Why take this tour?
Explore the places in Punta Arenas where Antarctic History was made.
Travel along the coast to a historic warehouse turned museum, where one-of-a-kind artifacts will introduce you to the fauna of the Strait. On the way back, look out for whales and dolphins at a forgotten pier which once welcomed Antarctic survivors back to the comforts of civilization.
Feel the creak of wooden decks beneath your feet and the sea wind on your face as you walk aboard life-sized recreations of famous ships. Peer behind the scenes at the lives of the men and women aboard the ships, who risked everything to brave the Strait of Magellan.
Follow the trail of historic clues back to Punta Arenas’s downtown core, discovering the Antarctic History that surrounds the city.
Finish your tour with tapas and tastings of local traditional food with a gourmet twist, paired with a tasting of locally made beer, cocktails, or fresh juices.
