A breathtaking glacier and an awesome guide !!

5.00My girlfriend and I wanted to see the Moreno Glacier and Daniel was our guide. We watched the glacier calving and Daniel explained what was happening while he was taking a video of the event. Before leaving the National Park, Daniel laid out a black & white checkered table cloth on a large rock and we enjoyed some wine, cheeses and desserts. It was just a perfect way to end our tour and I have shared the video he took with all of my friends……they thought it was a National Geographic video !!
See you on a next adventure!

5.00Hard to find experiences outside the crowds. If you want to visit Patagonia without being locked in a boat with 100 other tourists, do not be afraid of the strength of your legs and the fresh air, this is where you have to look. Daniel, an expert in Patagonian nature, is your guide.
