We’re sorry to hear that this trip didn’t align with your previous experiences travelling with us, and that it felt inconsistent with what you’ve come to expect. We understand you found the transport and accommodation, particularly the overnight bus journey, had a significant impact on your overall experience. Our Basix style trips are designed as a more budget conscious way to travel, using local services and simple accommodation, and we aim to clearly outline these inclusions within the trip information. As these services are locally operated, standards and comfort levels can vary between destinations. That said, we recognise that this fell short of your expectations on this occasion. We also appreciate your feedback around how elements of the trip are described, as clear and accurate expectations are important to us. We can see that you were in touch with our Customer Care team during your travels, and that steps were taken at the time to address some of your concerns, though we’re sorry to hear that these measures did not improve your experience. We’re continually looking for ways to improve, and your feedback forms an important part of that, so we’d welcome you to get back in touch with our Customer Care team so they can review this further with you.Show more

Asked on December 24th, 2025Is it possible to do the reverse-end in Buenos Aires?
Intrepid TravelOperator•Written December 2025Unfortunately, all of our trips come with a fixed itinerary, so we are unable to make changes such as a reverse-end in Buenos Aires. If you would like to follow this particular itinerary, it will need to be done as shown on our website.

Asked on December 22nd, 2025Do you have travel agents in the UK that I could book this with as I want them to sort my flights etc.
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written December 2025
TourRadar specialises in helping you book the best-organised adventures from around the world, these often don't include international airfare, as travellers can join any of the trips from many different countries. We have a helpful place to search flight prices and book your own flights. While we are adventure booking experts, we can't advise on specific airfares, and the traveller is responsible for booking their own flights for the start and end of the trip.
