Participate on a cruise tour through the fjords and board a boat tor approach to the huge walls of ice of the 30,000 year old San Rafael Glacier and then make your a toast with scotch (or your preferred drink) and millenary ice just taken from the bay.

Finally Patagonia, at the end of the world, is a fascinating region that invites the visitor to discover the almost untouched natural beauties that still exist on the planet. Old virgin forests, wild nature, fauna and impressive natural scenery.
