Angelo was fantastic and made sure I was never cold during our camping nights. Excellent equipment! Food was great, he always thought to leave some wine and nice drinks for after long sporty days! Amazing itinerary, go for it!

We were extremely lucky to be able to book our Kayaking trip with Espiritu. While hiking in Patagonia, we found out that our trip to Antarctica was cancelled and found ourselves with an extra 10 days to explore the region. One of the activities we had signed up for on the Antarctic cruise was kayaking amongst icebergs, so we immediately started searching for alternative options to do this. We contacted every operator that we could find and asked about their last minute availability. Lucky for us, Angelo got back to us almost immediately and had availability on his schedule departing the very next day - we were leaving Puerto Natales within 24 hours of contacting him! While originally thinking we would just do a 2 day trip, Angelo convinced us that a 3 day trip would be more rewarding and have more opportunity to kayak with icebergs. We paid the listed price and found it to be competitive or cheaper than any of the alternate operators. Once we found out it would be a private trip, we realized it was an amazing deal!
We met Angelo and Valeriia at the office in Puerto Natales to load up the van and then head to Grey Lake in Torres Del Paine for our first day of paddling. The wind was extremely strong (as is common across Patagonia) and there were even whitecaps on the water. Several other groups were already out on the water and we saw them struggling to get anywhere. Rightfully, Angelo warned us the weather may not be in our favor to see icebergs up close, but if we worked hard, we could make it. Both of us had moderate prior kayaking experience and we quickly realize how lucky we were to be on a private trip as Angelo could tailor the experience to our level. We were the only group to make it close to icebergs that day! It was the hardest day of paddling I’ve done, but we always felt safe as Angelo is a very experienced guide (he said he trained many of the guides at the other companies). We had lunch on a peninsula looking back at icebergs lit up beautifully in the sun. After lunch, we tried to make it to the next bay of icebergs, but the weather conditions weren’t going to allow that, so we turned back with the wind for a much easier return, stopping to admire more icebergs up close and take lots of pictures along the way. We finished the day early in the afternoon and hopped back in the van for a quick drive to our campsite. While this was Valeriia’s first time guiding a kayaking trip, her time to shine came as soon as camp was set up and she started cooking. We were eating a delicious spread of food all evening!
The next morning, we starting kayaking right from camp. This time we had to load all of the gear into the kayaks as we wouldn’t have the luxury of the van at the next site, so we got a somewhat late start. We had the benefit of paddling with the current on the second day, but we had to go much further. In total, we ended up paddling almost 25 miles for the day! Lunch was burritos with leftovers from the night before – another delicious meal and much needed energy for the long paddle. After lunch, Angelo did get a bit frustrated with us as our pace was slower than it needed to be make it to the campsite before dark. We were able to pick up the pace and make it to the campsite while still enjoying the peacefulness and amazing scenery on the river. While the day wasn’t as “exciting” as the first, we only saw one of the group of people all day and could really appreciate the remoteness of the area. Our campsite was at the Serrano glacier lagoon. Tour boats bring large amounts of people every day to view the glacier and icebergs but luckily they were all gone by the time we arrived. What reinforced the remoteness of the site was the stars - while the night sky on our entire trip through Patagonia was amazing, this was probably one of the best nights – laying out on the dock surrounded by water and mountains, watching for shooting stars!
Our last day was only about an hour and a half of paddling on the glacier lagoon, but it was absolutely spectacular! We got up close and personal with a ton of icebergs without the wind or waves we experienced on Grey Lake. It was also phenomenal to get so close to the glacier and truly appreciate its size. All of our paddling was before the tour boat arrived, so we got to experience everything in complete peacefulness without crowds. Once the boat arrived, we had to load all of our gear (including kayaks) on it for the trip back to Puerto Natales (Angelo and Valeriia had take a different boat to get the van). We felt a bit out of place on the tour boat, having not showered in several days, but enjoyed the lamb lunch at the authentic Estancia.
Overall, this trip was one of the top highlights of our entire three weeks in Patagonia. Angelo and Valeriia were a ton of fun, but also professional and had all of the experience necessary to create a memorable, safe trip. Everything from the kayaking to the food was exceptional and Valeriia took a ton of pictures which she shared with us to help these memories last forever!

En nuestro primer viaje a Torres del Paine (y es seguro que no será el último) para conocer y sentir el ambiente nos toco la enorme fortuna de que Angelo organizara nuestras excursiones para tener una probadita de lo esencial.
Debo decir que todo estuvo EXCELENTE!! los lugares, actividades y sobretodo LOS GUÍAS.
Lo pasamos increíble! Seguro volveremos y por mas.

Nous avions booké une journée de kayak (privative!!!) à 3, accompagnés d'Angelo.
Nous n'avons pas été déçus.
Malgré le temps menaçant, les conditions difficiles, et notre niveau intermédiaire, Angelo nous a coaché et n'a pas ménagé ses efforts et son professionnalisme pour nous emmener pagayer au milieu des icebergs du Lago Grey. Ça n'a pas toujours été de tout repos, mais ça en valait la peine: un moment magique hors du temps, avant que la tempête ne nous rattrape ...
Merci Angelo

Angelo was a great guide, funny and easy to get along with. He made our two days a memorable experience and encouraged us to keep going when we got tired hiking or kayaking. His tours are off the beaten track and provide a more unique perspective of Patagonia. On our first tour he took us up into Cerro Castillo it was a 5 hour hike in total to the summit and back. Not for the faint hearted, me and my partner go for hikes often and found this challenging but super fun ! On our second day we went on a kayak trip around lake grey to see some icebergs and then kayaked down river grey which had some small rapids. This was a big challenging but Angelo made sure to guide us and was very professional in ensuring our safety at all times. I can definitely recommend his tours !

Eu e uma amiga contratamos este passeio (bastante caro) com a expectativa de que fosse a melhor memória de nossa viagem à Patagônia e temos a infelicidade de lembrar dele como o pior momento de nossas merecidas férias.
Entendemos a impossibilidade de chegarmos próximas ao grande Glaciar Grey (na verdade, não tínhamos entendido que só haveria oportunidade de se aproximar de um iceberg, caso ele estivesse na Baía do Rio Grey), mas não imaginávamos que poderíamos ser tratadas de forma tão rude por um profissional da área do turismo.
Nosso guia gritava, esbravejava e chegou a se afastar de nós (que conduzíamos um caiaque pela primeira vez), deixado-nos por um tempo sem qualquer comando, dizendo que não se importaria se acontecesse algo conosco porque não o obedecíamos (o que não era verdade). Tentamos por vários momentos conversar com ele, chegando inclusive a propor a interrupção do passeio (visto que ja se tornara um pesadelo), mas ele estava furioso e não se esforçava pra entender nossas argumentações.
Foram momentos de muita tensão. Acabamos o passeio com medo, chateadas, sem fome, sem vontade de conversar, querendo ir embora o mais rapidamente possível daquele lugar.
Profissionalismo, tranquilidade e segurança são prioritários em passeios como este. O rio é congelante e imagino que um acidente teria nos custado a vida. Pensamos em fazer uma reclamação para o departamento de turismo daquele país, entendendo que ninguém merece passar por isso. Não o fizemos porque, diante de tantos comentários contrários ao nosso, acreditamos que possa ter sido a infelicidade de pegar o guia com algum problema pessoal - o que não justifica, lógico.

We had a great day trip with Angelo and the team at Espiritu Patagon on their Grey Lake 1 day Kayak experience. The booking process was very straight forward and Angelo kept us updated on what to expect and the relevant paperwork required. on the day the team was very punctual and thorough. The day was cloudy and overcast but we had a great time kayaking up and down the grey river. We got to get up close to some icebergs that had broken off the glacier and finished the tour with a relaxing kayak down grey lake. Overall fantastic experience and highly recommend!

Muy buen servicio, los instructores se preocuparon en todo momento, fueron cercanos y se notaba su profesionalismo en el tema. El recorrido fue hermoso, lago y rio Grey, super recomendable.

We just got Close to one single iceberg which was very sad because we wanted to Kayak between the ice. The ice was far away and Not to reach due to strong Wind. For Just kayaking down a River 3 hours 380 000 Peso was overcharged. Guide didnt explain very well and was Mad with us when we did Something wrong. Also in River he kayaked 30 m in Front of us which is not good in Case WE need Help Also the little Fotos we have are Not good (His Fingers on it) The Guys in perito Moreno Glacier Had a professionell Fotograph which would have Been better. So we were disappointed after this trip which should never be after a Tour. At least the Driver was very friendly.

Wow !!!! Wat een ervaring !!! Dit waren 3 onvergetelijke dagen . Begin van het seizoen bracht ons prachtig weer , met het voordeel dat we op onze trip " NO TOURISTS " hadden . Angelo zorgde voor een UNIEKE ervaring. Deze solide , outdoor expert , gidst je veilig doorheen de prachtige natuur ... Wees voorbereid voor een avontuurlijke ervaring , die ook een avontuurlijke ingesteldheid omvat ... Weer in Patagonia kan snel veranderen , dus enige volharding is wenselijk !
