Very professional and kind fishermen/guides and nice trout and beautiful surroundings. Bbq was very good and good wine.
Thank you Anju. It's a special day when you catch wild trout from an Andes stream. Happy travels!
This was 100% worth the price and full day experience. Daniel our guide was a great fly fishing expert and really gave us individual attention to teach us the skills needed to fish. The river we fished on was indeed private, quiet and serene. It does take you outside the city but its a beautiful drive seeing the Andes. The barbeque lunch is more of an awesome 3 course meal with wine! Way more food and better than I would have expected. Theres a charming home on site with a kitchen, dining room and covered outdoor fire pit. The dining area we ate in was rustic and adorable. Would highly recommend this tour!
Thank you Lauren. Our fishing trip is one of a kind in Mendoza. Have a safe trip home.
Everything about this experience was fantastic. It was very easy to book and great communication with the office staff. My husband is an avid fisher but I’m not. Pablo was very patient showing me how to fish. Both Pablo and Sergio were fantastic guides. This trip is perfect for all skill levels. The ranch is beautiful and quiet, away from all the tourists. Lunch was delicious. One of the favorite days on our trip, we would highly recommend if you want an outdoor adventure.
This was one of the most amazing excursions we have ever done. It is off the beaten path and legitimately up in the mountains. Our guide Pablo was amazing, along with his friend Agustina. They were both extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The property is beyond beautiful. Honestly the drive there was worth doing it. We will never forget it. If you are looking for something that is not a tourist trap and a true adventure book this. The hiking was not difficult, but wear a hat and sunscreen.
Thank you Kayla. I'm glad you had such a good time. La Carrera is somewhere special, a green microclimate in the high mountains. Not many people visit there but thats the great thing about fishing, it gets you out and away!
We very much enjoyed our tour. Marco was a wonderful guide and companion for the day, and the lunch and setting were both terrific!
Thank you Michael. Happy fishing!
We had an incredible day flyfishing in the Andes mountains. Going up the mountains on the way to Valley De Uco we enjoyed the view of Embalse Potrerillos and the majestic view of the Andes. After arriving to La Quebrada de El Condor we got prepared for a very special day of fishing. Our tour guides Daniel and Agustin were very helpful, kind and accommodating. My husband and I were guided by Agustin, who shared with us his wonderful skills and was incredibly helpful. We enjoyed a very special day in a beautiful place, listening to the sound of the mountain stream, seeing condors and catching trout. An amazing experience. At the end of the adventure, we were treated to a delicious lunch prepared by a great chef, Hugo. Thank you for making this tour possible and thank you to Agustin and all the team for all you do to make it so special. We highly recommend this tour.
Thank you Maria. You describe this excursion perfectly.
This was the first time my boyfriend and I had been fly fishing and our guide Pablo made it a wonderful experience. Literally every detail was perfect. From communication and payment options, prompt pickup and drop off, excellent English translation, fun fishing experience with great instruction to ending the day with a delicious meal in the mountains. If you’re thinking about it, do it! Highlight of our trip.
Thank you Trish. I'm glad it went so well.
Marco was a wonderful teacher! He made the whole experience fun and engaging. I would definitely recommend him for your next fishing adventure!
Thank you Veronica!
We had such an amazing time. Pablo was so kind and helpful. We truly enjoyed ourselves and could not have asked for a better experience. I’m so glad we decided to book with your company. Everything was absolutely perfect and I’d highly recommend to any visiting Mendoza.
Thank you!
We were novices and our guides Pablo and Augustin were extremely patient, and really wanted us to have a great experience and catch fish. We saw amazing scenery, and saw some guanacos (mini llama type animals). Note that the lunch was more of a charcuterie board - not an asado lunch, but it was delicious
Thank you AJ. Im glad you enjoyed the day. Yes, sometimes we do the lunch higher up by the river, where a barbecue is not so practical. It all depends on the day and where the best fishing is.
