Luxury Argentina & Chile Trip Review: Tierra del Fuego 4x4 Excursion, Beagle Channel Boat Tour, Buenos Aires Food & Dance

There were so many wonderful moments it is hard to pick just a few.
We loved the private, history filled tour of Buenos Aires in particular.  Our guide was knowledgeable about past and current history as well as offering reflections on living in Buenos Aires.  We enjoyed the Tango Dinner in Buenos Aires and the Argentine Dinner Party Experience.
Ushuaia was a beautiful place to visit.  We were on our own for dinner here but got excellent recommendations from our planner and another from our vehicle mates on the 4X4 Adventure Tierra del Fuego.  We had three outstanding meals at 1/2 the price we would pay at home!  Our driver/guide on the 4X4 trip was excellent and the whole day was filled with beautiful vistas, excellent company and food.  We enjoyed the Beagle Channel Boat tour to visit the Magelanic Penguins.
Calafate included a wonderful walk  through the Laguna Nimez reserve (a bird photographer's/watcher's dream).  Visiting the Perito Mareno Glacier was as awe inspiring as any other great wonder such as the Grand Canyon (many people sitting and watching it for extended periods).  We thought our chances of hearing and seeing the glacier in action (calving) would be rare but in our couple of hours, it happened quite a few times.  Next we spent a day at an El Calafate Ranch with horseback riding.  The day was wonderful and, like many of the places we had been, the scenery was just awesome.
We ended our tour with three nights and two days at a camp in Patagonia.  Our two days of hiking were spectacular and included amazing vistas and views (think Ansel Adams).  As an amateur photographer, it seemed only a dream that we might come across the top of the food chain (Puma) but, on our second day, we were lucky enough to we within photographic distance of one at a recent kill.  The guides and entire staff at the camp were outstanding and super friendly.  It was early spring and it was wonderful coming back to a lit fire in the wood stove of our Suite Dome (well worth the splurge).
