Tourism Agency in Puerto Natales | Patagonia | Torres del Paine

A spectacular boat trip that you can’t miss during your stay in Puerto Natales.

We will take you through pristine fjords to see millenary glaciers. During the trip you will be able to enjoy the lush Chilean channels’ landscapes: islands, waterfalls, native vegetation and wildlife. We will visit glaciers Balmaceda and Serrano at Bernardo O’Higgins National Park. Glacier Balmaceda is a magnificent hanging glacier that will be seen from the boat. Glacier Serrano, also on Mount Balmaceda, is a blue calving glacier on a small lake, and that you can see from a short distance after hiking along a beautiful path.

Back on the boat you can have a whisky with glacier ice before we get off again at a lovely estancia to have a typical Magellanic lunch. Finally we will resume our trip back to Puerto Natales.
