We are in airport about to leave to get back to Italy.
Chascomus was just ok. The Estancia had basic services and food was just ok. People were nice and did everything they could to accomodate our desires. In spite of this the price was overall to high If compared with what we got.

The overall experience has been excellent. The have had a wonderful time in Argentina and everything worked really well.
What we liked the most of Say Huque has been the fact that we felt really taken for. It looked like our trip was unique. We would reccomend Say Hueque to anybody. We have also to thank you personally for the effort you put when we did changes also in a very short notice, like the visit to San Antonio de Areco we enjoyed a lot.

The hotels we like the most are Indigo in Puerto Natales and Cilene El Faro in Ushuaia. Also Esplendor in El Calafate was nice.
The hotel in Punta Arenas was basic, only the breakfast was very good.

So at the end thanks Carolina for the great support you provided. It was nice meeting you in your Office.

Hi Agustina,
Thank you for your note and the recipe. We’re back in the U.S. and have finally settled in our daily routine. Let me give you our answers.

We really enjoyed, from beginning to end, how you and your company kept us informed about our trip and what to expect. The whole experience was a pleasant adventure and we were never disappointed. It was so organized and the people who were assigned to us were all pleasant and accommodating—I think that is what is best about the whole trip.

Actually, we liked very much the two hotels we stayed in – in Purmamarca and in Salta. They staff in both places treated us very well and were helpful and pleasant. And the hotels and rooms were cozy and clean.

We very much enjoyed our guide, Francois Delhert, who attended singularly to us on the trip from Salta to Purmamarca.

Should we plan a trip to Argentina and/or Chile, we will definitely get in touch with you again.
Sincerely,
Maria and Vito Tanzi

We have nothing but great things to say about our experience in Argentina

Hi Deborah,

We have nothing but great things to say about our experience in Argentina, and our trip to the Iguazu Falls with Say Hueque was certainly a highlight of the trip! All correspondence was answered in a timely manner, and questions were answered thoroughly. We enjoyed our time in Puerto Iguazu and the Hotel Amerian was an excellent hotel. Having a local guide meet us and provide recommendations, for both sights and restaurant was very much appreciated. We enjoyed all of our meals, particularly those with the local fish, and of course the Argentine wine!

The 2 days spent at the Falls were experiences we'll never forget, and we have hundreds of pictures to remind us of our time there. We recommend seeing the Falls from both the Argentine and Brazilian sides to get the full experience. The Great Adventure boat ride was a great chance to see the falls upclose (and a chance to cool off). We were disappointed to here that the DVD of our boat ride hadn't arrived a few hours before we were set to check out. However after calling Deborah, our local guide, she coordinated a pick up by a Hotel Amerian staff member so we received the video before leaving for the airport. Very much appreciated and excellent customer service by all!

All the best and we hope to visit Argentina again in a few years!

Hi Vanesa,

Sorry for the delay. I attached some pics! We absolutely loved Argentina and the people. Say Hueque did a great job at organising everything. We were very impressed with the professionalism and the high quality of the tour guides we had everywhere.

The only hotel we didn’t care for as mentioned to you, was Patagonia Rebelde Hotel in El Calafate. It was a bit far from the town centre and the people running it seemed to lack that personalised touch that all other places had. Also the rooms are very small and the walls are thin. But otherwise, all hotels were great!

Thanks for the recipe. We will definitely try it out!

We have already recommend Say Hueque to a few friends that would like to visit Argentina.

If you ever make it to SA – pls let us know!

Thanks again for a great trip.

Regards,

Patrick & Theresa

Carolina

Thank you for your e-mail.

We had a marvelous time on the itinerary your company arranged. The hotels were all good, and comfortable. The address for the hotel in el Calafate was incorrect in the itinerary. Breakfasts were generally good with the exception of Mil810 in Ushuaia which little in the way of healthy options.

We had one minor hiccup in Ushuaia when the time on the itinerary for the excursion was 50 minutes after the actual pick up time. This excursion was excellent and there were some unexpected but delightful elements including a great hot lunch and great guides.

My only disappointment, beyond your control, was I did not get to see a Patagonian woodpecker in the wild. One was sited from the bus on the excursion from Ushuaia but I did not see it.

We are happy to recommend your company to our friends and to use you again if we were in this part of the world.
Regards
Nick

We had a wonderful time and would really like to return.

We had a wonderful time and would really like to return.

Hi Carolina,

Sorry for the delay getting back to you put I can down with a nasty cold upon our return and I am just getting back to normal

We had a wonderful time and would really like to return. The people were very friendly and food and wine excellent! All excursions we did were excellent and very well run and organized

EL Calafate
• Had a great time there and a very nice town.
• Ice River cruise was probably the highlight of our trip followed very closely by the mini trekking on the Perito Moreno glacier.
• Glacier museum was pretty good and we also went to the Ice bar as well.
• We walked extensively in Calafate and also biked along the water front of the lake, Awesome views and an easy ride. Our hotel Kai Yutan had bikes for free but for the serious biker I would suggest renting some good bikes in town, Very reasonable prices and nice equipment
• Missed going to El Chalten, I would suggest a day trip up there to see Fitz Roy however I have heard that unless the weather is good you really cannot see anything.
• Kai Yutan hotel was very nice, we loved the lobby, restaurant and staff but we had a room in the lower part of the hotel and it was very old and very small. No view at all but it had a very nice King size bed. Which was much appreciated after busy days trekking. Rooms on the front of the hotel had a better view and seemed bigger (just looked in from the hallway when other guests checked out)
• Staff in the local travel agency were wonderful, in fact one of the employees came to our hotel the afternoon of our arrival and organized the last minute change to allow us to do the mini trekking. Truly about the and beyond the call of duty
• Very hearty breakfast, whole grain breads, eggs & bacon (had to get there early or that ran out). Lots of fruit & cereal & sweet pastries
• Only negative comment, upon our arrival the local tour guide that met us at the airport spoke virtually no English which was a little distressing at first because she was giving instructions in Spanish but we did not understand. However Hotel staff were great and then the Juan Jose (I think that was his name) came to our hotel to make the mini trekking change for the next day.
• Unfortunately we did not fit in the ½ day Cerro Frias tour (we wanted to horseback ride) realized to late in the day.
• Found a nice little wine bar called the “Wilkens” located on main road just past Av 17 de Octubre across from the Distro Sur grocery store

Ushuaia
• All tours were great!
• Went to Maritime and Ushuaia jail the afternoon we arrived, it was pretty good and we learned a lot about the area.
• Enjoyed the hike and paddling in the Tierra Del Fuego park. We had a beautiful day. Lunch was great then went paddling for about 45 mins
• Penguin farm was excellent, we were able to get very close to the Penguins and being able to walk with them was great. However some people thought that it was a little far to go 1 ½ bus ride (each way) for a 1 hour walk with the penguins. I would suggest the morning tour since it was a smaller group about 16 (smaller group then the afternoon) big bus of about 40. For the morning tour we all went to walk with the penguins together, then had cup of tea/coffee in the tea room followed by a quick visit to the Marine Museum. We really enjoyed the museum and would have liked a little more time there since we only got about 35 mins. We thoroughly enjoyed the day.
• Cruise on Beagle Channel, this was good tour for the day of departure since we were done about 2:00 pm and still had time to do some shopping before heading out at 8:30 on the plane. Tour guide on the Patagonia Adventure Explorer was excellent! Also the boat is a little smaller and can get very close to the sea Lions which was great
• Hostel Jarko was great, very clean and staff was very helpful. Breakfast was a little sparse, not much selection, toast, fruit, limited cereal and some cheese and ham.
• Rooms very small but great views off the front ( in the upper newer part of the hotel) and they had an electric kettle in the room to make tea or coffee at night.
• Had a great dinner at Volver, recommended by the hotel, crab was excellent
• BTW the chairlift just at the edge of town is not operating anymore, it has been shut down for a couple of years. You can still hike up there but cannot ride the chairlift

Aerolinas Argentina flights were excellent. On time and all new planes. Travel was very comfortable.

I will forward some pictures from our trip in separate email.

From start to finish this company is bar none. They provided timely, informative information and answers to any questions and were always professional and extremely service minded. It was an absolute joy to deal with them and we would always recommend them. If you want personal attention as well as attention to every detail of your trip, this is the company to use.
