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.

Unforgettable experience. 6 days inside the mountain range on horseback sleeping the serene at the mercy of Mother Nature in an imposing landscape for the immense and the cute. Beyond the emotional content of walking the footprint where St. Martin crossed with his army, mountain life totally in tune with nature is mobilizing. Without any amenities, but enjoying every little thing that gives you life in the day. You spend moments of fear, joy, a lot of physical tiredness. Strong sensations that are lost in modern life. Enjoy a matte by the fire pit under a blanket of stars with a troupe of horses around after a strenuous day where you went from a scorching heat to a hailstorm and wind that swept your horse away. Or get up and see snow where there was no snow before and the poncho q covers the white sleeping bag by the frost. You realize how small we are. Sleeping the serene every night in that environment was magical. Posta Inca service is excellent. I recommend them every day!

We made the crossing to the Andes through the Passage of the Ducks from January 10 to 17, 2026, following in the footsteps of General San Martin, and the experience with Posta Inca was simply exceptional. From the first contact, professionalism, human warmth and permanent care for each member of the group are highlighted. Throughout the journey one feels contained, accompanied and safe, with attention to detail that makes a difference. Cristian, one of the owners, is the one who accompanies the expedition: the first to get up and the last to lie down. Even after long days of riding, he always keeps the good mood and is attentive to everything the group needs. And as if that weren’t enough, it manages to surprise you day after day with amazing meals over 3,500 meters high — like a spectacular fish in the Cave of Puma — and at night, succulent and comforting dishes that give you back your body after an intense day of crossing. Cowboys deserve a separate paragraph: with admirable serenity and constant warmth, they are always on the lookout for the horses and each expeditionary, taking care of you at all times and accompanying you with a fair word during the long rides. Euge is the other big leg of the company. It gives all the communication before the trip: answers doubts, organizes, simplifies and orders everything related to the stay, the arrival and who to turn to for any consultation. Your prior accompaniment conveys peace of mind and confidence from the outset. A key point in making the experience fully enjoyable is security. The use of the helmet — which over the days becomes part of one — and the possibility of taking out insurance with helicopter rescue set a very high standard. Many may think it unnecessary, but those of us who have been at those peaks know that the peace of mind of knowing that in any eventuality they can rescue you in minutes is priceless. In fact, that was one of the main reasons I chose Posta Inca. Simply put: Posta Inca is 100% recommended, not only for its operational excellence, but for the enormous human quality with which they care and protect each expeditionary. An unforgettable experience, with absolutely nothing to criticize.

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
