Excelente el medio de transporte, el guía Federico carismático y un libro abierto atentos a todos los detalles, y el chófer Roberto en horario y conductor responsable.
Muy linda experiencia con un grupo no tan grande de pasajeros lo cual lo hace mejor, con un trecking no tan exigido que lo hace apto para mas público, desayunando en el dique de Potrerillos y almorzamos al pie del Aconcagua, ambos tipo campamento.
Puntuales y estuvieron en todos los detalles desde principio a fin.
Lo recibí ampliamente!
