What our guests say about this trip

This trip was extremely well-organized for us. All the people that picked us up from the airport, the drivers, and the guides were very punctual. We loved the options available to chose our own area to travel, and the way in which we wanted to travel, which was partially by using bikes. Amelia was especially thoughtful to meet with us at the first hotel in Buenos Aires and she called to check up on us at frequent intervals, and that was also appreciated. The wine and cheese and the massage provided by her were an added plus! The guides we had were, on-the-whole, very knowledgeable about the area, culture, and history. The bikes were in super condition, with front shocks. The scenery in these areas was incredible. We are very glad that we spent the time in the places that we did. We had a taste of Buenos Aires, a wonderful biking experience in the countryside with incredible views, and will remember

The guides we had were, on-the-whole, very knowledgeable about the area, culture, and history. The bikes were in super condition, with front shocks. The scenery in these areas was incredible. We are very glad that we spent the time in the places that we did. We had a taste of Buenos Aires, a wonderful biking experience in the countryside with incredible views, and will remember Igauzu Falls for years to come. It was a fantastic trip! We felt we experienced more of the culture of the area by biking and staying in smaller towns. The colors of the mountain in Hornocal is one of the most unusual sights in the world, as is the falls. Amelia was a gem who gave us a sense of added security, and we can’t add enough thanks for all that she did while we were in the country.
