El Calafate: Gletscherzauber ganz ohne Stress

J’ai booké l’excursion à El Calafate avec Best South America Tours et c’était un kiff total. Ramassage à l’heure, guide super sympa, infos claires, et des pauses pile quand il faut. Le moment fort: le Perito Moreno qui craque sous nos yeux, plus une petite navette en bateau hyper safe. Groupe réduit, zéro stress, photos de dingue. Rapport qualité-prix nickel. Si tu veux goûter la Patagonie sans prise de tête, fonce, c’est du solide. Je recommande à fond.
