Avanti Destinations

OFFER ID 1243705

Lake District Crossing
The spectacular Lake District of Argentina and Chile ranks as one of the top attractions in South America. It is a lovely region of blue lakes, rivers, waterfalls, dense green forests, and snow-covered volcanoes. Overnight in the picturesque mountain town of Bariloche, in the heart of the Lake District, on the shores of Lake Nahuel Huapi, before crossing into Chile. The full day crossing is a land and water combination, ending in the small Chilean town of Puerto Varas, located 13 miles north of Puerto Montt, on the southern shore of Lake Llanquihue. The architecture of the town is uniquely European, and reflects its German colonization. If you have time, allow extra days to explore both Bariloche and Puerto Varas.
