Taste of Argentina Tour + El Calafate - During the week we spent together Guadalupe was the quintessential tour guide, showing me the lovely towns of Salta, Cachi and Cafayate. She was a wealth of information, well-read, and tons of fun. Amazingly, it had turned out to be a private tour because no one else had signed up and to top it off, our personable and charming driver, Kiko, turned out to be a real gem.

I’ve spent years pouring through my share of Outside Magazines and National Geographics; watched hours of Discovery Channel Programs and marveled at the beauty of nature; heard the tales of many of my well-travelled friends as they detailed their harrowing and exciting adventures. But with all of this, at 30 years old, I had never been outside of the United States. Yes, you heard that right. While I would have given my left arm to be able to say I was an adventurer, the most I had ventured from home was across the U.S. At least that was the case a year ago, when (for my 30th birthday) my boyfriend Jay surprised me with the trip of a lifetime – halfway around the world in South America. He had heard about Adventure Life through a few friends (and a few reads of Outside Magazine himself) and booked the trip without my knowing. Flash forward to March 2010 when, after months of planning, Jay and I board a flight bound for Santiago with an itinerary set to take us to the end of the world and back – and offer us experiences we wouldn’t soon forget. I had no idea what was in store but was soon to find out…

Our Awesome Argentina trip (Buenos Aires to Ushuaia to El Calafate) was truly awesome. World class capital, amazing scenery & penguins at the end of the world, a once in a lifetime glacier walk. Great guides, interesting people, wonderful food.

It is February school vacation week, and most of our friends have been indulging in pedicures and manicures for trips to the Caribbean and Florida. Though we are not glamorous, we are happy, happy, happy because we are going to tour Patagonia today.

Patagonia Trip: Truly the trip of a lifetime - rugged mountain ranges, beautiful river valleys, impressive glacial basins, and charming mountain towns - Patagonia is my kind of place!

South America Trip: We spent about a week in Buenos Aires, touring the barrios and sights. We then embarked on the Patagonia Panorama 14d Adventure and finished it off with a couple of days in Santiago Chile.

This was our first trip with Adventure Life. I think it won’t be the last! We wanted to go to Cape Horn, to visit the famous Torres del Paine park of Patagonia, and the Argentine glaciers. Adventure Life let us do it all in 2 weeks.

Travel on the Akademik Shokalsky through the Drake Passage to the Antarctic Peninsula for a lifetime experience of an adventure that is out of this world
