    We had an amazing time in Chile. Patagonia, the people, abundant wildlife, weather, food, etc were all wonderful. We would definitely go with Aborigen Tours & Patagonia Planet again. Many thanks to Fernando, Thelma, Nadia, guides Paula & Angie, driver Carlos, and other transfer drivers. It is a trek to get to many of the places, but well worth the effort in this beautiful country.
