On H2O in General:

“There is one word for H2O Patagonia: Amazing! Amazing facilities, amazing area, amazing whitewater and last but not least, amazing guides, who were professional, friendly, and most of all made us feel safe even running class V whitewater! I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants an adventure while being pampered at the same time.”
-Deb Scisco; Owner of Outdoor Beyond, Adventure and Expedition Travel for Women

“Antucamay is as pretty as heaven, the Futaleufu larger than life. Gourmet food and fabulous Chilean wines were a terrific antidote to adrenaline jitters. The feeling of being at the end of the world made the whole experience all the more unforgettable. I'll drive my friends crazy reminiscing about this journey.”
-Rob LaGrone, Jetsettersmagazine.com

“The entire experience was awesome. High adventure and adrenaline thrills on the river with superb guides, then relaxing each evening in rustic comfort to enjoy Chile’s best wines paired with gourmet meals. It doesn’t get any better.”
-Anna Hobbs

“H2O Patagonia is something out of the ordinary in a distant land. It was very easy to spend a week in this particular paradise, and I certainly plan to return soon with my wife and friends.”
–Fred Promoli; Ontario, Canada

“I loved the unique combination of adventure and pampering. The adventure not only involved rafting and kayaking down some of the biggest bluest rapids in Chile, but also professional guides who had our safety as their first priority and fun as the second. The pampering came back at the ranch with regular massages, a soak in the hot tub with a drink in hand or the nibbling of canapas by the fire before a gourmet meal. Bringing all this together disconnected me completely from the rat race of the city and was a great atmosphere for bringing together a diverse group of people from around the world.Great job!”
-Kylie Chick, Ingeniero de Proyectos, Chile

“I was expecting a rafting trip… I got so much more.”
-John Summer; Portland, Maine

“H2O Patagonia has discovered a way to combine adventurous activities with luxurious accommodations and excellent service—I have experienced many similar trips but never felt as comfortable, “pampered”, safe and well taken care of.”

On The H2O Guide Team:

“Wow! Top notch! Amazing! Made us feel safe and capable of doing impossible things. Very committed, warm, customer oriented. They worked great as a team… And very handsome!”
-Armelle Armstrong; Geneva, Switzerland

“In a sport such as white water rafting, one of the top criteria one should be concerned with when considering which group to use is attention to detail...in this, I found the H20 Patagonia people absolutely top notch. Safety was a primary concern, as it should, followed closely by a genuine concern that the participants are enjoying the trip to the max”
-Jay Dickman, National Geographic Photographer

“Their skill levels are outstanding; they have all-round knowledge in many related areas and the ability to pass this on in an interesting way. They are strong, unique characters who bond terrifically and keep everyone's mood cheerful!”
–Fred Promoli; Ontario, Canada

“These guys know their stuff. I felt both challenged and safe at the same time. They were very professional, experienced, and friendly.”
-John Summer; Portland, Maine

“Stan did a first rate job on the raft. I was impressed both by his skill in handling the raft itself –he made bigger rapids seem much smoother than they really were - and perhaps even more so by his overall tone which conveyed competence, assurance, and no need to call undue attention to himself. Mitch was a solid source of information on local flora, fauna and culture. All of the guides were very skilled and personable. I found everyone on the staff to be outgoing and generous with their time.”
-Joe Kane, Author of Running the Amazon and Savages

“Harvey King is an unbelievable first-class guide. He is someone who never seems to be down, and is always willing to answer any question asked. What some guides might lack in communication skills, Harvey has three-fold. Our journey with Harvey was safe and memorable.”
Gary T. Kachadurian; Hinsdale, IL

“I have rafted with Beth Rypins on 8 rivers on three continents. Put simply; she's
the best. She's the best rafter, the best story teller, and the best in the face of overwhelming fear and calamity at providing assurance and comfort. Adventure travel uniquely brings small groups together from all walks of life. Few guides are as comfortable and confident as Beth with people from all cultures and strata of society. Beth started as my guide, and a decade later she is my friend.”
