cruznqueen Posted May 17, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 17, 2018 I would like to book Solo Expeditions in Punta Arenas. I contacted them and in order to book they need our passport numbers. I have never been asked this before for any tour I have booked. Has anyone used them before and were you asked to give your number. Thanks.

Rare TiogaCruiser Posted May 18, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 18, 2018 I purchased a full package (hotels, transfers, tours and flights) from an agent in BsAs and didn’t have to supply passport info. :confused: Just curious why they would even ask for a day tour.

Rare MVPinBoynton Posted May 18, 2018 #3 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Our whole group had to send passport info for our recent visit in January. Sometimes the ports requires the tour company to have the numbers to come to the ship to pick up passengers. Solo did a great job for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shorefolks Posted May 18, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 18, 2018 By coincidence, I just came across this link moments ago after following a thread on another board.

Go ahead and book them and don't worry. Many tour operators in Chile ask for the same information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grmmybtty Posted June 21, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 21, 2018 We had a similar incident with Solo Expeditions as baskeytravels, except we were given no prior warning. We were a group of 8 who had booked the Madeleine Islands Penguin tour. We arrived at the office where we were asked to wait for clearance of the vessel. We wait, and waited, and waited. After 3 hours, we were told that the sea was too rough, so our excursion was cancelled. When we checked later with other passengers who took a similar excursion with another vendor, we found out that the water was calm and they had a good day. We wondered if they were waiting for more people, but when no one else showed up, decided it wasn’t worth their time and were not honest enough to tell us.
