Top Punta Arenas Tours, Tickets & Activities

Gerardo and Phillips were wonderful. So informative and fun to be with. Loved every minute.

Our guide and driver were fantastic! Our guide took us to the normal highlights, but also to some of the out-of-the-way places that have really stuck in our memories. We hiked on trails through wind shaped forests and down paths along the shore of the Magellan Straights. The restaurant he took us to for lunch over looked the Straight of Magellan and the food and cold refreshments were so good. We saw a lot in only 5 hours. Highly recommend this excursion.

We did the private half day forest hike on new year's day. It was a very nice experience. We got to hike a part of Punta Arenas we wouldn't have gotten to without Manuel. The hike was about 3 miles total, with some short uphill stretches but because it's a private tour we were able to go at our own relaxed pace. We got to the top and sat for a snack (provided by our guide) while enjoying the beautiful views. All along the way Manuel shared valuable information about the regions history, customs, and nature. We then stopped for lunch at a local restaurant (also covered by our guide). This was overall a wonderful experience that we would highly recommend!

This was the best hike tour I've ever been on. Not only were Manny and Jamie so incredibly amiable and knowledgeable - they were caring and attentive as well. Don't forget to ask them how they met, it's a story as lovely as the hike. Can't thank them enough for the wonderful experience!

Comprehensive and informative tour of Punta Arenas. Geraldo is an excellent tour guide. His love of the area and its history is evident.

We had a fabulous day with Gerardo in and around Punta Arenas; I had some specific requests and he accommodated everything we wanted to see. He was fun to hang out with and very informative. This was supposed to be a group tour but no one else booked; Gerardo reached out to me and offered us the tour anyway and we were happy to accept. We really enjoyed the day.

Jamie was waiting for me at the cruise port with a sign. She informed me that I had booked a private guided hike which was news to me. So happy that it was but in looking over the booking, the word “private” is not in there. I was not disappointed that it was a private tour but pointing it out so Jamie knows. I think more people would book her tour if they knew it was private. I couldn’t be happier with my choice. Jamie is warm, friendly, knowledgeable and a very positive person. She supported me throughout the hike and made me happy. Her background in biology and birds and her love of nature were other pluses. We engaged in forest bathing and were blessed with a wonderful peaceful experience. So much better than the 2 large buses that we met coming in on our way out. She came equipped with walking sticks and wonderful local snacks. After a hike, Jamie brought me to a wonderful local restaurant were I experienced local seafood and pisco sour! I haven’t received my photos that Jamie took but I am hopeful that she will find me and send them. They would be a wonderful additional memory of my great day in the Patagonia forest!

I took a very informative hike with Manuel. The day was very, very windy and he suggested an alternate hike that was safer. I am glad that he did as I had heard from hikers earlier that with high winds the original route could get dangerous. We hiked through the forest and Manual knew the horticulture and the history of the area and this made the hike very special. We did hike to the top of the hill and stood in the wind and surveyed the mountains surrounding Punta Arenas. After the hike we had a wonderful lunch at one of the local restaurants that I might not have ordered for myself but was very good. A very enjoyable day.

Cristian and Cristóbal showed us fascinating and lovely places around the city of Punta Arenas and drove us to the Fuerte Bulnes. Both our guides were from the area and told us many stories about the history of the buildings and landmarks, so we feel we got to know Patagonia a little better. They were kind enough to take us on the tour on New Year's Day, plus they arranged a delicious lunch of empanadas with king crab. Our guides were super friendly and kind, and we enjoyed our time with them so much. We highly recommend this tour company, you will be in excellent hands.

You want to see the city and not miss a spot..this is the tour. There is so much history and boy the island and food. Thank you Girardo for making our day bright and sunny. The walk to the shore and also the comfort of driving around and seeing Punta Arenas. Thank you.

Simple tour but show everything you need to know about Punta Arenas. Pretty economical and very friendly staff.

We were told there is absolutely nothing to see except penguins. Well, we wished to see just the penguins! Well, it was such an exciting thrilling experience! BUT…BUT…we found an extremely vibrant city with bustling bazaars and cafes and such an air of joyous atmosphere! Incredibly fun! And we found a Hindu temple which was closed but more than that we found three statues of Mahatma Gandhi, Rabindranath Tagore and Mother Theresa….one finds statues of Gandhi but of the other two! We loved the city for the cheerful and truly HAPPY air about it and loved it because it was so very unexpected!!! Actually, we loved Chile and we loved the people of Chile …wherever we went, whatever we did…be it Valparaiso, Attacama, Santiago or Patagonia! …and totally crime free, super efficient officials and flawless management! Friendly and helpful! If one could learn Spanish and settle down there! Would be Bliss!

We were fortunate to have the owner, Gerardo, as our guide for the day. There was a long delay with the tenders due to rough seas but Gerardo made sure we still got to see everything without feeling rushed. He was very knowledgeable on things in nature (pointing out different plants and their links/usage with early settlers), the history of the area and showed us unique local places that other tours don’t visit. The boat museum was a highlight. A wealth of knowledge and a man proud of his heritage.

Having a private guide and driver allowed us to gather so much more information about the region. We could tell how much our guide loved her home area.

This was a great day out with Juan, who is the most passionate and entertaining guide. His knowledge of the history, flora and fauna of the area and his love of the area was captivating. Empanadas and red wine in a roadside cafe, in a hut in a howling gale in the edge of the continent was a memory I will keep forever.Additionally I felt absolutely confident that I would return in time for all aboard.

Interesting visit to Port Bulnes on the Straits of Magellan. Not too much to see in Punta Arenas. Nice atmosphere in the square with statue of Magellan. Very friendly guide, Christian and driver Filipe. Probably a bit expensive for what it was.
