Anyone ever cruised around the Glaciers of Chile?

Question

if so..........how was it?

Answer 1

I did a 5 day trip from Puerto Montt to the San Rafael Glacier (and back) a few years ago.  The boat trip was fun and the fellow passengers were a good laugh / great crowd to spend a few days with. Going closer to the glacier in small inflatable zodiacs was fantastic.

On the down-side, the cheapest accommodation is in the main cabin which has what is effectively rows of airline-type seats that recline...and they're as comfortable as airline seats, when you're trying to sleep. Each night it became a battle to see who could get a bit of floor space, just so that you could stretch out. With hind-sight I'd pay a bit more and try to get a bed in one of the few cabins, but I still thoroughly enjoyed the trip.

From what i recall, the food was pretty reasonable.
