The most amazing trip to the Andes. Our guide took us to a remote part where we saw many many condors. We hiked the grassland to admire the flower and fauna. A fox even spied us. And a roaming horse befriended us.we then sat down with wine and a bountiful tray of cheese et al. Best was the 360 view of the Andes all by ourselves!!. No one. Just us and the view. Ps our guide was amazing...but i forgot his name

We wanted to get out of Santiago to go into the Andes, but didn’t have a lot of time. Our guide Nick, took us to 3000 meters where we saw condors and then had an absolute blast drinking wine and eating cheese and crackers, looking out over the mountains. Nick was the best tour guide, who knows perfect English and haves Ua insights into so many things. I really recommend this tour!!
