Expérience inoubliable ! La traversée des Andes de Bariloche à Puerto Varas avec Daytours4u a été dingue. Organisation au top: bus + bateaux, zéro stress aux frontières. Les guides super sympas, plein d’infos et d’attentions. Paysages de folie: lacs émeraude, volcans, forêts… on s’arrête pour des photos et un café, tout est fluide.
