Traveler reviews
Very Nice Trip
Trip to Osorno Volcano and Petrohue Falls was very nice, the scenary was incredible had lot of time to explore the Falls and at Osorno and boat ride in the lake though a little too windy Our driver cum guide was knowledgeable and friendly and organised. He was speaking in three different languages. He was good.
Great adventure definitely worth the time to experience this Volcano up close.
We had a great experience on our Osorno Volcano tour. We had plenty of time to take the chair lifts to the Glacier Station. Then our Driver Daimen took us to the Wooden church in Porto Varas. We also toured the Plaza De Armas at Puerto Montt before being dropped at the Fish Market to see sea lions.
Very punctual and pleasant travel
Very punctual and pleasant the trip, we visited everything calmly and with very good stories, fair stops and a lunch in Ensenada very homemade and rich.
Puerto Varas, Volcano Osorno, three lakes crossing to Argentina
We drove from Pucon to Puerto Varas on Rita 5. Recommend a detour via Puerto Octay and round the east side of Lake Llanquihue. It’s about 100km to PV but a lot of scenic stops. The best being Puerto Octay for the views and the drive up Orsorno volcano. The road to the volcano is 20km but tarmaced all the way to the chairlift. Views are stunning of the surrounding valleys and mountains. If you can, take a trip on the three lakes crossing to Argentina. The trip takes about 10 hours to Bariloche but can be done over a couple of days. Lots of options. A great way to get to Argentina.
Thank you Georges
