Private Tour

Aculeo Lagoon · Kayak & Horseback

Private tours only · never shared groups · itinerary 100% your own

The lake closest to Santiago: 68 km (42 mi), a little over an hour on the road down Route 5 South to Paine. A full day combining the two ways to take in Aculeo — kayaking on the water in the morning and a horseback ride through the country around the lagoon in the afternoon — with guide and equipment included in both. Lunch is free and at your choice: we recommend the best spots nearby and the cost is on you. Hotel pickup in Santiago.
