The shuttle left Eco Camp at 6am. It was still dark and everyone was asleep. To our amazement, we saw a few sets of eyes glowing in the distance. Our driver told us they were pumas. In fact it was, three pumas to be exact, chasing a rabbit. The rabbit took cover under the van we were in. The chase continued into the fields and we were back on the road again. We were driven to a bus stop for the drive to El Calafate. After checking in, we boarded the bus and settled in for a long ride. We had to exit and go through a immigration at the Chile and Argentina boarder. We boarded the bus again and continued to El Calafate. I wish we had more time to spend in El Calafate. Unfortunately, our flight home leaves in the morning. For dinner, we met with a travel companion from Eco Camp to enjoy an authentic open pit barbeque, or Argentinean Asado. Dinner included some wine...of course. Our time in Patagonia is coming to an end. The time I spent here will always be in my heart and soul. My sister and I went to the end of the world together.
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.
