Itinéraire
Nous commencerons la prise en charge à Puerto Varas vers 08h00.
Nous continuerons la prise en charge à Puerto Montt jusqu'à 8h45, puis continuerons le voyage le long de la célèbre route panaméricaine jusqu'à la ville de Pargua, où nous embarquerons sur un ferry qui nous emmènera à Chacao.
De cet endroit, nous embarquerons sur un ferry pour naviguer à travers le canal de Chacao, qui sépare le continent de l'Isla Grande de Chiloé. Pendant la navigation (45 minutes) nous pourrons observer des otaries, des pélicans et des oiseaux marins typiques de cette région.
Nous accosterons à la ville de Chacao, l'une des plus anciennes de l'île, fondée en 1567. Elle possède une Plaza de Armas où l'on peut apprécier les constructions typiques en bois de mélèze et voir également l'église de San Antonio de Chacao.
Arrivée à Quemchi, où nous pourrons visiter sa belle Costanera, que l'écrivain Francisco Coloane a baptisée la commune aux 1000 paysages. Plus tard, nous irons dans un endroit merveilleux; Aucar, l'île des âmes navigantes dans laquelle on peut entrer par un pont en bois de 430 mètres.
Plus tard, nous nous dirigerons vers Dalcahue (une ville située en face de l'île de Quinchao) et qui, sur son front de mer, abrite un marché gastronomique et artisanal avec une vue spectaculaire. Nous visiterons la Foire et marcherons jusqu'à l'église Nuestra Señora De Los Dolores, une construction typique de Chilote qui fait partie du site du patrimoine mondial.
Plus tard, nous continuerons notre voyage vers la ville de Castro, capitale de l'Isla Grande de Chiloé ; en faisant un arrêt pour prendre des photos dans les Palafitos (maisons où les piliers sont disposés sur l'eau), nous visiterons l'église de San Francisco en face de la place de la ville et son marché artisanal.
Dans l'après-midi, après cette incroyable visite, nous retournerons à Puerto Varas vers 18 heures.

A very good overview of land and people, Chiloe and nature. A cautious bus driver and an enthusiastic guide whose English was sometimes difficult to understand.
Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed learning about Chiloé, its people, and its beautiful natural surroundings. We're also pleased that you felt comfortable with the driver's careful service. We appreciate your comments regarding the guide's English and will take them into consideration as we continue working to improve our guests' experience. We hope to welcome you again in the future!
It is a very beautiful tour, with beautiful landscapes the guide Mauricio was excellent. I loved to know the UNESCO heritage wooden churches. Only I do not give maximum score because I felt deceived by Viator. They told me the value of 2 people to ensure the tour and when I did the tour there were more people.... When I reported I was given an indication for me to contact the operator! After that I was refunded in only 1/3 and not in 1/2 of what I had paid
Thank you for your review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful landscapes, the UNESCO wooden churches, and that Mauricio made your experience even more special. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the booking and refund process. While reservation management is handled through the booking platform, we're glad the situation was at least partially resolved. We hope to welcome you again on another adventure in Chile!
Island has its charms. But there is a long time of displacement, exploring little attractions (surface)
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the island's unique charm. We understand that the travel time may feel long, and we appreciate your comments regarding the pace of the tour. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to welcome you again in the future!
This trip involves 8hrs in a bus for only 2hrs of sight seeing (couple of short visits) and a lunch (extra cost). The towns visited didn’t have much to offer part from the boat trip to see houses on stilts at Castro (extra cost not included in trip cost). The roads were busy and Chiloe island road has been badly damaged by trucks so not nice drive. Only positive is guide was good and had good interaction with the guests.
Thank you for sharing your experience on our Chiloé Island tour. We greatly value your comments, as they help us to better understand the expectations of our travelers. We sincerely regret that the perceived bus travel time did not match the time spent sightseeing according to your expectations. We design our tours to provide an overview of the region, including transfers between different points of interest which can sometimes involve longer journeys due to geographical distances and road conditions on the island. We note your observation about the attractiveness of the towns visited. The beauty of Chiloé lies in its cultural uniqueness, traditional architecture and natural landscapes, aspects that we try to highlight in our tour. We understand that preferences may vary and that perhaps the towns visited did not offer what you expected to find. Regarding the boat excursion in Castro, it is indeed offered as an optional activity at an additional cost, which is specified in our tour description. We seek to offer flexibility to our passengers so that they can choose the activities that interest them most. We are sorry to hear of your experience with road conditions and traffic, factors beyond our direct control but which we understand can affect the comfort of the trip. We are very happy to hear that the guide was up to standard and that his interaction with the guests was positive. We strive to have professional and enthusiastic guides to enrich our travelers' experience. We thank you again for your constructive feedback. We will take it into account to review and optimize our future tours on Chiloé Island, seeking a better balance between transfer times and destination exploration.
Very beautiful and picturesque localiad, very good offer of restaurants and hotels. Coast to the lake as if for hiking. The whole commercial part is very well presented.Ideal complement the whole visit to the waterfall with a very beautiful road in landscapes overlooking the Osorno volcano
¡Muchas gracias por su comentario! Nos alegra saber que disfrutó de los hermosos paisajes, la costanera, la oferta gastronómica y las impresionantes vistas al Volcán Osorno. Esperamos tener el placer de recibirle nuevamente en una próxima aventura.
This is a full day with lots of travel. We visited four towns and probably could have got away with just two as many are so similar it’s difficult to tell them apart. The artisan fairs sell the same products in each town so if you visit one of the larger fairs you’ll have seen what’s on offer. Would have liked to have more free time to roam two towns rather than have four 10-30 minute stops. Still learned a lot a out the area and had a wonderful time seeing what we could in the brief time we were in towns. Lunch was good except for the chicken soup which was watery with few carrot pieces and a spoonful of rice. The main dish offerings were enjoyed by all and the chefs were flexible and accommodating for allergies. The ferry crossing of Chacao channel was one of my favourite parts of the tour and our guide Carlos was fantastic!
Thank you for your detailed feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoyed the experience, especially the ferry crossing, the local culture, and Carlos' guiding throughout the day. We also appreciate your comments regarding the itinerary pace and meal service, as they help us continue improving our tours. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to welcome you again in the future!
Had a good trip with the guide, Jorge, and the driver, Klaus. Jorge is really friendly and makes an effort to chat with everyone. Klaus is the reason for the smooth ride. Both are really professional and helpful during the tour! Lunch was reasonably priced, and the host at the local restaurant is super hospitable! The scenery is definitely worth a visit!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that Jorge and Klaus helped make your experience so enjoyable. We'll be sure to share your kind words with them. It's great to know you enjoyed the scenery, the lunch, and the warm hospitality along the way. We hope to welcome you again on another adventure soon!
