"Excellent in every way, well-organized. The two experiences I had with Sil, one in Bolivia and now in Catamarca, demonstrate his commitment to clients who have become our friends.
Thank you, Sil, for supporting me and always encouraging me to do more."
Gustavo B., Huayna Potosí (6088m) - Ojos del Salado Expedition (6893m).
"Winter Vallecitos. Weather conditions prevented us from climbing Rincón Hill, but we did receive a great workout and plenty of anecdotes. Thank you @andesxtadventures for your flexibility, care, and professionalism!."
Marcela R., Rincón Mt. Expedition.
"She always takes care of everything; it's very reassuring to be able to climb with Sil. I had the opportunity to climb Cerro Plata and to do an expedition in Peru in the Cordillera Blanca, Ishinca, and Urus. I recommend her because she's always one step ahead of any situation, which generally makes for unique expeditions. Thank you for helping me expand my limits."
