We took the 7 lakes tour from Bariloche to San Martin de los Andes. The van picks you up at your hotel and brings you back. It’s a 9 hour tour from point to point. The van is for 10-12 people. After 1 1/2 hrs we stopped in a small Swiss style town for a 1/2 hr break. All buses stop here too. Then you proceed on the road and stop at an overview of each lake. It was a clear sunny morning and the views were beautiful. The lakes are huge and at a distance. You eventually arrive at San Martin de Los Angeles for about 2 hrs for lunch, shopping, or walking.
San Martin is a Swiss style town with many restaurants and shops and flat surface walking. It is on the coast of the 7th lake. We enjoyed being able to stretch our legs and walk.
