Fue estupendo ser recibido con todo organizado, teniendo tickets comprados y hoteles pagados. El trato de todas las personas (choferes y guías) fue muy amable y atento a ayudarnos a resolver cualquier incidente. Disfrutamos mucho y quedamos muy agradecidos por todo. En el itinerario de viaje creo que pudo ser mejor que nuestro vuelo hubiera sido Santiago-Puerto Natales-Santiago, pues el llegar a Punta Arenas creo que no tenía sentido, y los traslados en bus se hicieron cansados y requirió al menos una noche de hotel extra. Después nos enteramos que en Puerto Natales sí había aeropuerto, así que podíamos haber llegado ahí directamente.

Everything was very well organized and better than expected. The only improvements and recommendations are for the trip to and from Argentina. You need to advise US, Australian, and Canadians that they need the immigration papers and payment before entering Argentina. Also you should explain the 10 hour bus trip to visitors that there are NO food stops on the ride and NO food can be brought back to Chile. The last issue was at the Hostel Pehoe. We were in a very remote location without transportation to anywhere for treking or other activities. We asked the Hotel manager for a ride down the street (4 KM) but he said that was "impossible". We ended up walking and hiking for 8 hours that day and had a great day! The park is beautiful but the travelors need to have options for their activities on the "day off".
