Testimonials

“The entire itinerary worked out extremely well. We couldn't be more pleased. Both the wine country in Chile and our stay in Puerto Varas were wonderful. Mendoza and the Uco Valley were also terrific. Thank you and great job! ”

—Paul Markovich (Customized Itinerary)

“Our experience in Patagonia was well beyond our expectations. We had an absolutely great time from beginning to end. The scenery was spectacular, Oscar and his people were wonderful, we were challenged and comfortable at the same time, even the weather was perfect. Thanks to you and everyone at Southwind. Our memories of Patagonia will stay with us always.”

—Holly & Mike Sacks (Thousand Oaks, CA)

“We had a great trip. We especially liked our guide, Ronny. He was very easy going, on the ball and so knowledgeable – around everything from Inca and Spanish history, geology, politics and economics. He took some great photos of us too! He also suggested great restaurants in Cuzco. All of the connections went very smoothly and the staff who met us at the airports were great as well. The hotels were lovely and the service was always excellent.”

—Risa Shames (Newton, Massachusetts)

“The trip went beyond my expectations. I didn't expect to be swimming with giant sea turtles, sea lions, penguins and sharks. It was an incredible experience to say the least.”

—Al McNay (Westland, MI)

“Tom arranged our trip and was excellent in every way. He created an outstanding vacation/adventure for us. The itinerary was outstanding. We liked the contrast of the Old City/Modern City of Panama City, the Panama Canal experiences, the Island experience, the Rain Forest nature hikes, and the Boquete region activities. It was a wonderful trip.”

—Regina Einstein (Mount Kisco, NY) – Customized program

“We enjoyed the entire trip! Highlights for us include seeing all of the Inca ruins at Pisac, Ollantaytambo, Sacsayhuaman, and especially Machu Picchu. The Sacred Valley was so magnificent that even the train ride to Aguas Calientes was fun (we spent most of the time staring out of the window in awe). We also really enjoyed hanging out with the camelids, seeing the Maras salt mines, and visiting the weaving cooperative in Chinchero.”

—Molly Koren (Denver, CO) - Private Family Adventure

“Your trip was fabulous. Exactly what we expected and more.”

—Ed Morgan (Honolulu, HI)

“The hiking in Torres del Paine was amazing. The terrain, animals and mountains look very different than the Rocky Mountains. We loved seeing the different areas and hiking in all of them to fully experience the park. Our guide Mauricio was wonderful. He is always very positive and encouraged us to get the full experience of Patagonia.”

—Jill Montera (Broomfield, CO)

“The week in the Galápagos aboard La Pinta proved to be the single most satisfying travel experience we've ever had. We have nothing but praise for the boat's facilities, its staff, its naturalists. Just to make everything that much better, the 31 passengers were as compatible a group as I've traveled with. I think all of us felt the same. Of course, the Galápagos would be remarkable in almost any situation, but I can't envision a better way to visit than the way we did.”

—R. Frost (Plattsburgh, NY)

“The Galapagos was an outstanding experience.”

—Dennis George (Northbrook, IL)
