15 Full-Day Tours in Puerto Natales Worth the Day

1.Torres del Paine Full Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 434 reviews · 16 hours · from $229Our pick

Travel from El Calafate into Chile with bilingual guides such as Carla, Matías, Natalia, or Silvestre. Expect a long but well-organized bus ride, border formalities, boxed lunch, several viewpoints, and an easy 1.5-hour walk beside Lake Nordenskjöld. The park scenery is spectacular, but you will spend much of the day on the road.

“Daytrip was very okay. Guide was super. Only what bothers is the high price. We paid 180$ each person only for the transport and lunch because the ticket you have to buy yourselves. We were with a large group (30 people) so 5400$ the company earned that day. I think this can cheaper.”

Luckily there was one person on the bus who spoke English and he was very helpful. The bilingual guide was picked up…”

I booked this more expensive tour because it said small group of 10 people max. we were 40 in a small cramped bus for 17 hours. all the tours 1 day torres del paine are with another company, so this is just an agency booking the bus for you. I don't recommend booking with them they charge more for the same thing and are wrongly describing the tour! the seats in the bus are very small, we were 2 normal sized adults. because it is a large group everything takes longer.”
