Excellent trip with Seb Bueno as our main guide and Sophia and Camilo as extra guides. We had a fantastic small group with people of different ages and Seb was able to customise the tour accordingly. He was funny, friendly, very experienced and knowledgeable. We had such a great time enjoying the wonderful scenery of Torres del Paine but the absolute best bit was that we spotted a puma!! Highly recommend this tour!

I had to cancel the W trek due to injury of my hiking partner so I booked this one day hike. It was excellent! I saw some really beautiful areas and the guide, Francisco, was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. There were 2 guides for 9 people so it's possible to walk at your own pace, for example up the steep hill (which you can miss if not very fit, and just relax beside the beautiful lake). It was a great day!

The excursion was excellent!! I visited a section of the Torres del Paine, with beautiful views. The very attentive guides Francisco and Claudia explained to us in detail about the culture, flora and fauna of the places we visited. At the end, from afar, we saw the sleeping Puma. 100% recommended.
