Patagonia Glacier Cruise
Patagonia Glacier Cruise
We'll meet at the indicated time at Hermann Eberhard 560 and head towards the docks in Puerto Natales. There we will climb on board the boat which will take us the glaciers of Balmaceda and Serrano in the O’Higgins National Park.
The cruise cuts through the magical Patagonian landscape sprinkled with forests and hills and we head into the ‘Última Esperanza Sound’ (The Inlet of Last Hope). Here, if you look carefully, you can spot sea lions lazing on the rocks and flocks of cormorants and Andean condors.
After a 3-hour cruise along the fjord, during which you will witness a spectacular waterfall nestled among the rocks known as ‘The Virgin Sail’, we'll arrive at mount Balmaceda. The Balmaceda and Serrano glaciers cover the sides of this mountain, which rise 6500 feet above sea level.
After disembarking at the docks in Puerto Toro, we stretch our legs with a walk through the beautiful forest area to the foot of the Serrano glacier.
If you're feeling hungry, we'll stop at a local spot where you can enjoy a delicious barbeque, one of the most typical local specialties.
The tour finishes with the return journey to Puerto Natales, where we'll say our goodbyes after a total of 10 hours.
