With our whole family we made an unforgettable journey to Patagonia and Antarctica. Sapa Pana Travel organized the trip for us and everything was taken care of down to the last detail. We enjoyed the 'wonders of nature', immense glaciers, beautiful lakes, penguins etc. Especially the zodiac trip on Antarctica was an experience to remember. In short, amazing!
