7. Consumer satisfaction
From Nathan (extra long day ride, October 2014)
“We arrived back tired and a little sore, but still with the silly grins on our faces. This is truly one of very few places left where a gringo can still get his cowboy on.“
From Lauren Fear (2 days, winter snow in El Toyo):
‘It was surreal’
From Aaron Kolpelowitz (5 days high Andes)
“The ride was one of the highlights of the last 10 years. The horses were wonderfully well cared for and it was apparent in their stature and gate. Rigo and Angelo were excellent guides. It was a pleasure to be able to ride at any pace at all times. The vistas and terrain were inspiring and significant. The night sky glowed with the white moon overhead and the southern hemisphere has stars i have never seen.
I do expect to be able to ride with Rigo again soon and look forward to it very much.”
From Tobias Megerle (1 day trip El Toyo)
“Hi, thanks again for the very nice trip :-)))… Okay, that’s it, I am going to recommend your company to friends, colleagues…”
From Luiz Fernando Saife Salemi (1 day trip El Toyo)
“Our day at the mountains was just amazing. I can’t describe what I felt that day”
From Ellen Evans (day trip to the glacier in bad weather)
‘Truly the best day of my life’
From Kim, Daniel and 8 year-old Liam (4days ride in El Toyo, nights in Hostal)
“We came for 2 nights and stayed 4 because we enjoyed ourselves so much”
