Expedition loaded with emotions without equal, so much for the magnitude of the landscapes, the rough weather, the work of the mules, guides and baqueanos, added to the historical stamp that is printed in each moment in each camp, where in a certain way we relived the epic of that great patriot Don José de San Martín and his liberating troops, who chose these ravines, mountain ranges, valleys and steps to start our freedom as a country and as a continent.

I recently completed two amazing trips with Posta Inca, and I can only give the highest recommendation to Cristian and his company! If ever a person was destined to be a trekking guide, it is Cristian. His enthusiasm and knowledge know no limits! I joined Posta Inca for the total solar eclipse tour. We were a large group with people of all ages and trekking abilities. Cristian and his colleagues took us to the perfect spot to view the eclipse in a secluded valley. All of the trip details were handled very professionally and with attention to detail. The following day I went on a day hike in the foothills outside of the capital of San Juan with Cristian and two other guests. Cristian led us up to the top of three different peaks. We shared mates, a delicious lunch and many laughs/stories at the tops of the peaks. Cristian taught us a lot about the flora, fauna and geology of the area. He answered all of our questions with a giant smile. Don’t hesitate to book a trip with Posta Inca when you visit San Juan! When I return to San Juan I will book a multi-day trek with Posta Inca for sure!

The Punta Negra dike is the main tourist spot near the city of San Juan. The possibility of entering the water from the boards and with the snorkel are unique, since its beaches are not enabled for bathing and swimming. The view from the middle of the mirror are unique. The proximity of the mountains and the wonderful mirror of water make the activity be enjoyed from the moment.

We had an amazing free walking tour today in Madrid with a guy called Gibson. He was super friendly, funny, and fluent in Spanish and English. We heard all about the city's history, the people who lived here, and the Spanish culture. In addition he gave us some tips for good restaurants/bars and other sightseeings. I would highly recommend a tour with Gibson to everyone who wants to laugh about Spanish royals anecdotes, be amazed by his comprehensive historical knowledge, and fell in love with this beautiful city. Enjoy.

Go with a good appetite, so many variety of meats, take just a little so you can make it to the end! Loved the lamb, filet mignon, garlic beef the best. Even saved room for dessert and left feeling very satisfied
