Puerto Montt and Puerto Varas City Tour from Puerto Montt
Puerto Montt, Chile
After being picked up from your hotel you will enjoy a half-day tour in which you will visit Puerto Montt and Puerto Varas and both cities' main landmarks. You will get a panoramic view of Puerto Montt and also visit the Puerto Varas cathedral and Phillip Park.
This tour will only start from hotels and accommodation that are centrally located. It will not start from Cruiser ship or from the Puerto Montt port.
You will be picked up from your hotel in Puerto Montt and start your city tour. You will head to the highest point in order to have a panoramic view of Puerto Montt City and then visit the German Colonists monument and get the Pelluco resort.
See the Angelmó Avenue which is nationally known because of its handicrafts stands. Then, go to the fishermen´s wharf and municipal market. This portion of the tour ends at the Chinquihue resort.
Then, we take the Panamerican highway to visit Puerto Varas highlights iincluding the Cathedral, Phillipi Park and the beautiful Llanquihue lake. If the weather permits, the Osorno Volcano will be observed. This volcano feeds the Llanquihue Lake with its melting water.
We finally get the Puerto Chico resort and then go back to the hotels.
This tour provided a great opportunity to see Puerto Montt and Puerto Varas. The guide was knowledgeable, spoke English and Spanish, and showed up promptly at our hotel. However, the tour felt very rushed and our guide wanted to skip parts of Puerto Montt, and tried to make plans for us. We were only in the area for two days before heading back to Santiago when he asked us if we had seen the markets and artesian shops there, he told us the ones in Puerto Montt were all the same and not worth our time, so we should go to the town of Frutillar, which was a whole hour away. We were leaving that afternoon and didn't want to stray so far from the bus terminal, but he continued to pressure us and even said he'd drop us off at the bus station to Frutillar an hour before the tour was supposed to end. I couldn't tell if he was genuinely trying to give us advice or just get rid of us, but either way it felt unprofessional.
