A wonderful experience for Yellow Dog traveler David O. who spent some time in Chile at Magic Waters Lodge. Read his brief thoughts below:
Did you find the trip booking process through Yellow Dog enjoyable and useful? If not, please share why.
- The booking process was very easy and Jack was very helpful in choosing a destination.
Were the Yellow Dog pre-trip planning packet(s) and travel itinerary you received for your trip helpful and accurate? If not, how could it be improved?
- Yes, helpful and accurate
Did the lodging (rooms, dining area, social area, etc) match what you were expecting? If not, please provide additional comments or constructive feedback.
- Magic Waters was a beautiful location and the lodge and rooms were very comfortable.
Did the food (breakfast, lunch, dinner) match what you were expecting? If not, please provide additional comments or constructive feedback.
- The food was very good.
Do you have any comments or constructive feedback based on the service, friendliness, etc of the lodge staff?
- The staff did a great job, very friendly and took great care of us.
Were you pleased with your guide(s) customer service, communication skills, professionalism, work ethic, and general fishing knowledge? If not, please share why.
- Good set of guides that worked hard and tried to get us on fish.
What key piece(s) of gear, tackle, flies, soft goods, etc. made your trip successful?
- If you’re going to wade these waters you need felt boots. You stressed not bringing lugged boots because of the boats but rubber soles don’t work. The lodge loaned me some felt.
What piece(s) of equipment would you not leave home without for this trip?
- You could travel very light and use their gear. You were right about leaving half your clothes at home especially since they did our laundry once during the week.
Would you return to this destination? Please share why or why not.
- Beautiful place, friendly people and great fishing. Yes, I would go back.
