TRAVEL BLOG AND ITINERARY

The brochure said ‘Sail Across the Andes’. How! The brochure said that we could go by bus and boat quite literally across the lakes and over passes with fantastic scenery and stunning views of both mountains and volcanoes along the way. That was an invitation not to be turned down.
To get to the starting point, we flew from Canberra to Sydney, to Auckland, to Santiago in Chile and finally to the small town of Bariloche, just on the Argentinean side of the Andes.
