B.A - Congress House • None of the 3 ATM at the BA airport working. Exchanged some dollars for pesos at an outraged rate of 3.02, while the rate in town was 3.44-3.50 pesos to the dollar. Very bad first impression.
• Checked in at the club level of the Marriott located by Plaza San Martin – great location to access the underground and walking distance from city center, however, small non-view very disappointing room.
• Strolled along Florida St. (a pedestrian St.) which is mentioned in all tour books as a major shopping avenue. The expected wide and fancy street turned to be not so wide, not so fancy and definitely very crowded. A lot of pedestrians, vendors selling stuff in the middle of the street, and some amateur performers playing and dancing for tips.
• Continued to Café Tortoni, a tourist must. Not our cup of tea (no pun intended), but the coffee, milkshake and cake were very good.
• Dinner at a restaurant along the promenade of Puerto Madero. The cold cuts & Cheeses plate and the local beer were, surprisingly, very good.
We received an immediate response from Kassandra who reserved our cruise as soon as she got a confirmation from us. Maria and Jess also were in touch right away.

Mary was super helpful and patient. Answered every question and with candor (answers of “Everything’s equally great” aren’t helpful! 😎).

The trip planner I worked with, Jane, was excellent. She had travelled to Antarctica twice and was the voice of experience as she explained travel options to me. I've travelled internationally for many years for many years for business and pleasure including a number of adventure trips. It is a delight to work with such an experienced planner. I've used Adventure Life for three trips, Costa Rica, Galapagos and upcoming, Antarctica. I highly recommend them.

Clara was great to work with. She presented lots of options and always responded promptly. And she found excellent options within our price range.
