Day 1: Departure from Puerto Natales, Pehoé Catamaran and Grey Lookout Trek (22 km, 8 to 9 hours).

The beginning of this activity will be in the Puerto Natales Bus Station to take the bus that will take you to Pudeto. In that place, you will board the catamaran to cross the Pehoé Lake, navigation that lasts around 30 minutes and that will give you the first views of the Paine Massif and the Cuernos del Paine. You will disembark in the Paine Grande Area, where you will start walking through a gorge, after what you will see the Grey Lake and the first images of the Grey Glacier. In addition, you will see the Nunatak, from where other excursions over the Grey Glacier starts. The same way, you will see the Cordón Olguín and the small icebergs detached from the glacier that float over the lake. After that, you will return to Paine Grande, where you will spend the night and rest.

 

Day 2: Pehoé Catamaran and arrival to Puerto Natales.

This day you will be able to relax a little bit with the times, but not too much because you must take the catamaran to start the navigation back though the Pehoé Lake. You will have the privileged views of the Torres del Paine National Park again, if the weather allows it, and you will reach the Pudeto area, where you will take the bus back to the Puerto Natales Bus Station, where the activity ends.

Very flexible booking as I accidently chose the morning tour when I wanted the afternoon. They accommodated me without any issues. I was also the only one on the tour, so it's nice to see that they will still take a single person out, when many agencies won't do that.
