carry good vibes and know that you have to camp with everything that means. And enjoy the night that towering sky

Beautiful experience. Only recommended for all those who understand that things are accomplished with effort. It helps to size up St. Martin’s Gesture in its crusade to release chili.

I participated last week in the crossing of the Andes on horseback following the route of the Gral San Martin through the pass of Los Patos. An unforgettable experience, highly recommended for those who want to enjoy extraordinary landscapes in their purest state, want to be thrilled with the San Martiniana Gesture and are willing to face the discomforts of this type of expedition. Totally justified the sacrifice made and the cost of the proposal.. Assisted and guided very professionally by the people of Posta Inca, led by Cristian and with the accompaniment of Eugenia and Facundo nothing can go wrong.. Eternally grateful to have been part of this great week of riding in the company of a group of 19 people with cultural, economic and social diversities that enriched the experience. I hope I can continue to participate in other similar proposals

The view of the colossal mountains are magnificent. Even if millions of photos or films are taken. What the eyes register cannot compare to the emotion of being there. Fantastic experience!

I will try to be brief, even if it is impossible. Each of the pre-during and post-trip aspects are seamless. Cristian loves what he does and transmits it, Eugenia is always available with a smile, the team of baqueanos transmit security and respect, their dedication and love for the animals and the mountains, their home, is truly admirable. I recommend it a thousand times, this and any adventure that is undertaken with Cristian and Posta Inca at the helm. Millions of thanks fulfilled the dream of my life and made it better. I will be back Luis

Nature at its maximum splendor, living and perceiving every moment in that wonderful natural environment, it is impossible to describe it in words, you just have to experience it.

From a very young age I was interested in the outdoors, traveling around the world, but I always wanted to return to the Andes. At 20 years old, I had crossed them through Uspallata. A bit by hand, another bit by walking, when in Chile I had been left without a weight. This summer, I set out, after 50 years, to make the crossing again. Study the different alternatives there were, opt for the one of the Paso de los Patos. It was through which the army of Saint Martin had crossed, the one that was still a virgin of the 4X4. It was to do again what the Sanmartinian army did. Posta Inca Service is excellent, a guide, plus two muleteers, controlling our ride. They accompanied us for six days, behind us came more than 6 mules with all our belongings, tents and food. Not cheap, but the Service is excellent. When I returned to Barreal, I realized that I had been the best, I recommend it.
