Thank you for arranging this wonderful tour of southern Chile. I am amazed that all our transfers, air flights and all tours were spot on, not one delay or glitch. Considering how many connections were required, everything worked out perfectly. All tickets for flights and buses were delivered the night before so no stress. All transfers drivers were very attentive and helpful. We were able to arrange extra trips with the drivers to drive us to restaurants and wine stores. All tour guides were exceptional and very knowledgeable. One last thing the weather was perfect for us two senior Canadians, rain was predicted for the 6 days in the Southern part of the trip and it never happened. Highly recommended for a people who want to see beautiful cities and glaciers and mountains in South America. Thanks to all.Show more

We had a great trip, everything was well coordinated by Wanderful holidays. They were in contact everyday to ensure everything was fine. We had a minor hiccup with one hotel but Wanderful sorted this very quickly. Very quick to respond to any questions. The tour was a mix of private guides for just 2 people and some group tours but all worked out well. Special mention to our private guide Jim. At Iguaçu falls. Went above and beyond and definitely made our visit to the falls one of our highlights. All our accommodation and transfers were wonderful. Would use Wanderful holidays again.Show more

We went on the 18 day Glaciers We went on the 18 day Glaciers, Water Falls & World Wonders tour. With over 18,000 miles flown from our home in the Pacific Northwest and 2 bus trips, we often times didn’t know if we were coming or going. Wanderful Holidays took care of all the details with our airline boarding passes, bus tickets, pickups to and from airports and hotels and our accommodations. On our one small snafu, I texted Rose Amanda and she got back to me within 20 seconds and the problem was fixed within 20 minutes. The food was excellent, the hotels great and it was the perfect combination of natural wonders and beautiful cosmopolitan cities, especially Rio and Copacabana Beach. We would recommend Wanderful Holidays to anyone looking for a fun, carefree and exciting vacation. Thank you Wanderful! Sean HanlonShow more
