As I write this, I'm sipping on a glass of Argentinean Malbec. Ian and I are quasi wine aficionados. We tend not to drink expensive wines, but we do know our varietals. It seemed only natural that we spend our last night in Chile in a winery. Matetic was the perfect ending to our trip. Located just over an hour from the airport in a very quiet valley far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, we awoke to the sound of birdsong in the immaculate gardens outside our room.
The Casona at Matetic is located about 12 km from the winery operations. After breakfast to order, we rode horses from the hacienda to the winery for a late morning tasting. Lunch was perfectly plated and presented, highlighted by an excellent bottle of Sauvignon Blanc. My only regret was not spending another night or two here. What a lovely ending to the perfect trip!
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.
