Have an unforgettable experience on this cruise through a fjord in the heart of beautiful Patagonia to the glaciers of Balmaceda and Serrano. Admire some of the most breath-taking landscapes in Chile.

Patagonia Glacier Cruise

We'll meet at Hermann Eberhard 560 and head towards the docks in Puerto Natales. There we will climb on board the boat which will take us to the glaciers of Balmaceda and Serrano in O’Higgins National Park.

The cruise cuts through the Patagonian landscape sprinkled with forests and hills, heading into the ‘Última Esperanza Sound’ (The Inlet of Last Hope). Here, look for sea lions on the rocks and flocks of cormorants and Andean condors.

After a 3-hour cruise along the fjord, during which you will see a spectacular waterfall known as ‘The Virgin Sail’, we'll arrive at mount Balmaceda. The Balmaceda and Serrano glaciers cover the sides of this mountain, rising 6500 feet above sea level.

After disembarking at the docks in Puerto Toro, we will walk through the forest area to the foot of the Serrano glacier.

If you're hungry, we'll stop at a local spot for a barbeque, a typical local specialty.

The tour finishes with the return journey to Puerto Natales, where we conclude after a total of 10 hours.
