Travel to the South of Patagonia

  Travel to the South of Patagonia

On a scale of 0 to 10, we would give Boris Patagonia 15 out of 10 without hesitation for the organization (flights, airport receptions, choice of people who welcome you, especially upon arrival in Buenos Aires, choice of local tourist agencies, impeccable follow-up by SMS or phone calls, etc.).

When we know how important and very difficult logistics are to set up… A big Bravo to Boris and his team. A special mention to the hotels chosen by Boris. Charm and atmosphere reflecting that of the city in which they are located. Always a little out of the way, but taxis are so cheap that it is not a problem. We had asked Boris for a “tailor-made” travel based on our desires, our age and our abilities. What was offered to us corresponded perfectly.

The only downsides were the imponderables (rain, climate and climate change with its consequences on the behavior of certain species, etc.) Nothing very important in fact. We were told that we were lucky enough to see a whale with its calf. This year there were fewer of them and they left earlier. No elephant seals, lots of sea lions! But the day before, a couple had been able to see, very close up, orcas teaching their calf how to hunt elephant seals by coming to beach themselves on the beach. So there is an element of “chance” and Boris can’t do anything about it! He doesn’t yet command the weather any more than he does the whales and marine animals. He’s not Neptune!

What we remember from this trip:

1. The desire to return. There’s still so much to discover. The desire to spend more time in the cities we “crossed”, especially Buenos Aires and Puerto Madryn. In Ushuaia we really want to be able to explore the national park at our own pace, therefore alone. This park is a marvel. Not to mention the north of Patagonia… Which we’ll go and greet as soon as possible.
2. Human encounters that will last…
3. The encounter with the glaciers, of course! Perfect organization of the trip, especially with the private boat trip. Also perfect is Boris’ recommendation to take, as an extra, the captain’s cabin for the group boat trip. It is absolutely recommended.
4. What is certain is that it will be Boris who will organize our future trips, at least in his geographical area.

THANK YOU Boris and thanks to Mariana
