    Underwhelming

    The guide was subcontracted through the booking agency. He and the camp cook were both great—friendly, hardworking, and did their best throughout. However, the overall trip did not match what was advertised. I had specifically expected a progressive drift where we would float new sections of river each day with camp set up ahead. Instead, we stayed at the same campsite about 45 minutes from San Carlos de Bariloche for all four nights. The site itself was quite close to a main road, so it didn’t feel particularly remote or peaceful. We also ended up drifting the same section of the Río Limay twice, and on one day we drove back to within five minutes of town to start the float. This made the experience feel more like a series of day trips rather than a true multi-day wilderness float. Fishing conditions were tough, which I understand can happen. The first day was good with a couple of solid rainbows and a brown, but the following days were very slow—only one fish per day on two days, plus a few small fish on another. Repeating water likely didn’t help. Overall, while the scenery was beautiful and the people were great, the trip was underwhelming and did not meet expectations for the price. Given the experience, I would probably opt for a quality day trip out of Bariloche next time rather than a multi-day.

    Response from the operator: Hello Rolf, Thank you for your review and for your kind words about the guide and the camp chef — we’re glad to hear their work met your expectations. Regarding the itinerary, as mentioned from the beginning, there was a possibility of fishing the Limay River instead of the Collón Curá depending on weather conditions. Due to heavy rains, the Collón Curá was muddy and unfishable, while the Limay — which remains clear — was the only viable option to carry out the expedition. As for the camp, the Limay River runs within Nahuel Huapi National Park, where camping is currently restricted to specific authorized areas. For this reason, we set up a base camp by the river on private, exclusive, and permitted land, ensuring both safety and comfort. Regarding repeating a section of the river, this was a decision agreed upon with you during the trip, as that stretch had produced very good fishing on the first day, which is why you agreed to fish it again. We regret that the experience did not fully meet your expectations, but we truly appreciate your feedback as it helps us continue improving. Best regards,

    I highly recommend this trip!

    This trip surpassed my expectations as I am new to fly fishing. Renzo was an amazing guide for my sister and me. He gave excellent instructions followed with gentle reminders on technique throughout the day. He celebrated with us as we caught several beautiful rainbow trout of significant size through out the absolutely gorgeous day on the river. I was hoping I would catch one. An amazing say from beginning to end. Thank you Renzo!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear that your trip exceeded expectations and that you had such a wonderful day on the river. Renzo will be very happy to know he helped make your first fly fishing experience so memorable. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Patagonia in the future! Best regards,

    Beautiful amazing Flyfishing on the Lamay River

    We had an amazing day fly fishing on the Lamay River with our guides Renzo and Dante. Three out of the four of us, were relative beginners but the guides were patient and taught us a lot. We caught a lot of good size rainbow trout. The steak lunch with a nice bottle of Malbec was fantastic. This day of fishing was a highlight of a week trip to Bariloche.

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your kind words! We’re very glad to hear you had a great day on the Limay River with Renzo and Dante. It’s wonderful that everyone enjoyed the fishing, caught some beautiful rainbow trout, and the Patagonian steak lunch with Malbec. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Patagonia in the future. Warm regards,

    Lamay river Flyfishing

    From the start Lucas was very informative and quick to answer my questions. When our flight cancelled he was very flexible about getting us rescheduled. Everything happened exactly as he promised. Our guide Danté was amazing. Lots of wind on the river from different directions but he did a great job on putting us on the fish and keeping the boat and us in position. He was very patient with my wife, who was a 1st time fly fisher. Lunch was great with some homemade treats from Dantés wife and great food and wine. My only regret of the day was hooking a huge brown on our last turn on the river and not landing it (he is haunting my dreams these past few nights 😁) Guess I’ll have to come back and try again. I highly recommend this team and company for your Bariloche fishing adventure!!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words, Alan!! It was truly a pleasure hosting you both, and I really appreciate your flexibility when the flight changes came up — sometimes Patagonia keeps us on our toes! I’m very happy everything worked out smoothly in the end. Danté will be proud to read this. Windy days on the Limay can be challenging, but that’s when experience really makes the difference. I’m especially glad your wife enjoyed her first fly fishing experience — that makes the trip even more special. And about that big brown… the ones that get away are the ones that bring us back 😉 We’ll be ready for the rematch next time. Thank you again for trusting us, and we hope to fish together again soon!

    Fly Fishing Trips & Guide Service in Bariloche: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bariloche.

    How much does Fly Fishing Trips & Guide Service in Bariloche cost?

    +

    Prices start at $660 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bariloche usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Fly Fishing Trips & Guide Service in Bariloche take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bariloche is not rushed.

    Is Fly Fishing Trips & Guide Service in Bariloche worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 43 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bariloche, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Fly Fishing Trips & Guide Service in Bariloche?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Fly Fishing Trips & Guide Service in Bariloche suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Fly Fishing Trips & Guide Service in Bariloche?

    +

    Around 15 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bariloche can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bariloche and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Fly Fishing Trips & Guide Service in Bariloche start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bariloche within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Bariloche?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Bariloche experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Trekking day in the mountains close to Bariloche, Fly Fishing Bariloche, Fly Fishing Trips in Bariloche. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Bariloche?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Bariloche?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
