Grey Glacier Boat Tour from Puerto Natales
The Grey Glacier Boat Tour is the only boat excursion within Torres del Paine that takes you across the stunning waters of Lake Grey aboard the GREY III, offering front-row views of one of Patagonia’s most breathtaking natural wonders: the Grey Glacier.
Your journey begins with convenient pickup from your hotel in Puerto Natales. After arriving in the national park, you’ll enjoy a scenic 45-minute walk along the shores of Lake Grey, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes. Then, it’s time to board the boat and set off toward the glacier.
As you cruise across the lake, you’ll pass icebergs that have calved from the glacier itself—each one uniquely shaped and glowing with shades of blue. The boat will take you right up close to the towering glacier wall, giving you the perfect vantage point to witness the power and beauty of this iconic Patagonian giant.
And yes—there’s even a complimentary pisco sour served on board, so you can raise a glass with the glacier as your backdrop.
