Reviews

Fui solo y me encontré con un grupo chico de siete personas, ideal para charlar sin perder ritmo. Combinamos senderos boscosos en mountain bike, paradas en miradores del Lácar y una merienda con mate. Nos prestaron bici y casco, y ajustaron todo antes de salir. El guía sumó un desvío breve hasta una vista espectacular. Ambiente relajado, cero competencia y mucha buena onda.

With only a weekend free, I joined Best Patagonia Tours’ mountain bike outing and loved how smoothly everything ran. Our guide, Martín, knew every forest turn and explained the old Arrayanes trail without slowing us down. He pointed out a hidden viewpoint above Lake Lácar. Pickup arrived exactly on time, bikes were ready, and the route felt perfectly paced.

Fizemos a excursão de bicicleta de montanha num grupo pequeno, só seis pessoas, e o clima foi super tranquilo, sem correria. Pedalamos por trilhas lindas perto de San Martín, paramos para fotos, tomamos mate com alfajores e ainda fizemos uma caminhada curta até um mirante. O guia foi atencioso e ajustou as bikes para nós.

Wir haben die Mountainbike-Tour zum Geburtstag meiner Freundin gemacht – besser hätte unser gemeinsamer Trip kaum starten können. Unser Guide Martín kannte rund um San Martín de los Andes jeden Abzweig und erklärte sogar die alten Araukarien. Der bequeme Kleinbus mit Fahrradträger, Wasser und beheizten Sitzen war nach dem Schotterweg goldwert. Eine richtig schöne, persönliche Ausfahrt!

Tout était réglé au millimètre : départ à 9 h pile devant l’hôtel, vélos déjà ajustés et retour sans attente. Notre guide, Martín, connaissait chaque détour autour du lac Lácar ; il nous a même montré une ancienne borne forestière cachée près du sentier. Il adaptait le rythme à nos jambes de retraités, avec humour et de vraies explications.
