We have nothing but praise and thanks to Camila and the onsite travel agencies. We had a few glitches along the way but overall it was a wonderful trip. We are grateful for Camila's flexibility and the ability to craft a trip that checked all of our boxes. In reviewing all of the activities that were planned, we would offer the following reviews.
The Jewish tour was frankly disappointing. The guide we had was apparently a replacement and we saw very little during our excursion. The highlight was going to the famous bookstore, which really has nothing to do with Jewish heritage. In all honesty, we received feedback from other travelers who took a similar tour and were equally disappointed, so perhaps overall the Jewish tour needs to be revised in some way.
We loved the tango dinner. We enjoyed our time at El Fogon. Our visit to Mendoza was amazing and the highlight-was lunch at Catena which was off the chart! The wineries that were selected were all terrific and we loved where we stayed at Casa Glebinas. We really loved the guides that we had in Mendoza. One comment that is important to mention, we really should have been told that nothing is open on Sundays in Mendoza so we really should have planned better around that information.
All of our in country flights were fine. We did have a bit of anxiety on the return from Puerto Madryn as our connecting flight was shortly after our arrival.
We loved our time in Puerto Madryn. One comment to share is that the local guides would inform us of a pick up time and then we would be waiting up to an hour for them to arrive, typically a result of their needing to pick up other guests. We would have appreciated a heads-up. The penquin trip and swimming with Sea Lion experiences were awesome.
Upon our return to Buenos Aires-the tour company was wonderful. Cecilia was a wonderful guide/host. The city tour was great-which included leather shopping. The trip down the Tiger was quite nice as well. Overall we were extremely happy with all of the plans and our time in the country. Thank you again!
