Ana is wonderful! Kind, understanding, responsive, and always on top of things! I don’t think we would be able to go to Argentina this year without Ana’s involvement! At the time when I didn’t have any chance of planning this trip your help was invaluable 🙏. I told all my friends about you. Thank you so much!

Hotel Reviews
O2 Hotel Buenos Aires
Buenos Aires

Basic hotel. Good location. The reason I gave 2 stars is the size of their beds. They are tiny! If the two single beds are together it’s an American queen size bed, not king. And if they are separate they are much more narrower than a regular single bed. On top of that, the pillows are very hard and puffy. And the fitted sheet for a single bed is larger than a bed. So basically you sleep very uncomfortable on the bare mattress all night (because the sheet will roll) and be tired with a neck pain in the morning. Unless you are small person and the queen size bed is ok for two people.

Cleanliness is ok, but please change the mattresses, sheets, pillow, and buy new towels if you want your guest to be comfortable
Nido del Condor Hotel & Spa
San Carlos de Bariloche

Very nice hotel, about 15 min from the town center, 20 min from the port, and like 30 min from the airport. Rooms are very nice with a view of a beautiful lake! Comfortable beds! Large jacuzzi. Bath robes in the room. Fireplace. Restaurant on premises. Breakfast is quite good, eggs are excellent! Staff is very kind and attentive 🙏. Has a spa facility - with a pool, dry and wet saunas, and couple lounges. My only advice to the hotel management is to make sure saunas are working as it should. We stayed 5 nights and it was a pleasure. Thank you!

These are very comfy and warm, wooden cottages with amazing view.

My husband got sick one day and I had to bring him breakfast, everyone was helping to get everything together to pack it. 🌹 They also helped me with reservations to restaurants and one special fishing trip.

Activity Reviews
Tango Show & Dinner at La Ventana
Tango Show & Dinner at La Ventana
Buenos Aires

We had a quick group tango lesson (by the same guy and a girl who danced in the show later), dinner, and a show. Everything was great! The lesson was fun. Food and wine were excellent. And the show was fantastic! The level of professionalism is top notch (very different from the dancers you see in La Boca restaurants or dancing on the streets). We really loved this night!

It was a very good “introduction to the city” tour, kind of a kaleidoscope of little bits of every borrow. Good for people who don’t have much time in Buenos Aires. Otherwise I would skip it and just tour every neighborhood separately.

I only liked this tour because our guide was very good. Otherwise I would prefer to take a public bus into Colonia, and not waste time stopping at the chocolate factory.

This was a very cute activity. There weren’t too many penguins yet, but a good amount still. Was fun to see them up close.

Quality of Experience
Just the intimacy of the island and penguins near by was very nice

expensive activity (due to price hike this year) but still so worth it! My favorite activity of the trip. The beauty, the size, the air, the feeling of being on top of the ice doesn’t translate well into pictures unfortunately.
