Mountain day - We did the albino eye glacier hike, which exceeded all our expectations. It’s a hard road as they indicate but both guides, Emi and Lucho, were watching every step to make everything easier and feel completely safe. The different landscapes seen along the way are wonderful, capped by the arrival meters from the glacier wall, walking along the frozen lagoon.

Albino Eye… challenging but rewarding - Emi is an excellent guide, always aware of how the road was going, and keeping an appropriate pace for the group. In my case, albino eye trekking was done. I recommend it 100%

Beautiful experience - Very good, you pass through the Esmeralda lagoon and continue the ascent. You have to have a little preparation physical. The landscapes are beautiful and the views are impressive. Highly recommended. From the base it is 3.5 hours at a bearable pace.

Terrible communication - This excursion was the first one I booked several months ago. I was so looking forward to it. We were on a one month trip and this was the day I was looking forward to to the most. At the last minute the night before the excursion, they notified me it was 12 hours, which I could not do because I was coming from a cruise ship, which they knew well in advance. They recommended we meet at 7 AM instead of 7:30 AM and we obliged. We ended up waiting for the guide) until after 7:30 AM. Only to realize that we still didn’t have enough time to complete the glacier hike. We asked if there was another hike to do that would be shorter and he suggested one I said OK let’s do that. he said we couldn’t because there were other people booked on this tour. I said, but we paid for a private tour and we knew about all of this well in advance. So no, I do not recommend this company or this excursion. And on the listing it shows that the excursion is 7 to 8 hours not what they told me at the last minute to be 12 hours. Extremely disappointed as I had planned this one so far in advance, and was supposed to be the highlight of my trip.
