We begin our local experience, visiting "Presidente Ibañez Market", where you will appreciate the local environment of the local people and their neighborhood. You will see and experience the local reality of the people who do not appear in the "conventional Guidebooks". This Market is very popular with a great list of farm products and seafood from small Islands around Puerto Montt. Talk, coffee, and "Empanadas" you will find here. After, we'll visit downtown and take a walk around. Finally, we'll visit Angelmó Art & Craft Market, the largest market in Southern Chile. Here, we will have a delicious lunch with a good "Chilean Wine" in the "Cocinerias" (small local restaurant operated by locals). After lunch, we will enjoy a walk around the market and get nicer souvenirs. Back to the pier, airport, or your hotel. *This full-day tour is priced for a group of 4, but I can accommodate groups of up to 17 travelers or more. Need help, email me!
