Just leaving Chacabuco NOW. Excursion was fine, even today, New Year.

Van could hold 15 easily. Only hang up we were only 7 people. We offered $40.00 PP to leave, they came back $45. We settled at $40, but tips to pay the 16 year old guide. Had a great tour, superior to the ship's at half the price.

 

I owe OP a beer some day.

I don't know if this will help anyone on this thread, but our cruise stopped in Puerto Chacabuco this past January, and I can give you our experience. I had read that its important to get off the ship asap if you want a private tour. Based on the info I had, we caught one of the first tenders, and our group of 8 walked up the short hill from the tender pier to the store where we found at least 20 cab and van operators offering their vehicles for private tours. They all offered basically the same tour....3-4 hours into Simpson Valley, with stops at scenic locations including Bride's Veil Cascade, the suspension bridge, an ancient but scenic wooden bridge, etc. All the operators had signs explaining their services. None spoke very good English, but as long as they would get us to the highlights, it didn't really matter that much....I can get details on what we saw online. We had no problem finding a van operator for our group of 8....and we had a driver and a "guide"....again, neither could speak much English. I think we paid roughly $35US pp.

 

 

 

Hope that helps,

 

Sam

 

 

 

Thank you for the detailed information. I was hoping we could get a cab tour.
