Chilean Fjords specifics

Does anyone have insight on or know where I can find specifics on the Chilean Fjords cruise on Norwegian (Dream, Santiago to BA). What I'm wondering is on the days cruising the fjords/channels, what are the specific points of interest. For example, is Amalia glacier one of them? Thanks.

We did a South America cruise in late 2004. We were able to see a few glaciers during that cruise, but didn't get very close to them. Still I think it is much more spectacular than the Alaska cruise that includes Glacier Bay.

 

We just returned from a cruise on the Skorpios III (a small ship that sails out of Puerto Natales, Chile). This is the way to go if you really would like to see the glaciers and fjords up close. The cruise lasts for a week and includes a day excursion to Torres del Paine. It includes a 3-hour trip in an ice breaker that gets up close to several glaciers in the Calvo fjord, a place that the cruise ships do not venture.
