A taste of Patagonia - Absolutely a wonderful day! Mateo was our guide and he was such a pleasure to tour with. He has such knowledge and passion for nature and showed and spoke about so many things that was fascinating. After the hike through the Patagonia Park we were treated to a wonderful lunch with Chilean dancers, drinks and fun! A must on your travel itinerary.

Chilean Countryside and German-inspired Villages - This was a nice excursion into the countryside with a couple of stops in smaller towns. The guide, Eric, made the trip. He was informative, friendly, and enthusiastic. The falls were the best part of the excursion and we were fortunate to have great weather so could see the volcanos later in the day. The lunch was so appropriate…empanadas and Chilean wine. We did not go into a German museum, I missed the explanation as to why but the day was full.

Lovely excursion with great guide and driver - The day provided a wonderful experience. Our guide, Emiliana, was fluent in English and provided a wealth of information on the area. With our excellent driver, George, they made a great team. Emiliana gave us recommendations at our stops for shopping at eating. The falls were the highlight of the excursion and we were given ample time to explore. The lunch stop, consisting of empanadas, homemade by George, and wine, were quite tasty. Arrived back in port an hour before last tender. Overall a great experience. We recommend it to all.

Great adventure in Puerto Montt - Great itinerary and beautiful scenery. We were lucky the clouds lifted enough to see both volcanoes covered in snow. Specially Volcano Osorno which resembles Mount Fuji. Full marks to our guide Javiera whose English was excellent and very knowledgeable about the area history and local customs.

Lovely tour with personable guide who had excellent English speaking ability. - Really enjoyed the first two stops: Petrohue Waterfalls and Puerto Varas. I wish we had more time than the 45 minutes allotted at each stop. Javiera was a great guide. She was very personable and spoke English very well. The stop with the wine and empanada was a nice touch.

Great Day out from Puerto Montt. - This excursion was very well run by Eric our guide. He was passionate and well informed about our destinations. The locations were interesting, amazing and beautiful. Lakes, cascades and volcanoes what’s not to like here. The bus was a bit old but it run fairly well. The group size was good, not too small and not too big.
