We had Nico as our guide as Facundo could not make it. Nico was patient with our slow pace. He’s an experienced mountain guide.

Facundo is awesome. Very experienced and has a lot of good tips.
The hike to Ojo del Albino Glacier and Esmeralda Laguna was an epic experience. Truth be told, the hike would have been nearly impossible without the guidance of Facundo. Not only was he a great guide, he knew the terrain well, knew the safest routes and was extremely knowledgeable of the surrounding environment and ecology. He was well prepared with snacks/lunch and a hot beverage once reaching the glacier. The hike itself was long with steep, loose terrain once passing the Esmeralda lLaguna. But the stories Facundo shared made the strenuous march up to the glacier entertaining and fun. Highly recommend Facundo for any hiking or outdoor adventure.

We loved our Hiking day spent with Facundo as our guide. He picked us up on time, packed us great lunches, provided us with the gear we needed and was full of helpful information the entire day. He was easy to talk to and knowledgeable and made it such a fun day! The views from the top were amazing. We absolutely recommend Facundo as he seems very responsible and reliable and well prepared.

Facu was an incredible guide and put together a wonderful mountaineering tour for me and my 3 friends. I work as a summer mountain guide in Colorado, and I was very impressed with the quality of his knowledge and mountaineering skills. Most people won’t book his difficult, all-day mountaineering tours, but as a fellow mountaineer, I appreciated his attention to detail, personableness, and teaching skills for some of our less experienced team members. Seriously, Facundo is incredible. Please book a tour with him!
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
