Choosing transportation options is tough. Buses can be the best option for independent travelers, those spending significant time in a region, and if returning to the original destination is not a logical option. #traveltip #travelblog #trekking #trek

Patagonia Tip 10: One striking note about the region is the lack of any development between the few cities. Fill your gas tank 🚗 when you can because there are no stand-alone gas stations even along the major routes! #trekking #travelblog #traveltip

Patagonia Travel Tip #9: Buying fuel in Patagonia is very easy. Each station has attendants who pump the fuel for you and accept payment. All we had to do was stop, ask them for a full tank of diesel and were on our way! #trekking #travelblog #travel

Patagonia Tip #8: Having a rental car adds to your flexibility but restricted us to start and end at the same location. Dropping off a rental vehicle in a different location causes the price to skyrocket #travelguide #traveltips #travelblog #patagonia

Patagonia Tip #7: Beware of renting a vehicle from a third-party supplier. For international rentals, stick with making the reservation directly from the rental car company, likely Avis or Europcar.

Patagonia Tip #6 👉 Rental car companies have different rules and costs for border crossing permits. Some only allow certain classes of vehicles to have this permit, so the cheapest car rental might not be allowed to cross the border. #trekking

Patagonia Tip #5 👉 Choosing a mode of transportation will be a function of budget, the nature of the infrastructure, and the destinations you wish to go. In Patagonia, there are two options: public transportation (buses, not trains) and a rental car.

Patagonia Tip #4 👉 Patagonia is a single term that encompasses an extremely vast range of terrain. Traveling 🚗 throughout Patagonia takes a lot longer than it appears when looking at a map 🗺️. Be prepared for LONG travel days between destinations.

Bumps in the road are inevitable, and even the most perfect plan will be disrupted by unforetold circumstances, but those armed with the most information will be better set up for a successful trip.

Some want every element of the trip to be written in ink and others that value a go-with-the-flow mentality. Which are you? Having the freedom to see what happens when is part of the fun for some, while the uncertainty can doom others. #trekking #camping

Choosing travel companions to join you on your trip is like choosing a roommate. Your best friend can make for a terrible roommate. When choosing friends for a trip, understand what every person is looking for and the type of traveler each of you are

Backpacking Pro Tip: When determining an itinerary for any trip, it is important to be self-reflective. Everyone finds enjoyment from different things and chooses to prioritize particular aspects of a trip over others. #trekking #travelblog #getoutside
