Highlights
  • Puerto Natales - We pick you up by minibus at your accommodation in Puerto Natales to start the tour and head towards the famous Torres del Paine National Park, a journey of approximately two hours. We will access the park through the area of Portería Laguna Amarga, from where you can enjoy excellent views of the Torres del Paine.
  • Torres del Paine National Park - We begin our tour through the roads of Torres del Paine National Park. From the comfort of the minibus, you will be able to observe its particular and unique Patagonian steppe as you enter the park. In addition, throughout the tour, you will be amazed by the breathtaking views of the great Macizo Paine.
  • Torres del Paine National Park - Keeping on the tour, we will stop at the most famous viewpoints of Torres del Paine: Sarmiento Lake Viewpoint, Laguna Amarga Viewpoint, and Noderhold Lake Viewpoint. Each viewpoint offers very different landscapes of the different ecosystems of the park.

Once we arrive at the Camping Pehoé sector, we will stop for lunch with your group and the guides, enjoying a beautiful view of Lake Pehoé and the Cuernos del Paine.

  • Glacier Grey - We arrive at the Grey Glacier, and it is time to walk. During approximately one hour, we will cross the old Lenga Forest until we reach the shore of Grey Lake. Advancing along the beach, we will be able to enjoy the different shades of blue of the Grey Glacier ice, which comes from the Southern Patagonian Ice Field.

  • Cueva del Milodon - We begin our return through the Portería Serrano sector to Puerto Natales, although this is not the end of the tour. Before finishing the Torres del Paine Day tour, you will have the opportunity to visit one of the greatest curiosities of the park, the Milodon Cave Natural Monument.

This cave is famous for being the place where the remains of an extinct species of large herbivorous mammals were found, a species endemic to Patagonia and related to the current sloth bear.

  • Puerto Natales - Once the visit to the Milodon Cave is over, we will return to the town of Puerto Natales arriving between 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM. With this, we will put an end to our Tour Full Day Torres del Paine and this intense but fantastic day.

Good one day experience of Torres del Paine! - The guide Max was very knowledgeable and gave us good information and insights into the Torres del Paine ecosystem. Was a long day and bumpy drive but the tour covered all the main attractions of TDP. The Milodon Cave part we only visited the main cave, but feel that at least one of the 2 smaller caves could also have been easily included in the tour. The van was a bit cramped and given the long drive of over 10 hours on gravel roads a more comfortable vehicle would have been desirable.

Incredible - Super tour! Our guide Max explained everything to us and answered all our questions. Majestic and very attentive. The tour takes us through beautiful places in the park and we are eager to return and do the full walk. I think it is a super good alternative to see everything there is and in a comfortable way for those who don't know like us. They went after us to where we were staying and left us there. All perfect! Thank you very much Max and José for the tour and the sympathy!

Hope to return - Unsurpassed natural beauty. View of the iconic towers was mostly obscured due to weather. Tour guide Nicolas and the driver were great!

Worth it! - Excellent day seeing the sights, the views of the lakes are spectacular. It’s very windy so take layers and a hat. The guides (Niko) are friendly, speak English and Spanish equally well so can explain and answer questions. We got very lucky and saw a Puma! But even seeing the Guanaco, Condors and other animals were beautiful.

Great overview - This is a good overview of the park by bus with no hiking! We mainly went to lookouts which were very nice. We never saw the Towers because of the cloudy conditions which according to guides is typical! They may not be visible on the all day hike either! You can bring a lunch or they stop at a cafeteria near Lago Grey that has burgers, pizza or buffet. It was very windy! Dress in layers with hats, gloves and rain gear(not umbrellas-too windy!). There are microclimates in the park. I never had to shed my layers!

Great tour if you only have a day! - We really enjoyed out tour. We had limited time in the area, so we chose this full day tour. It was booked through Viatour, and the local tour company was WCircuitPatagonia. Our guide, Yann, was tremendous, smoothly transitioning from English to Spanish and back again. He was knowledgeable and engaging, with a great sense of humor. Our driver was Hector and he had eagle eyes, picking out various wildlife well before anyone else saw it. Altogether, a great time.!

Nice day - The guides were nice. On time. Stops were beautiful for pictures. The van seats were a bit tight so the ride could have been better.

Good tour. - Pleasant walk with Diego (guide). Responsible and motivated. They will pick you up and drop you off at the place you are staying. The tour covers specific places but it helps you know where you can go next independently.

Not a good tour leader - The scene and weather was perfect. Our tour leader was not paying attention to everyone and was walking and trekking so fast. He went so far and left behind most of the people. We were told that the forst part is flat, however it was not.. lots of up hills and down hills. Even in the very last part, he went up so fast and did not even care about other people in the tour.
