I'm 66 years old and recently retired. My husband and I are well traveled and I usually plan our trips. There were so many moving parts to visiting Patagonia that I searched for help with the plans. I was lucky enough to stumble upon Dittmar/KimKim and even luckier to work with Erin. Erin was very help from the moment I reached out and I was happy to know that she lived in Chile!! Erin and I had many conversations regarding what we wanted and she always came back with suggestions or follow-ups. I told her that I was very picky about hotels and she stayed with me and found places I liked. As far as the trip is concerned, everything we agreed on came off without a hitch. I found our guides and drivers to be very friendly, helpful and cared that we were having a good time. I am so happy that I found Dittmar/KimKim and I will use them in the future.

Day Trip to a Patagonian Estancia

The day trip to the Patagonian Estancia was a standout experience. Horseback riding on the ranch followed by a wonderful lunch was beautiful and perfectly done. Everything met our expectations and style of travel. It was just perfection and beautiful.

The Torres del Paine full day private tour was good despite the rainy weather. Our guide was very nice, helpful, and answered many of our questions. Though we only stayed at the hotel for one night, it was nice and added to the experience.

Karen! You were such an incredible help in getting the nail on the head for this trip. I really appreciate how clear you were with what kind of accommodations you love, and helping me to understand that that was a priority. We loved working with you on making this happen, and having you and Scott here with us in Patagonia, come back anytime :)
