Punta Arenas Town and Forest Reserve Tour - This is a nice tour around the Punta Arenas area. It includes a peaceful and informative hike through the beautiful forest preserve close to town (about 2 hours) and an informative tour through town.
Our guide Nicolas was a very fun and amazing young man. A source of many local stories (Ghost & otherwise), and a learned study of local politics and history.
We enjoyed the tour and the discussions with Nicolas very much.
Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for a look at the local Punta Arenas area and some great talks about the local history!

A perfect guide and a beautiful hike - We had the perfect guide with Nicolas. He was able to tell many interesting stories about the past and present and accompanied us on a beautiful hike through the national park. In a small group of four it was a very successful trip from the ship. After that we could still see the city.

A knowledgeable tour guide - We started with visiting cemetery, which was quite unique and interesting. Nicolas was able to give a good overview of the history and a walking tour. This history helps to understand the history of the city.Â
Next we went to the National Forest Reserve and hiked to 2 viewpoints for about 2 hours. We saw a number of different birds and Nicolas was well-informed about the trees unique to this area. Nicolas arranged our schedule to avoid rain which started after the hike.Â
We enjoyed the details that Nicolas shared so we learned about unique aspects of Punto Arenas and surroundings. From the beginning when he picked us up on time through the whole tour he made sure the tour was interesting to us and a good value.

Great tour of the area on a short amount of time. - The tour of Nicholas home in Puenta Arenas was very nice. Some confusion when we had to change from small group to private but didn’t mind paying $50 more at all. Didn’t care for the organizer tour agent demanding we get to their tour asap. We got #19 in a tender boat slip and had to explain over and over that we have NO control of when the ship starts tender operations or how many suite guest can get off before us. Communicated every moment of the way but she should understand we couldn’t go any faster. Anyway Nicholas and driver waiting for us as we came off the dock and away we went to the National Park. Nicholas was very informative and listen well to our needs. We picked a trail that older persons could manage very easily and he gave us a lot of knowledge about the flora and fauna. The area was beautiful and offered great views back toward the city. We then drove around the area & town. We stopped where we wished for pictures then went to their huge cities cemetery and walked the area. All the time Nicolás explained their culture and values.
He dropped us off in town where we requested & gave us instructions how to walk back to the ship. It was an enjoyable visit.

Great at the reserve. Nice Trek. - The trek in the park was fabulous. The City tour was kind of a wing and a prayer. Not organized or thought out. The driver seemed in prepared. The Guide knew his stuff.

Disappointing experience for the National Reserve tour - We have used TripAdvisor 17 times, many in the last year alone, this was completely botched by the operator. After waiting an hour for a no-show pickup, we found an email sent late the night before rescheduling the 8:30 pickup to 10, which completely messed up our day plans. We called at 10:10 when still a no-show, and were told our trip was moved to 11 for their convenience! So we left on our own city tour, missing a trip to the reserve we really wanted to go on, and then later had the operator state he showed up at 10:30. Never before had a poor experience like this with TripAdvisor.
