Comment

Modesta Victoria is a historical passenger ship which travels on the Nahuel Huapi Lake since 1939.

Personalities such as Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Che Guevara, Dwight Eisenhower, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi (Shah of Iran)
and his wife Farah Diba have traveled aboard Modesta Victoria.

She usually makes excursions from Puerto Pañuelo (near Bariloche) to Bosque de Arrayanes and Isla Victoria.

The ship has a museum where you can appreciate this medal.
