"Exploration Journeys gave me the gift of peace of mind, exactly what you need on vacation. I so appreciated the attention to detail, as that can make or break a trip (especially with kids)."
"We were 22 people, ranging in ages from 8 to 80, traveling to 4 cities in twelve days. So seamless and easy, I wish I could have them with me for all my travels from now on!!!"

"Fred of Exploration Journeys must have his phone superglued to his hand because whenever we had a request he almost immediately responded-regardless of the time and day."
"Most impressive, however, was the reaction of Fred when we could have been stranded at one of our sites because of an airline strike. He immediately responded with effective action in finding flights for continuing our journey. It is not an overstatement that he saved the latter part of our vacation!"

TRIP REVIEW OF KENNY MOK AND WILLIAM BORING
"We had a memorable adventure through Argentina with the help of Exploration Journeys. We live in Northern California and hesitated about having an online tour company based in Argentina to help us with our vacation. But after several email exchanges, we found Exploration Journeys to be a trustworthy and bona fide company.Fred, the Exploration Journeys rep and host, was always prompt with his responses to our many inquiries before AND during our trip. Even though he was not with us in person, he was always available either by phone or via email. We told him places where we'd like to visit, and he helped arranged for all the domestic flights within Argentina.
Pickups and transfers to airports are set up, in addition to printed e-boarding passes. Fred would alert us immediately if there were any changes or delays with our domestic flights. Not only would he have a Plan B, but he would also have a Plan C.
The best part was that Fred possesses a deep knowledge of Argentina and all the tours, so he provided us with a lot of good insights.
Argentina is a vast country with lots of varied climates and terrains. Unlike the rest of Latin America, Argentina is very European, with a mix of Italians and Spanish cultures. We started out in Buenos Aires, then headed to the Andes Mountains in Mendoza, then flew down to Tierra del Fuego and Patagonia. Buenos Aires is a cosmopolitan city and is quite safe, compared to most major cities in the U.S. People are very tolerant of Americans with limited Spanish skills. Tierra del Fuego and Patagonia are the places that one must go in his/her lifetime. the experience is indescribable. Mendoza is a must if you like Malbec.
As far as food is concerned, aside from the famous parilla, trying the alfajores that are made fresh from the bakeries is a must. Once you've tasted freshly made alfajores, you won't go back to the boxed varieties! And bring home some Malbec and dulce de leche!"
