In late October 2025, our Head of Operations, Eve, set off to celebrate her 40th birthday (a happy mix of work and pleasure) in the wilds of Patagonia<\/a>, joined by the \u201cfittest and most adventure-seeking travel partner you could ask for\u201d \u2013 her dad!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Trip<\/a>
Wander below the staggering Fitz Roy mountain<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfter flying halfway across the world, we got our breath back in Buenos Aires<\/a>, before heading down to our first stop: El Chalten<\/a>, the hiking mecca of Argentine Patagonia<\/a>. On our very first morning, we conquered the Laguna de los Tres hike, a 22-kilometre, 9-hour round trip that included 1,000 metres of elevation gain. It was a rare wind-free, blue-sky day, which we enjoyed to the fullest, navigating forests, rivers and steep, zig-zagging trails to get above the snowline.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe view of glimmering Fitz Roy mountain and its surrounding glaciers was breathtaking (and certainly worth the 2 days it had taken to get there from Cape Town<\/a>). Our fabulous guide, Julie, really brought the place to life with her knowledge of the history, flora and geological formations. Honestly, to do this trail without an expert local guide would be doing it a total disservice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>

\u201cNext up was the bustling little town of El Calafate<\/a>, just the place to be if you want to get up, close and personal with a roaring glacier. We met our guide early in the morning to get suited and booted before hopping into a kayak and paddling towards the Perito Moreno Glacier. To be in such proximity to this force of nature, which is close to 20,000 years old, was awe inspiring to say the least.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Trip<\/a>
On the water beside the formidable Perito Moreno Glacier<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe glacier is one of the most dynamic in Patagonia<\/a> due to its regular calving and we were gobsmacked to witness this dramatic scene as huge chunks of ice splashed into the water just a few hundred metres from where we were kayaking. We spent the afternoon exploring the boardwalks of Los Glaciares National Park, really getting a look at Perito Moreno from every angle.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>

\u201cWe journeyed on, this time crossing into Chilean Patagonia<\/a> and making a beeline for Torres del Paine National Park<\/a>. We spent nearly a week in 3 different areas of the park, so we could really explore to the fullest, and every time we gazed upon the same mountain range, the view looked different in some way. You could never get bored here!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur first day was spent on an endlessly scenic drive through the park, welcomed by local guanaco (a member of the llama and alpaca family). Our first home-away-from-home was Kau Rio Serrano, where we enjoyed an evening by the fire, sipping on calafate sours \u2013 a local re-imagining of the pisco sour, and staring at those mountains.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
The luxury yurt at Patagonia Camp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur base for tackling the iconic Grey Trek was Patagonia Camp<\/a>, which is truly one for the books with luxury yurts, delicious cocktails and the best food of the trip. Unfortunately, the weather wasn\u2019t on our side and the journey to the Grey Glacier was extremely windy. With hail being blown into our faces at 70kmh, let\u2019s just say it was an experience and leave it at that! A word of advice: you really do experience all seasons in one here, so come prepared to change plans at the last minute and give yourself enough days to move activities around to match the weather.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Trip<\/a>
Riding horseback next to a local Gaucho <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe final stop was Estancia Cerro Guido<\/a>, which offers an entirely unique experience. A traditional working farm, guests are able to get involved in the daily running of things \u2013 and we enjoyed a veggie garden tour and riding out with a real-life Gaucho. Hearing all his stories was enlightening \u2013 if ever there were a job purely driven by passion and tradition, the life of a Gaucho is it! We also went on scenic hikes and e-biked through the valleys in the shadow of Torres del Paine<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe major reason for visiting Estancia Cerro Guido<\/a> is to track the rare and elusive puma, something that had been on my bucket list for a very long time. This estancia is known as one of the best places to track and find puma in South America<\/a>, thanks to the incredible conservation work they have been doing to ensure the species and land they walk upon is protected for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe spent a wonderful morning with the trackers and, after several hours, we were lucky enough to find a large male puma. We kept our distance and watched as he moved around his territory completely unaffected by our presence. After 40 minutes we said our goodbyes and left him to continue his hunt for something to eat. I know so many people that have come in search of a puma and not been so fortunate, so I fully appreciate what a privilege this was.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI went out with the trackers again in the afternoon and spent over 5 hours checking camera traps and searching for tracks. This time, luck wasn\u2019t on our side but it only made the events of that morning all the more special. After watching the sunset, we headed back to the lodge where I slipped into a comfy bed and readied myself for the long journey home after the most remarkable trip. How lucky am I to call this work and that I got to share it all with my Dad!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
