We had high expectations for this attraction as the pictures and reviews about them seemed great. In reality although they are a must stop if you are travelling the carretera austral they are also not nearly as good as they are portrait to be. interesting enough this attraction looks better in pictures than real life.

Like the title says, the capillas de marmol weren't nearly as cool as I was expecting. I would have been pretty disappointed had I paid more than $10 to see these! The lake itself is really pretty, but the pictures of the marble caves are way better than the real thing, and usually it's the other way around... If you do go, make sure to get quotes from various tour operators. Some area really expensive, and in the end you're paying for the exact same thing.

Best appreciated on a day with blue skies and no wind. But awesome anytime time of the year. By canoe or kayak you should be aware of the rapidly changing weather in Patagonia. The wind and waves can pick up very quickly. Treat this lake like the ocean.

Choose nice weather to take this tour, the lake is lightly to get rough when windy and you will not appreciate as much on a cloudy day. A Must See, because it is very rare. These huge total marbel caverns will take your breath away, plus the magnificent views of the Lake Gral Carrera and surroundings. Cant Miss!

When comparing the marble caves to any other site throughout the Patagonia Region, it comes out to be pretty average. There is so much more to see from the hikes throughout El Bolson, to Perito Moreno Glacier, to the worth while hikes like Fitz Roy in El Chalten on your way to Torres del Paine. If you're on your way south in Chile, stop by... if you're on the Argentina side, I recommend to save your time and money. Whatever you do, if you find yourself in Chile Chico, stay away from a travel guide for the marble caves by the first name Alonzo (check out his photo that I've uploaded). Poor communication, made our group wait for two and a half hours after our 1 hour tour was over to take a different bus when we hired him to take us back privately which then broke down and demanded we pay upfront or he wouldn't drive us even though we guaranteed we would be back to Chile Chico by 7pm which we never did. He's not necessarily a scam artist but more of a untrustworthy guide. Stay away!
