Hotel Vendaval

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

AR, Reading

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

We have travelled a lot in our lifetime but nothing prepares you for the breadth of landscapes that you will encounter in Chile. We had three weeks there and felt we only scratched the surface. 

CM

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

PM, Redditch

Highlights: Arrival at Tierra Patagonia hotel: and seeing two wild pumas nearby! 

PG, Oxford

Highlights?: Too many to mention ! Great mix of culture, sights and experiences. Love the inclusion of a horse ride from The Singular in Patagonia.

HJ,

We really enjoyed Easter Island but the Atacama was the most memorable part!

ME, Caernarfon

So many highlights- Tatio geyser, base of Torres del Paine walk, seeing puma and Easter Island memories for life

HM, Bristol

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."

MT, Henley-on-Thames

Wonderful

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.

AK, Stoke Newington

Most Memorable Moment?: Difficult to say as so many. I think seeing the first upright statues on Easter Island as I've wanted to see them since I was a child

BN, Marlborough

Most Memorable Moment: Cycling around Puerto Varas in Chile.

JL, Studley

Patagonia, the scenery and wildlife, getting up close to a glacier, Easter Island fulfilling a childhood dream and much more, the perfect volcano, Osorno, the geology and flamingoes of the Atacama. Santiago and Buenos Aires both quite different but equally fascinating.

EL, London

Highlight: The Atacama Desert

BL, Tunbridge wells

Highlights?: Afternoon trek in the Moon Valley Atacama to see the sunset. It was magical.  Patagonian 12K trek to Grey Glacier and boat trip to face of glacier.  Rapa Nui to see the Moai at the quarry and Tongariki.  

GB, Lytham st. annes

Long way to go but thoroughly enjoyed just concentrating on one country i.e. Chile which our destinations covered in detail from top to toe and made us feel that we had really experienced life in Chile.

CF, Worthing

Breathtaking!

CM, Trowbridge

Most Memorable Moment?: For me, Torres del Paine as it appeared and disappeared through the clouds. The Explora hotel is in a fantastic setting and the views of the mountains are stunning. For my wife, she loved the Atacama and the Moon Valley in particular. Walking through the valley when there were just the three of us was really memorable.

JM, Hatfield

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

BM, Macclesfield

Being served Pisco Sours on the deck of the boat at Grey Glacier.  The scenery was stunning and came as a surprise after the poor visibility on the outward trip.

AM, Glasgow

The lasting impressions of this great country will be with me forever. So will the fantastic photos and memories.

PC, Hereford

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

Patagonia- exceeded very high expectations. JLA were great.

AH, Northampton

Most Memorable Moment?: Rapa Nui - a unique environment with lots of architectural and historical interest and also comtemporary culture (Tapati festival). Very interesting.

AB, Burnham-On-Crouch

Chile Best parts of the holiday: “Too many to name one but certainly Moon Valley, the salt lake lagoon, the Glacier at Torres de Paine” 

SJ, Welwyn

Highlights: Visiting Patagonia and staying at the Patagonia camp

FT, Mansfield

Patagonia for its stark beauty, stunning snow covered mountains and tranquility.

SB, Solihull

I loved the desert and my husband liked Patagonia.  The lunch in the Casablanca wine valley was outstanding.

SD,

Each separate part of the trip was excellent. Patagonia most memorable for scenery and Easter Island for history and scenery.

RR, Aberdeen

Amazing!

Chile was AMAZING!!! We loved the country, the scenery and all the people we met. Glad we had warm clothes for the trip or we would have come unstuck in Atacama, especially when going to the geysers as it was minus ten degrees. As we approached the cruise time we wondered if we'd cope with the Zodiacs, but everyone was so helpful and safety conscious. The all-time highlight of so many on our holiday was, standing in silence at the Pia Glacier.
