Very fun experience! Beautiful sites! The guide Fede was so funny and made the tour really enjoyable!!!
Daniella, we are so happy that you had a great experience with our guide! We will be sure to share your kind words with Fede and we sincerely appreciate you offering to continue recommending our service to your network of friends and family. Argentina has so much to offer!!! Thank you for writing your review! Luna from Say Hueque
I did not know we would be in a convoy with a lot of other people. However our guide was not very helpful so I could at least ask the other guides questions and they were more responsive. The explanation on the vehicle was inaudible and it was very hot inside with no air circulation. The scenery was beautiful and the paddle on the lake was very nice.
Had a great time on this tour! Saw all the awesome spots. Freddy was great as well. I'll definitely take more tour with this company in future
Dear ch_ahs84, Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review, we love hearing our travelers' feedback about their adventures! We'll let Freddy know that you enjoyed working with him and we are happy to hear that your expectations were met. We take pride in organizing all the little details so that you can feel relaxed and comfortable, and we are glad that you noticed. We look forward to seeing you back down here in the future for more exploration! Best regards, Cathie
A must in the ushuaia visit package. Wonderful scenery of both lakes (Lago Escondido and Lago Fagnano). Knowledgeable and experienced Driver-Guide.
Thanks for the review saadibou! I'm so glad to hear that you had a blast on the Ushuaia 4x4 tour! We would agree that it is a MUST for anyone who visits Ushuaia and is looking for a hands-on adventure. I will pass on the compliments to our local tour provider who was your driver and guide :) We hope to see you again soon! Best, Cathie
