Fun day out - Great day trip if you’re looking for something different
Pick up went well friendly staff great information about the area and on the walking path you can get a little damp but not too bad
Can get a little breezy
Highly recommend

Relaxing, educational and great way to see patagonian landscape from a different side rather than mountains and glaciars - Great experience, it was just my friend and me and the guide which made it really relaxing. Guide knew a lot of info as about environment, plants, history in the region and so on.. kayaking is quite simple and easy but we made 2 stops on the way for a hike which stretched the day. Recommend doing it when its sunny ofcourse!
Only comment is its quite expensive but hey thats Argentina for you these days.

Amazing experience, must do in El Calafate! - Great experience in all of its parts! Besides the kayak experience which is by itself worth the cost, the guides are super prepared with all sorts of facts and information about the area’s flora, fauna, history and tradition. The hike in between is an open air museum visit and has been such a pleasant surprise. The staff is amazing and super friendly, can definitely recommend! Also pick up and drop off service at your place/hostel works smoothly. Thanks Eduardo, Sebastian y Martin!

Amazing Kayaking and Hiking Experience - Amazing experience with awesome guides! Would highly recommend.
The tour consists of kayaking down the La Leona River, then hiking in the Petrified forest where you see dinosaur fossils, and then you continue to kayak after the short hike. The guides couldn't have been nicer. We go treated to Mate Tea and Alfajores after the hike. Definitely a worthy experience!

Definitely worth it! - This is a brilliant day, certainly one of the highlights of our Patagonia trip!
Eduardo and his team are all very knowledgeable and helpful. The kayaking on a milky blue river was amazing. (They have all the kit you need). Eduardo is clearly passionate about the geology of the area and was brilliant with explanations of different features along the trek, particularly petrified trees and dinosaur fossils!
The snacks and cold beer were a lovely touch, and also the photos.
Don't hesitate, book it!

AVOID avoid - No bathroom stops, before/during/after your. You pee in nature. Very unsafe hike on private property. The lowlight of my pantagonia travels.
