We’ve just returned from Argentina and Chile, and it’s one of the best holidays we’ve ever had. Sundowner put together a brilliant itinerary that let us experience Patagonia on both sides of the border—Chile’s dramatic mountain scenery and Argentina’s awe-inspiring glaciers—for a journey we will never forget.

Our trip to Chile and Ecuador went really smoothly with flights and transfers all well organised. In Chile we visited the Atacama Desert and the lake district, both very different and memorable. In Ecuador we enjoyed exploring Quito and then spent time in the Galápagos where swimming with sea lions and seeing giant tortoises was a real highlight. We were well looked after throughout and didn’t have to worry about a thing. A fantastic holiday, thank you.

We planned our honeymoon in Chile with Sundowner Holidays and it was perfect. We explored Santiago and the surrounding wine country, then flew south to the lake district, enjoying quiet walks by the lakes and local markets. The mix of city, countryside, and nature made it really special, and Sundowner helped make it a trip we’ll always remember.
