Beautiful experience!! - The tour to Chiloé was very nice. The landscapes and places we could know are must-see stops in Chile. It's definitely the cutest thing in the South. It wouldn't have been the same without our guide Carlos. He made the path and the adventure fun and relaxed, I thank him for sharing with us the history of the place and answering our questions, he allowed us to go with the music that we will like the most and talked a lot about the folklore of the Island and Puerto Varas. It definitely enlivened the trip as few do. We were very lucky to have him as our guide. The place he took us to eat was also delicious. I recommend this tour 100%!! Greetings from Mexico.

Don't miss Punihuil when on Chiloe Island - Short boat ride from the beach, but plenty to see. Loads of wildlife. Penguins are the star, both Magellenic and Humboldt, but plenty of other birds to see. Definitely worth the stop. Plenty of restaurants on the beach for a meal.
