Exceeded all expectations!
Patagonia

Jan 15 - Jan 24, 2023
We planned this trip for our honeymoon and it exceeded all of our expectations! From the beginning, Erin was super responsive and helpful to assist us in designing and tailoring our trip wishlist to include every hike and activity we asked for, affirming all the highlights we wanted to see and do. Even when an activity was cancelled due to reasons beyond their control she helped us move stuff around so we could still have a similar activity/experience included and it ended up being our favorite excursion (mini trekking on Perito Moreno)! Every guide we had was super nice and helpful and all activities were organized very well. When we met with the Dittmar associate (Nara) upon arrival we were very impressed, everything was laid out for us (vouchers, etc.) and we felt very prepared for our itinerary; and then mostly everything went as outlined and so smoothly which definitely decreased our travel/logistics stress. It was also helpful to be able to contact her while we were there. All the hotels were super nice as well, even ones that apparently were second choices were just lovely! Patagonia is a large area and we realized it would be really overwhelming to plan on our own but they did a great job honing in on our interests and creating truly the trip of a lifetime for us. Aside from staying in Patagonia longer we wouldn’t have changed a thing!
Hotel Reviews
Clean, front desk very helpful, nice views.
We got a superior room and let me tell you, the view was incredible!! The bar and restaurant also had amazing views. Front desk was super helpful as well. Loved this hotel
We always camp with our own gear but didn’t have a choice for our trip; was pleasantly surprised at the quality and cleanliness of the tent and sleeping bags. Cafe food was also really good!
This place was such a gem! Beautiful setting, nice clean large rooms, lovely restaurant as well.
We loved this place! really loved and took advantage of the jetted bath especially after long hikes. Bed/pillows were so comfy! Views of the mountains a plus. Staff friendly and helpful, when we ate at the restaurant they had told them it was our honeymoon and they sent us dessert, so thoughtful and sweet.
Activity Reviews
Our favorite activity! The guides were awesome and it was just so cool, not every day you get to literally climb a glacier. One of the most awesome things we’ve done in our life!
In general we felt overwhelmed by this experience. Between the amazing views, lunch on a glacier lake in the middle of a beautiful landscape and the excitement of river crossing on the horse we couldn’t have been more pleased with everything. The guide was exceptional and so knowledgeable of the area and rich history, not to mention a great cook!
This experience exceeded expectations. Our guide was so knowledgeable on the area and asked us for our inputs on things we wanted to see in order to tailor things. We saw tons of wild life, and breathtaking landscapes.
Such a cool experience to be that close to a glacier and amongst the icebergs floating in the water. The crew was exceptional of providing all sorts of information. The hauling in of a iceberg to make cocktails with the ice was so neat!
This was such an amazing hike. The hike offered nonstop views and thanks to our guide we stopped at all the best viewing spots along the way. The guide was also extremely prepared and knowledgeable about the geological history, wildlife floral/fauna. The guide was happy to capture all the moments for us on camera too! This is a long hike so be prepared.
Everything was clear! Felt very prepared with our trip outlined and all docs organized for us.
With our hiking abilities we really didn’t need a guide for this hike but the guide was super nice and helpful explaining the geography and pointing out animals etc, which was a really great addition to the hike.
Stacy, your photos are incredible!!! Thank you for sharing! I particularly love the one of the sunset skyline of the Fitz Roy mountain range, what a gem.
Planning this trip with you was great, the two of you provided the perfect amount of details mixed with the perfect amount of trust to make this honeymoon a success. Thank you for being flexible in light of unavoidable changes and really for trusting us to make this experience happen for you.
Wishing you two a lifetime of happiness and hopefully more trips like this together :)
