Hotel Diego de Almagro Valdivia

Most Memorable Moment?: Very difficult! Vulcan Osorno, Moon Valley (even if not part of the arranged itinerary!), Tatio Geysers, Easter Island statues...

RW, High peak

Highlight?: Touring Easter Island, it was a unique experience, one that is very different to many resort islands that one can visit worldwide.    

DM, Newcastle upon tyne

Highlights: “I went to Chile mainland without any knowledge and was overwhelmed.  The geology was stunning and range of scenery amazing”

PC, Galashiels

Highlight?: Difficult to separate a sunny, windless clear day at Torres del Paine ( plus several others nearly as good).  And deep snow in the Altiplano round Miscanti lakes. So good even the drivers were taking photos.      Both quite excellent.

DH, Milnthorpe

Most Memorable Moment?: So many overall but the glaciers, Torres, the cruise and Orcas/penguins.

AB, Fordingbridge

Highlight?: Patagonia camp

MM, Southsea

Highlight?: Easter Island - amazing place - very good food, hardly any tourists and extraordinary history/statues etc. We could easily have stayed an extra night there. I would strongly recommend hiring a car there. We also booked a snorkelling trip which was good.

CK, Ashtead

A truly memorable trip all round because of the contrasts very difficult to pick the most memorable but Valparasio Casa Higueras we would have loved to have stayed longer and in Vina del Mar.

DS, Chesham

The Alto Plano of Bolivia was striking. Torres del Paine national park too was memorable as was Perito Moreno glacier. 

GOR,

Highlight?: The Grey Glacier

JC, Ipswich

The three major parts, Atacama, Easter Island and Patagonia were all special in different ways.

BM, Macclesfield

Highlights: The Explora hotel experience and the Perito Moreno glacier

BT, Surbiton

Highlight?: Easter Island and seeing the moai statues was a lifelong dream and did not disappoint. The guide was excellent a fantastic and beautiful island.

LVA, Tamworth

Mount Fitz Roy and Los Torres, particularly the Pliegue tumblado walk.

DS, Leatherhead

The whole experience of Atacama and Torres del Paine was amazing. In between Puerto Varas provided a welcome and relaxing contrast. The introductory tours of Santiago and Valparaiso worked very well and the guides were great... but experience tame compared to the other three destinations! Matetic was a fun last day/night.

KH, London

Chile felt safe and modest, a delight to visit.

NH, Bridgewater

I was amazed and enthralled by Chile and am looking forward to visiting again.

DP, Chiswick

Patagonia- exceeded very high expectations. JLA were great.

AH, Northampton

Time in the Atacama - with Oscar!! Probably one of the most spectacular places we've visited as tourists and we have years of world travel experience behind us.

RB, London

Highlights: Visiting Patagonia and staying at the Patagonia camp

FT, Mansfield

Most Memorable Moment: Cycling around Puerto Varas in Chile.

JL, Studley

Overall we have had two of the most memorable weeks in one of the world’s most varied geographical environments and the friendly Chilean people. Thank you JLA.

SJ, Welwyn

Most Memorable Moment?: Very difficult to pick one from so many but probably the walk up to Torres Del Paine Mirador - although it was a tough day.

SB, Milnthorpe

Most memorable experiences: The Atacama Desert.  An impressive place with friendly people.  The  Ahlarkapin Observatory trip was outstanding and a real highlight.

PM, Redditch

Most memorable experience: "Sailing across the Magelllan Straits and getting off on Cape Horn. This was the key reason for my trip which was motivated by a dim and distant history lesson when I was 12 years old. To think that these treacherous waters were navigated and discovered by sailors in wooden boats over 500 years ago has always been a magical thought. Doing it in the comfort of 21st century luxury was a much better option for me but to think that I have walked in the footsteps of Magellan and later Darwin is quite something else."

TEB, Grays

Numerous memories but seeing a puma emerge from bushes 10 paces or fewer away from us when returning from Mirador las Torres. It totally ignored us but gave us some shaky photos.

EG, Hereford

Highlights?: Flying over the Andes Getting close to the Glacier in Patagonia View from Costanero Tower in Santiago The list goes on

DW, Winchester

Highlights: "Watching the Milky Way in Elquis Valley."

MA, Lancaster

Highlights?: The time in Torres del Paine, both Patagonia Camp and the treks through the stunning scenery.

AR, Reading

Most memorable experience: "So much but probably Torres del Paine, breathtakingly beautiful and not crowded although it was the busiest part of the year. Also the friendliness of the people, and lack of hassle everywhere- the only place where there was a bit was in the fish market in Santiago, but even there it was very low key and the people were not at all pushy."
