Itinerary

Later, you will be part of a unique show, you will be able to appreciate the peculiar Magellanic dolphins of Guanaco Island called "tonina" dolphins, very similar to orcas but smaller.

Thus we will be closer and closer to the Balmaceda mountain where we will see the glacier that bears the same name, we will also visit the Tempanos Lagoon and later, the Serrano glacier.
