Puerto Montt Puerto Montt to Bariloche and back
Posted: Mon November 9, 2009 03:11 AM UTC
Hello,
I'll be in Puerto Montt for several days before heading to Punta
Arenas. The cruise to Bariloche looks interesting but getting from
Bariloche to Punta Arenas looks like a pricey pita. I was considering
taking the cruise one way and the bus back to Puerto Montt.
Any opinions, advice?
Thanks in Advance, Jeff

Chaitén Chaiten - ferry and buses running now?
Posted: Wed February 11, 2009 04:23 PM UTC
I have heard that Chaiten was devastated by the volcano. Does anyone know if buses are still running from Chaiten to Coyhaique or Puyuhuapi or Futaleufu? How to find out the schedule? How about the ferry to Quellon or Castro? Thank you!

Puerto Montt what to do in puerto montt
Posted: Mon January 19, 2009 07:00 PM UTC
I,ll be in Puerto Montt on Feb 3 for 8 hours.

I'm hesitating between:

- osorno volcano and petrohue falls
-puerto varas, frutillar and a view of osorno and lake lianquihue
-petrohue falls and the lake district
- save some time to visit the city

I'm interested with the volcano, but considering that if I choose this tour I won't have time to do anything else, is it a good choice?

if instead I choose to go to Chiloe, would it be feasible to do it in the time frame available?

Puerto Varas Fishing in Puerto Varas
Posted: Wed January 9, 2008 09:31 PM UTC
Can anyone give some info about fly fishing in the Puerto Varas area. Is it possible to do it without a guide? Perhaps just rent a car and drive to the rivers? Or can someone recommend an inexpensive fishing guide. We really only need to be taken to the fishing location and picked up at the end of the day..

Thanks!

Puerto Montt One night in Puerto Montt or Puerto Varas?
Posted: Fri June 8, 2007 07:28 AM UTC
My wife and I arrive in Puerto Montt this June 26th, 2007 in the morning. We plan to take the two-day lake crossing tour to Bariloche on the 27th. My questions are:
1. Should we spend the one night in Puerto Montt or in Puerto Varas? We are willing to pay up to $80 or so for the one hotel night and would like a nice, convenient location for one afternoon of touring. Any suggestions for hotel/hostel?
2. If you had one afternoon to spend in the area like us, what would you do? where would you go?

Thank you for the advice.

Isla Chiloé Isla Chiloe
Posted: Fri May 11, 2007 12:59 PM UTC
My friend and I are spending one month in Argentina and Chile. The idea of visiting this island appeals to us, but is it worth the trip? How long does it take to get there from the Chilean coast, and how much would it cost us? (We would do it the cheapest way possible!) We could really only afford to spend one day there. Please advise!! :-)

Puerto Montt car rental and driving from temuco
Posted: Tue September 5, 2006 05:46 PM UTC
Hello,

i unfortunately only have 4 days for the lake district and would appreciate an advise as to whether a drive from Temuco to Puerto Montt is still meaningful in such a short time?

Also, what would be the best places to see on the way, considering the time constraints?

Finally, are there any recommended car rentals that would allow me to rent a car in Temuco and drop it off in Puerto Montt?

thanks

Isla Chiloé Visit to Chiloe
Posted: Mon February 13, 2006 03:59 AM UTC
I will have 2 days on Chiloe and want to visit Castro, Dalcahue, Chonchi and National Park Chiloe. May be also Ancud (if enough time, not sure what is better).
We will start from Puerto Montt around 10am after landing, and I plan to be in Puerto Varas next night. What is the best way to do it? Buy tour or rent car?
If yes, which operators/car agencies are the best. Should we take 4WD to visit park or regular car is ok? Where is the best place to spend night in Castro (local and cheap)?
Any other tips?

Thanks,
Dan

Región de Los Lagos Osorno Volcano Climbing
Posted: Mon February 13, 2006 12:51 AM UTC
We planned to go to 1 day trip to summit of Osorno volcano in April, but all Internet sites show that it is very expensive (150-200$ pp) and also possible in groups of 3 people only. We are 4 people.
Any ideas about operators who does it cheaper and allows larger groups?
Also, on the same night I will need to leave to Pucon. What is the best way to get there?

Thanks,
Dan
