Bus from Bariloche to El Chalten Sadly, I can't recall the name of the bus company. I do recall going to a travel agency in Bariloche and they mentioned this bus there too but their price seemed rather expensive. It was at this point we decided to go straight to the bus station and see what we could find out and were able to find that same bus company (it took A LOT of asking around and digging for some reason) and bought a ticket for that night...for almost half the price of what the tour company was asking. If I remember the name I will post it. My apologies for not remembering at this moment.
Wow Such maturity. "white trash"? haha
I don't even think I need to respond to this. I have added some 'explanations' (italicized) to certain areas of this blog since perhaps things were misunderstood. I felt this comment should be made public so that people realize what kind of person this "Maria" is. What a sad existence she must lead....
Bus from Bariloche? Hi,
In your travel blog you mention taking a small bus from Bariloche to El Chalten. I am in Bariloche right now trying to find a ride south, do you know the name of the bus company or any other idea or help to find a ride from Bariloche to El Chalten? I am hoping for a bus that is less than 3 days!
Thank You!

Congratulations Good to see your website has won an award. In my hostel in El Chalten it is blown up in reception. Apart from the person who burnt down part of the forest you are the only other foreigner to be rewarded. Still good that all will see your "How not to be a tourist award". Did you give them your address? Unfortunately I'm not coming to your part of the world so can´t deposit the recommended personal human waste as you did to to them in Argentina. If you ever leave for another country again do some research, for instance, on why there are stray dogs in the town that locals don´t want in the mountains. On second thoughts, if Ma and Pa ever give you vacation money again go instead to your local strip club with and hang out with other white trash you truly belong with.

So true!! Argentinian people were definitely kind people that always tried to help....even when they had no clue they would still try....often leading you astray. haha That guy´s generosity definitely did not go by unnoticed.....I could have stolen his camera for all he knew. Nice to see kind trusting people like that still exist..... :)
Interesting read... I'm not surprised about the Argentinian guy lending you his camera as they're amongst the friendliest and most helpful people in the world!
