After the instructions of our guide and the review of the equipment, we started this excursion from our ofﬁce, located a few meters from the Plaza de Armas. Puerto Natales is located on the shores of Señoret Canal, between Almirante Montt Gulf and Seno Última Esperanza. It is the capital of the Natales commune and of the Última Esperanza province, named after the navigator Juan Ladrillero in search of a route to the Strait of Magellan. Three centuries passed after the discovery of Ladrillero before it was incursioned again in the area of Última Esperanza. Towards 1830, the expedition of the frigate HMS Beagle, explores the entire sector covered by Ladrillero. The names of some members of that expedition are familiar today in the area: Robert Fitz Roy, William Skyring, James Kirke and the naturalist Charles Darwin.

Around 1870, interest in the lands of Última Esperanza was renewed. Among the adventurous travelers who ventured through these desolate territories, Santiago Zamora stands out, who went down in history as the Zamora native and who owes the discovery of the lacustrine region of Paine and large herds of wild or bagual horses. During the excursion we will visit various monuments, streets and avenues of the city. We will visit the waterfront, the main viewpoints, pioneer homes, the craft village Ether Aike, the plaza of the four villages, Braun Blanchard Pier, mural of native peoples and Arturo Prat Plaza de Armas. The tour concludes at the Patagonia Planet center ofﬁce.
