Established by German immigrants in 1853, this is now the key port, transit and business hub of the Lakes District – a good place to replenish supplies, pick up Chilean crafts and get an urban jolt before moving on to more pristine pastures. If you're in the mood to sample some of the famous local salmon, the Angelmo harbor market should be your first stop. From there, it's a short boat ride across to Tenglo Island for views of snow-capped volcanic peaks. Santiago is a two-hour flight away.

Met on time at port with professional guide Ronald, and had pretty extensive half day tour of neighborhoods in and around Puertos Montt and Veras. Just my wife and I toured. Guide stopped at cafe overlooking lake Llanquihue and volcanos. Had nice Strudel and coffee and treated guide also. Visited both upscale and lower neighborhoods around both towns. We both thought this tour was very worthwhile and did it as a shore excursion from our cruise ship so we appreciated the return guarantee from trip advisor although we were back in plenty of time.

Spent a very enjoyable day exploring the sights with Miguel. The bus was very clean and comfortable and also had free wi-fi. Our driver was excellent, we felt very safe, even on the winding roads up to the volcano. Miguel was very knowledgeable and personable. He even had a bottle of water and a traditional Chilean pastry for everyone! He gave us great restaurant recommendations in Puerto Vargas. This tour was half the price of the same tour offered by our cruise line. Fantastic value! Highly recommend!

Located in the Vicente Pérez Rosales National Park, Petrohué River delights with its rapids. After a violent eruption of the Osorno Volcano, basaltic material gave rise to this attraction that runs through the evergreen forest. The Osorno Volcano is part of National Park and its height is 2650 meters. A complete panoramic view of Lake Llanquihue Lake and part of the Andes is possible in a sunny day. The vehicle reaches an altitude of 1,200 meters on asphalted road where there is a cafeteria and ski center. In addition, it is possible to reach 1400 meters by liftchairs. Puerto Varas is considered the tourist capital of southern Chile. The peaceful life of streets, visitors and locals enjoy the beautiful view and its surroundings. Influenced by the German colonization and the perfect fusion with Spaniards and Chileans, they transform it into one of the most attractive cities of our region.

I had no idea that we'd find opera house on a small town, Fruitillar, on the beautiful Lake Llanquihue in northern Patagonia Chile .Exterior clad with vertical planks in different colors = gorgeous on the inside too with much attention paid to acoustics. Too bad we couldn't stay to see a perofmance.

We drove around the entire perimeter of Lake Llanquihue with Giancarlo, stopping at Puerto Varas, the green lagoon, waterfalls and Frutillar. Giancarlo is a knowledgeable and considerate guide and driver. His English is excellent. I only wish we had more time to spend in this beautiful place.

The road to the top takes you through some small communities (picturesque) and then winding up the mountain with beauty all around. At the top, hiking enthusiasts can take a short, strenuous hike (about 40 minutes round trip.) No trees--just rocks and ice and a restaurant and shop and restrooms.
