La nostra agenzia aveva prenotato la navigazione con sistemazione sala VIP quindi il trattamento è stato perfetto. Al rifugio mangiato bene con buon servizio. Certo il ghiacciaio Upsala si vede passando ma lo Spegazzini si gode benissimo e costeggiare le Ande cilene è stato molto bello

No lo recomiendo. El glaciar Upsala apenaa se ve de lejos. El spegazzini si se ve y es impresionante pero es demasiado e incómodo viaje hasta llegar ahí. El barco lleno de gente, lo llenan a tope, los asientos son de a 4 que vas apretado, asientos incómodos. Si salis a proa, muy difícil sacar 1 foto de que están los fotógrafos vendiendo el servicio de ellos, la comida en el refugio cara y la atención pésima. la vista de los glaciares es linda, pero la experiencia es mala. No volvería ni lo recomiendo, uno de los paseos más caros y con un servicio pésimo.
Además se rompió 1 motor, quedamos varados 1 hora en medio de la nada y llegamos al refugio 1.30hs mas tarde, sin pedido de Disculpas, sin un vaso de agua de atención. Aunque si seguian vendiendo el servicio de fotografía insistentemente
