Our tour with Nicolas was simply amazing! He is such a knowledgeable guide, and it was great just to talk to him about the city of Ushuaia and Tierra del Fuego. Our group was only two people, which made a private tour perfect. The scenery for the hike is beautiful, and Laguna Esmeralda is just breathtaking. The hike itself is not particularly difficult either; there is one area that is a little steep, but most people should be able to tolerate it without problems. Once we arrived at the lake, we were able to enjoy some delicious alfajores and mate that Nicolas brought along. Luckily we arrived fairly early before the big crowds. After our hike (about 5 hours total), Nicolas took us to have lunch at a place that had the absolute best roasted lamb I've ever tasted. Not to mention the views at the restaurant were incredible as well. We followed lunch with more driving to the lakes region, including another relaxing stop at Fagnano before returning to our hotel. Overall, the tour was amazing and I wholeheartedly recommend Nicolas as a guide!
