Seat-in-bus tours along the Carretera Austral

We are happy to offer two attractive seat-in-bus tours with guaranteed departures and English-speaking guides for guests interested in joining guided groups along the Carretera Austral:

On the “Northern Carretera Austral” tour (5 days/4 nights), guests will explore the marvellous surroundings of Coyhaique. It begins with a horse riding excursion through the pristine forest which, from day one, will make your clients forget about the rest of world. Day two includes a panorama tour through beautiful mountain landscapes along the Puyuhuapi Fjord, to the pioneer settlement of Puyuhuapi and onwards to La Junta. Day three offers both adventure and relaxing: start with a rafting excursion on Rio Palena and later continue on for a visit to the El Sauce hot springs. Day four is the highlight of the tour, when guests get to see the hanging glacier of Queulat in Queulat National Park. The last day includes time for strolling through Coyhaique before returning to the airport.

The “Southern Carretera Austral” tour (5 days/4 nights) concentrates on the breath-taking area around Lake General Carrera. Day one starts right away with a highlight – a boat excursion to the Capilla de Marmol. The next day, guests can explore the beautiful Tamango Natural Reserve during a hike. The third day is also about hiking, this time through the pristine “Exploradores” valley, which offers stunning views of the Exploradores glacier. The journey ends with a horse riding excursion before returning to the airport.

Departures are every second Tuesday (northern route) and every second Saturday (southern route). During January and February, departures are every Tuesday / every Saturday. If you are interested in booking those tours for your clients, please contact your travelArt sales partner.
