"A holiday of many contrasts but I particularly enjoyed the time spent in the Atacama, especially the early morning trip to the geysers".

Highlights? "Torres del Paine, fantastic scenery, flora and fauna, good hotel. 
Atacama salt flats and lagoons - as above.
Valparaiso - fascinating and photogenic.
Christmas afternoon on the beach at Vina del Mar as organised by Veronica.  We had a great time.

We would have liked an extra day for relaxing at all the places we stayed but we understand that would make the holiday much longer and more expensive.

Nice to have a small group - interesting travel companions."

"Days were organised so that although we had to get up very early, as Duncan siad, we got the most out of the day."

Highlights? "Mine - Torres del Paine and boat trip to Glacier, Husband - Atacama.  The day on Chiloe was out of this world - needed a holiday to get over it but really superb - can't believe we had so many experiences in one day.  Fantastic day out recommend to anyone."

"Puerto Varas was very quiet - tourist season not really started but we still enjoyed it."

"Excellent organisation during trip, great group of fellow travellers and terrific tour guide.  Cannot think of a thing that would make the holiday more special!

It was a great size group (8).  I appreciated being told the age range and make up of group prior to travelling, as I felt reassured that I would fit in."

"All parts of the tour were excellent separately and all together.  Great holiday and excellent tour leader (Duncan Griffin).  The other two external tour leaders used in the Atacama and Chiloe were also excellent."

Highlights? “there were so many it is difficult to chose – but probably the extremes of the heat of the Atacama, the rain at Puerto Montt and the chill from the southern ocean at Seno Otway”.

"A wonderful trip with amazing contrasting scenery and we were well looked after by Sally.  Patagonia was beautiful and we were lucky with the weather throughout (someone stop those winds though!!!).  Chiloe Island also lovely.

"Expensive but worth every penny.  Have been furthest south, west and highest ever.  Seen a huge range of scenery and wildlife. Packed so much in need time to digest. A wonderful experience."
