You guys seem like really positive people, thank you for the video! It seems like Torres del Paine beat El Chalten in terms of views but the convenience on that Fitz Roy hike also seems attractive. Hopefully I can do both! I would probably skip Moreno Glacier (just to save money) because I used to guide glacier kayaking in alaska so I've had the chance to get close up and personal with glaciers.

Amazing video with lots of tips, thank you guys! Going there in March so very excited 🥳 you mentioned about paying flights in cash direct with the airline and only paying 55%. Do you know if that’s the same for all their flights? Or was this a one off deal? Thanks!
@SomethingToRemember

Glad to hear it was helpful! The flights worked out 45% cheaper because we withdrew Argentinian Pesos from Western Union and then used that cash to pay for the flights in the Argentinas Aerolineas office in Buenos Aires. It’s not a deal or anything like that, it’s just a matter of getting your money at the “blue dollar” exchange rate and then using that cash to pay for everything. Western Union is how to get money at the blue dollar rate. Hope this helps 😊

How stunning is Patagonia! I was wondering if you got to see Cerro Torre, which lies directly behind Fitzroy? Had the reputation of being not only the most beautiful mountain, but also the most difficult and dangerous climb in the world. It was very controversial because an Italian mountaineer called Maestri, had taken a portable compressor up with him and destroyed the climb by drilling and inserting hundreds of bolts, making it easy for every one.

As for WU, if you’ve been sending money to your friend it should be really simple for you… Just sent it to your name instead & make sure you select Argentina as the receiving country and put in your name exactly as it appears on your passport 😊 Definitely use Western Union… It saved us A LOT of money!

In Patagonia, it is definitely better to make sure you have a good opportunity to get good weather rather than trying to avoid the crowds… So, we’d say go during peak season when the weather is good and try to go to places as early in the morning as possible to get there before the tour buses 😊 Overall, we didn’t think Patagonia was over-crowded.

Take your passport, a copy of your passport and a screenshot of the number you receive when you complete the transaction on the app to any Western Union in Argentina (opening times and times for foreign exchange transactions vary from location to location). 5.

In general, no… The only place we saw signs saying “we accept dollars” was in tourist hotspots like El Chalten in Patagonia, and even then they would give you your change back in Argentinian Pesos. Their currency is very much Argentinian Pesos, not dollar or euro… We spent about 5 weeks in Argentina, the rates go up and down a little bit but not enough to really notice. Bottom line is that you definitely need to use Argentinian Peso cash and the best way to access it is by using WU 👍🏻

Hi! To be completely honest, we wouldn’t be comfortable recommending you to stay there. The tour was great, but the hotel owner doesn’t do it anymore and we didn’t really like staying there, which is why we didn’t name it in our video 😅 You can find similar day tours to the one we did on Viator, you can find a link for those tours in our description box. With regards to accommodation, we’d recommend booking an Airbnb in PN and getting picked up from there for your tour 😊 Sorry we can’t be more helpful, we hope this clears it up a bit 👍🏻

@@SomethingToRememberThank you so much for your quick reply. How much do you think I should hope to spend? I'm traveling by myself so I have no one to split it with and the link you provided is $85 for the day. I guess that's not terrible but I'd like to do my due diligence.

Yes, it’s $85 for that tour and you’ll also have to pay an extra 35$ to enter the National Park. Chile is not cheap 😅

Puerto Williams is the southernmost city in the world 👍

Ushuaia is more commonly regarded as the southernmost city in the world due to its sufficiently larger population (71000 people compared to just 2000 in Puerto Williams), its infrastructure, and its accepted classification as a city! Thanks for your comment 😊

@@SomethingToRemember nah, is an argentinian marketing stuff. Puerto Williams is a City, legally accepted by the Chilean State 👍, since 2019 a think, you can google it 👍. So the southernmost city in the world is Puerto Williams, just to fix your data. Great video and too sad you didn’t do the entire Torres del Paine trekking, that is amazing 🙌

Nunca deja de sorprenderme como a los turistas que provienen de países con comedias guerras con una tasa de conversión hiper beneficiosa hasta al cambio oficial decir lo caro que es todo. No lo puedo creer. ¿Cuánto quiere pagar por semejante servicio? Muy probablemente el pasaje en micro salga el equivalente a unos pocos pasajes en subte en sus países. Lo mismo con el hospedaje, dicen que al ver el mapa mundial no puede creer en el lugar remoto donde están pero el hospedaje para dos personas les parece caro! Increíble!

It’s quite obvious that we are comparing the prices in each country in South America in our recent videos. For example, Chile is expensive when compared to Bolivia. Uruguay is expensive when compared to Ecuador. It’s a simple concept, but thank you for your negative comment anyway 👍🏻
Not the southernmost city in the world. There are many cities south of Bariloche.

Maybe you shouldn’t comment on something you know absolutely nothing about then.
Your comparison between Chile and Argentina just shows why Chile is successful, and Argentina a failed state. Personally as an outsider taking advantage of Argentina is not how I travel. We loved Chile. Atacama is magnificent.

Here on this travel channel, we genuinely couldn’t care less about economics or politics or whatever umbrella that stuff about a “failed state” falls into. We will travel everywhere and anywhere giving our personal opinions on the travel side of things. We loved Chile. We loved Argentina. Chile can be expensive to travel in. Argentina can be cheap to travel in. We don’t over-complicate things here 👍🏻
