Our Team – Walk Patagonia | Tourist Service Provider of trekking and expeditions in Los Glaciares National Park, Patagonia, Argentina

The founders

Once upon a time there was an English girl Zoe, who was working in Latin America as a tour leader. She worked throughout the continent loving her job of sharing the great music, different cuisine, amazing landscapes and different cultures on offer with other people from around the world.

She guided groups from Cuba to Argentina, crossing Central America, Ecuador, Mexico and everything in between.

One day she was in Patagonia, El Chaltén, about to trek to Laguna de los Tres with a group of tourists. The company had hired a mountain guide to accompany the group. Leo arrived, and instantly they fell in love.

A few years later they founded Walk Patagonia, got married and lived hundreds of adventures together all over the world from Iceland to the Falklands…

Now, they have been running the company since 2007, and have a happy life between El Calafate and El Chaltén, where the operational offices are.
