Punta Arenas English Speaking Cab driver/guide
Posted: Wed January 23, 2008 05:59 PM UTC
We are three couples that will be arriving in Punta Arenas on the Celebrity Cruise line on Feb 24th. We would like to engage the services of an English speaking cab driver to take us to the interesting places. We think that we would like to visit the Braun Museums and the Maggiorino Borgatello Museum. From there we are undecided about visiting the Estancia Lolita, the Reserva Forestal Magellanes, or maybe Fuerte Bulnes, or the Cemetery. We would want the cab driver to be knowledgeable about these places as well as provide the transportation. It has been possible to find this sort of cab driver in many places throughout Europe but I am wondering if the population of Punta Arenas is large enough to support this profession and we will be successful in just walking off the ship and finding rows of such cab drivers. Can anyone shed any light on this possibility? Thanks a million. Carolyn

I don't know how much time you have for your visit to Punta Arenas, but be aware the trip to Fuerte Bulnes will take about a half day. See for more info and some pics: http://members.virtualtourist.com/vt/tfr/1/17c9c2/4/1845ec/
