A friend and I booked a two week trip in Northern Patagonia with Udi and had an awesome time. We managed to ski some awesome lines and had some great adventures which wouldn't have been possible without Udi. His knowledge of which objectives were in condition and when to go was awesome and we managed to achieve more in two weeks than some do in two weeks. There is no doubt that in this part of the world safety is key, and Udi was super knowledgable and made us feel well protected always. On top of all of this, outside of skiing he was incredibly approachable, friendly and fielded my never ending questions about his part of the world. Fully recommend Udi to anyone journeying down south.

I have done four separate trips to Patagonia with Udi, from Andes to Los Lagos volcano regions to El Chalten. He's an awesome guide, very willing to adapt, to drive 12h for a small weather window or to try an adventurous far away mountain and demanding ski lines. He also takes his responsibility as a guide very seriously and ensures there's a good safety margin. Overall I would thoroughly recommend Udi & Patagonia Alpine guides for the best Patagonia ski mountaineering experience off the beaten track!

Training for alpinism and attempting to summit Mont Blanc is no small feat, and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Augustin to lead me through this journey. From the very beginning, Augustin demonstrated not only deep technical expertise but also a genuine commitment to helping me grow as a mountaineer. His approach to training was thoughtful and personalized. Augustin took the time to assess my skills, build a solid foundation in alpine techniques, and progressively challenge me and my skills. Whether it was glacier travel, rope work, or crampon skills, his instruction was clear, patient, and always rooted in best practices. Beyond his technical abilities, Augustin brings a rare warmth and authenticity to his role. He’s not just a guide—he’s a mentor, a motivator, and someone who truly cares about your experience in the mountains. Thanks to Augustin, I not only made significant progress in my alpinism training but also had an unforgettable experience in the Alps. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone seeking a brilliant guide.
