Today started with our group meeting for breakfast. The staff at Refugio Los Cuernos packed our lunches on bread that was made fresh. Our second day of trekking day was about to begin. We left around 8 am and we arrived at the Italian Campsite before noon. From here, part of the group took the trail through the French Valley and other part of the group continued the Mountain Lodge Paine Grande. The air was crisp and cool. The surroundings were amazing. We passed streams, waterfalls, and glaciers just to name a few. Upon arriving at the lodge we warmed ourselves near the wood burning stoves and waited for dinner. The lodge is located on Lake Pehoe, surrounded by a mountain range. The girls in our group shared a dorm room for six; three sets of bunk beds. Sleeping bags were provided to us from our guide. The electricity went off at about 3am and did not come back on until after 7am.
Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
