A driver will take you to the airport for your flight to Bariloche in the lake district where a driver will be waiting for you in the arrivals lobby to assist you with your luggage and take you to your hotel.
Leaving Bariloche to the west, the road winds gently along the shores of the Nahuel Huapi lake with spectacular views of the Andean mountain range in the distance and the ever-changing colours of the lake in the foreground. From Playa Bonita you can see the little island of Huemul, just before reaching the foot of the Campanario mount, which you can climb the easy way on a chairlift to the top where you can enjoy a coffee while admiring the beautiful scenery. This privileged panoramic point offers views of the Nahuel Huapi and Perito Moreno lakes, as well as the Trebol lagoon, the San Pedro peninsula and the Llao Llao hotel, Victoria Island and the peaks of the Otto, López, Goye and Catedral mountains as well as the spread of the city of Bariloche itself.

The trip takes you across Lake Nahuel Huapi, Lake Frias and Lake Todos los Santos. The latter is also known as the Emerald lake due to the green-blue hue of the water, with an impressive view of the volcanoes Osorno and Calbuco reflected on its waters.
