★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 191 reviews · 14 hours · from $95

Review the Base of the Towers trek from Puerto Natales, with route details, fitness advice, costs, weather tips, and honest value guidance.

“Really enjoyed this hike - we were lucky and had great conditions, and also our guide Sebastian was very nice and cheerful! The other guide stayed behind with a couple of people that didn't complete the main hike. We had to wait for them to finish before heading back (quite late as they were quite slower than the rest of the group), so I wouldn't recommend to do a group hike if you are on a tight schedule for the evening - but otherwise it was a great experience!”

Well organized tour, prompt pick up from the hotel, and they had everything ready for us on time along the way. Loved the complementary coffee along the way. Highly recommend it!!”
