On this accessible adventure, you will spend a day at the beautiful Reloncavi Fjord, which is part of a region known as the Chilean Lake District.

This private guided day trip begins with a pick-up service from your accommodation in Puerto Varas and a drive of approximately 80 minutes. The vehicle can be accessed via a ramp, but you must either be able to self-transfer into the van or be willing to accept assistance to transfer. The staff have been trained to assist people with disabilities and wheelchairs can be stored in the van.

After a scenic drive in the van, you will arrive at the first stop of the day. The itinerary for the day is flexible, with approximately 18 km (11.2 miles) of kayaking from the village of Ralun to Cochamo, or the other way round. The kayaking route along Reloncavi Fjord will give you the opportunity to admire some beautiful mountain scenery and the Yates volcano, and you may also see marine wildlife such as sea lions, dolphins and penguins.

This tour also includes lunch in a farm run by a local family, where you will be able to meet the family and learn about their sustainable lifestyle and deep connection with the local environment. At the end of the tour, you will be driven back to your accommodation in Puerto Varas.

This tour is adapted to accommodate people with disabilities and the kayaks are equipped with stabiliser support bars and wrist adaptor devices for rowing. There are no accessible bathrooms along the tour, but assistance will be available throughout the tour if you require it. Wheelchairs can be transported either in the kayak or by the driver in the van.
