We had a wonderful time...everything was well organized, the travel arrangements you provided were excellent.The hotels were equally amazing, people super-nice (surprisingly more so in BA than in Patagonia!), and the scenery was literally breath-taking - especially in Patagonia.
We were very fortunate with the weather as well - in short: awesome trip.
Highly recommend you as a travel agency.

Analia and Eureka Travel were excellent! Analia had great ideas and was extremely responsive in helping us plan the trip. She returned emails and phone calls quickly and was on target with her ideas. We had almost zero problems on the trip with all transitions occurring very smoothly. Once or twice when we had a concern, we called and she helped solve the problem.
Analia recommended the homestay in Lago de Titicaca and that was memorable. A real high point!
I would have loved to have added a few days, if only we had the time. It would have been great to trek into Canyon de Colca but we didn't have time.
I also would have loved to have seen Valparaiso and more of Chiloe… maybe next time.

I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful trip that you planned for my family and me. It was a superbly well-organized trip and we all had an amazing time. All of the drivers and agencies that you provided us were extremely punctual and professional. I was expecting a certain amount of "latin time" when it came to being picked up, but they were more punctual than even by US standards. The hotel location in Buenos Aires was perfect and the Tango show and dinner was great. We also really enjoyed our time in Iguazu and the wine tasting expedition in Mendoza was fantastic. Overall, my family had a great time and were really surprised by how smoothly everything went. Thank you again for your hard work and for giving us such a memorable trip.

All of the accommodations you set up were great. The hotel at Urubamba was so beautiful and of course Hotel Nobility was wonderful! However, each hotel was great. Also, our plane from Trujillo to Cusco ended up being delayed by hours and the transfer agent waited for us and still met us at the Cusco airport despite us not thinking to notify anyone.
We all loved the people of Peru! They are so nice and helpful and everyone we interacted with seemed knowledgeable about their country and culture and curious about ours. The tour guides are amazing...I've been on lots of tours in lots of countries and never have I experienced such enthusiastic and knowledgeable guides. I loved it!!

We had excellent travel advice in a timely manner. Analia from the travel company was very helpful and on top of the details of our trip which involved several flights, car rentals, hotels etc.
Patagonia was amazing. Salta and the northwest was also wonderful. We also really enjoyed Cordoba especially since our daughter had studied there.
Dan & his family traveled to ARGENTINA in August 2012
Analia, our Argentina travel agent, was wonderful. She helped up plan the perfect trip.
The most enjoyable part of our trip was our time spent in El Calafate on both the Estancia Cristina excursion and the Perito Moreno Glacier excursion.

Analia at Eureka travel was wonderful to work with in coordinating and executing our two week vacation to Peru and Bolivia which we returned from on July 8, 2011. We wanted to see specific places in Peru and she customized our vacation to include all of the things we wanted. Each step of the way someone met us at our destination city, took us to our hotel and made sure we knew the itinerary for the tours of that city once we arrived there. We had great English speaking tours of all of the places we went and the hotels she booked us in were all very nice. Even when our flight plans changed, Analia was quick to adjust our tours and future flights to accommodate what we wanted to do. Analia was always great to return our phone calls and e-mails whenever we had questions and she even called us while we were in Peru to check on us. I think our constant contact and questions may have driven her crazy but she was wonderful and made us feel safe knowing that she was there if we encountered any problems.
Tamara & Scott travelled to Peru & Bolivia- June-July 2011.
Myself & family of 5 have just returned from a 14 day trip to Peru. Needless to say it was a wonderful adventure. This was the first time we have used a travel agent and it was the best decision we made the whole trip. I had met Analia at the travel show in Los Angeles and was immediately impressed with her attentiveness and willingness to listen to what we thought we wanted. After much discussion & listening to her input we decided on our itinerary. Analia was our advocate the entire trip. She arranged flights, hotels etc. however the thing we found most helpful was her idea to have local contacts at each stop to help with transfers from airport to hotel to train to boat etc. The entire trip seemed so easy that we almost took what she did for granted until...... the airport closed unexpectedly to "afternoon" flights the day before our "afternoon" flight out of Puno. Even thought it was a Sunday evening, Analia hit the computer and within an hour (while we were enjoying our delicious dinner) she had us booked for a flight that next morning. So...of all the little details, plans, arrangements, checking in with us along the way etc. The best thing I can say about our experience with Analia & Eureka is that she has a wonderful attitude, is a great problem solver and she was there when we needed her. We would definitely use Eureka Travel again.

Hi Analia,
Balaji and I had a great time at Peru. Luckily I did not become sick and did not have to use the Insurance benefits.But Cusco and Puno trip were too tiring and difficult for me as it demanded lots and lots of climbing up and down. Anyway I made it and Machu Picchu is really amazing.Thanks for the good arrangements esp.lly the train journey to Puno was enjoyable and return journey by Bus we were able to see some more ruins and civilization.
Thanks again, Maragatham

My wife and I booked a trip to Antarctica on our own on an ice breaker to see an emperor penguin colony. Analia helped us plan and book an itinerary in Argentina before and after the voyage and did a great job arranging guides, hotels,flights and excursions. Her services in this regard would have gotten a good review, but her real professionalism and caring came through while we were on the trip. During our voyage to Antarctica, the ship we were on became stuck in pack ice and its return to port was delayed. It eventually made it back to port a week late. We contacted Analia by satellite phone from the ship on a Sunday morning (I think we woke her up!) She worked with the expedition company that ran the ship excursion to cancel, rebook and rearrange our prior bookings constantly for the week we were stuck and did a magnificent job salvaging what could be saved of our remaining itinerary. Her enthusiasm and knowledge about travel in South America is great, her dedication to her clients makes her really special.

I recently booked a trip to Chile & Argentina with Eureka Travel and Analia, the owner of the travel agency was a delight to deal with.
Analia is Argentinian by birth so she knows the country very well and travels there regularly to see new hotels, restaurants etc. She gave us great advice about where to go and how long to stay in each location and listened carefully to what we wanted to get out of our trip - our likes and dislikes etc. he was very conscious of our budget too. Our trip was booked in record time and was seamless. We got a very thorough itinerary describing each day in detail, who would pick us up, who would guide us etc. We were travelling around both countries quite a lot but everything went so smoothly thanks to Analia's excellent planning. She managed to book all the hotels we wanted and provided us with excellent personal guides who were as personable as they were informative. Analia even sent us a complementary bottle of wine when we were in the wine region of Mendoza, Argentina and called one of our hotels in Chile to say hello and make sure we had arrived. During our trip we made a last minute change and wanted to get to Santiago on an earlier flight. We emailed Analia and she made the change in a matter of a couple of hours. When we returned she followed up with a call to ask how we enjoyed our trip, what we liked and what we didn't. Analia is a real professional and she genuinely cares that you have a great trip. I would highly recommend her services to anyone travelling to this part of the world.

We found Eureka travel via the website Zicasso. I was very concerned about using a travel agency we did not know or that any of our friends knew but wanted an agency that specialized in travel in Argentina. Since Zicasso screens agencies we were a bit more trusting. As soon as we received the inquiry from Eureka and Skyped with Analia Rupar-Przebieda - the owner of Eureka we knew we had a great match. We had an outstanding trip to Argentina and Ana did a fabulous job of setting it up and recommending places, hotels, activities. We highly recommend her if you plan a trip to Argentina and other South American destinations. She grew up in Argentina but moved to LA and started her own business. Since you are dealing with a US business it is much easier to make transactions and maintain communications. Not only was working with her professional it was fun!
Richard & his family traveled to Argentina. Buenos Aires, Iguazu, Mendoza & Bariloche in December 2010
It is hard to find a more conscientious, dedicated and enthusiastic travel agent who knows her stuff, thrives on a challenge and is such a pleasure to work with. Analia, from Eureka travel, has an amazing work ethic and provides the kind of customer service that is extremely rare in today’s world!
Analia sent us an e-mail offering to help plan our recent trip to Argentina which included two families, 5 young adults ranging in age from 20 – 27 and three different schedules arriving and departing over a two week period. She managed to coordinate our complicated schedules seamlessly ensuring that we all saw the best of Argentina.
She assisted with all our arrangements ranging from travel, hotel, restaurants and even New Year’s Eve! She was available for last minute questions or situations that arose while we were on the trip, enabling us to enjoy our vacation knowing she was just a phone call or e-mail away.

Analia was extremely knowledgeable. She responded to our questions and concerns immediately. She followed up with us during the trip. She was always pleasant and did not get flustered or upset if we changed plans. Our trip was very complicated with many people coming and going at different times, she kept the whole trip organized with spreadsheets etc. Overall I would recommend her highly and will use her again.

We just returned from a two week trip to Peru, Argentina and Brazil and are so grateful we found Eureka Travel! Our trip was very last minute and Analia (owner) was prompt and efficient in helping us quickly put together all of the details. She managed to organize everything we wanted and more. Once on the trip, we felt so comfortable with all the arrangements which made it even easier to have a fabulous vacation. Can't say enough great things about our experience!
Lena & Chris travelled to Peru, Argentina & Brazil in August 2009.
Happy New Year Analia!
We had a fabulous cruise from Santiago to Buenos Aires...
Our trip to Iguazu Falls was fabulous - the guide was great - we saw everything we wanted.
It was very hot & humid & I don't do well in the heat so one day was good enough for me & we were very satisfied.
All in all as far as Eureka Travel goes - I would highly recommend you to anyone or use you again if I ever return to Argentina or Chile (which I would like to do). Your service was excellent. The guide you provided was excellent, very informative, punctual & was so patient with us slugging along in the hot humid air.
Thank you again & one day I would like to return to South America & explore some of the areas closer to the mountains. If I do I will definitely use your services.

Traveled to Iguazu falls in December 2010
Eureka Travel planned our 50th anniversary trip to Buenos Aires and the falls at Iguazu. The cost was right in our price range. The thing that pleased me most was that they planned all the connections between airport, bus station, tours. There was a person who met us at all the points with a sign with our name. We didn't have to worry about the language, since the person that met us spoke English and Spanish. The person in Buenos Aires gave us a letter with her name and phone number, in case we needed help while we were there. The same in Iguazu.The tours they scheduled were excellent and gave us a good overview of Buenos Aires and took us to the beautiful places in Iguazu. The hotels were very nice for a 3*. Analia answered all our questions before hand and gave us good detail on all our plans. I don't think my husband and I could have made all the connections, reservations on our own. It made for a very enjoyable, relaxing & wonderful trip.

Thank You, Ana, for planning a perfect trip for us. We can`t stop talking about it: how all the connections went smoothly; how your attention to detail was so obvious; how much fun we had; what nice people we met. I made sure that Tauck was made aware of what you did for us. Not a single problem. Your part of the trip was just as professional and flawless as Tauck who has been at this for lots of years.

Analia and Eureka travel are the best when traveling in South America.
My wife and I traveled in Argentina, Chile and Peru (Machu Picchu) with her help. We even had the wonderful opportunity to stay with her parents in Bariloche, Argentina.
Ana was always available for us before and during our trip if there were small glitches that came up.
We give Eureka Travel our highest recommendation.
