Puerto Natales to Lago Grey shared shuttle with pickup

Two departure times let you pick which sailing suits your schedule.

A shared transfer connects Puerto Natales hotels to Lago Grey for the first or second Grey Lake navigation departure, with pickup and drop-off included. Book round-trip to return the same day, or one-way if you're staying at the lodge. Minimum two passengers per booking. The driver speaks Spanish.

The experience

The transfer runs on two fixed schedules to match the boat departures. The early option picks you up at 6:30 AM, arriving at Hotel Lago Grey by 9:00 AM for the first sailing. You return at 2:00 PM and reach Puerto Natales by 4:00 PM. The later departure leaves at 9:30 AM, arriving at noon for the second sailing, with return at 5:00 PM and arrival back in the city by 7:00 PM. Both routes follow the same road and take roughly two and a half hours each way.

This is a shared van, so you'll travel with other passengers booked on the same departure. Your hotel in Puerto Natales is the pickup point, and the driver will collect you from the urban area of the city. The return works the same way: the van meets you at Hotel Lago Grey at the scheduled time and drops you back at your accommodation. A Spanish-speaking driver is included. If you need a different language, check availability when you book.

Round-trip and one-way are separate bookings, so decide before checkout whether you're returning the same day or staying at the lodge. A minimum of two people must travel together on any single booking. If the boat operator cancels the sailing after you've paid for the transfer, the fee is non-refundable, so confirm the cruise is running before you commit to the transport.
