Contratamos 3 excursiones.Primero el tren más parque, donde nos tocó Irina y Fito. Ambos dos genios! Excelente conducción y la guía sabía mucho y explica muy bien. Segunda la pinguinera, y la tercera hicimos recorrido de lagos en 4*4, Guillermo muy amable nos comentó de todo el impacto ambiental de la zona y sabe mucho de los árboles típicos. Ellos mismos luego realizan un asado, súper amables y muy atentos con las porciones y el punto de la carne.
