Overview

This journey takes you to one of Patagonia’s most breathtaking natural wonders — the Marble Chapels Nature Sanctuary, a National Monument of Chile.

Formed over thousands of years by the glacial waters of General Carrera Lake, these striking marble caves and formations glow in shades of blue, white, and gray as sunlight reflects off the turquoise water. The result is a surreal, dreamlike landscape that feels like stepping into a work of art sculpted by nature itself.

As we travel along the legendary Carretera Austral, you’ll witness forests, rivers, and mountains that showcase the pristine beauty of the Aysén Region. Once in Puerto Río Tranquilo, we’ll navigate across the lake to explore the famous Marble Cathedral, Marble Chapels, and Marble Caverns up close — an experience that will stay with you forever.

After the boat tour, enjoy a delicious lunch included in a local restaurant before beginning the scenic return journey to Coyhaique.
