Wonderful picnic lunch with empanadas & fruit & nuts & tea, coffee & Orange Juice. I work in tourism & will be recommending to all my travellers what more can I say?? You'll have a great time in the crystal clear waters.

5.00Today we make the crossing that leaves from Bahia Brava in El Puerto and runs throughout Fray Menendez Island. The day was unbeatable, sunny and very calm the Lake, which allowed this tour. Mariano, the Guide, an incredible treatment, explained us super detailed in every moment that he maneuvers in the Kayak, flora and fauna of the place and history of it. Halfway through, we stopped at a very nice beach and prepared a super complete breakfast (fresh fruit, nuts, delicious crescents, infusions, everything). An amazing and unforgettable experience. You have to live it in the flesh to feel what it generates.

5.00This was a wonderful trip, I could do this over and over again. It’s a beautiful location, very peaceful and nice views. You stop at an island for a snack and drink and it’s a nice break. The group had fun and I just was so happy to get a chance to be on the water in this amazing place.
An Essential Kayak Tour of Lago Nahuel Huapi

5.00Our half-day kayak tour with Mariano was a magical experience. Lago Nahuel Huapi is a wonderful habitat, full of beautiful forests, birds and history. But the real treasure of this experience is Mariano himself. His kayaking equipment is top-notch, and Mariano made sure we were secure and comfortable at every stage of our trip. He is tremendously knowledgeable about the regional habitat and has the global travel and guide experience to put it into proper perspective. Our beach picnic was delicious, with an excellent presentation of and participation in the hierba mate ceremony. Mariano is a terrific ambassador for Argentina and Parque Nacional Nahuel Huapi. We recommend his tour highly and would gladly do it again.
An amazing day! Super recommended

5.00This kayak tour absolutely surpassed expectations ! Book this with Mariano/ Dalca . The morning of our tour was picture perfect - the lake was like glass. Mariano gave us all information to maneuver our kayak safely; he provided us w information/ history about the region / lakes ; he fixed us a delicious snack where more conversation ensued. Thank you so much Mariano for adding to our unforgettable memories in Argentina / Villa La angostura !
