We disembarked the boat everyday at least once. We would take zodiacs into the shore and go from there. One day we did a nice little hike to the top of a ridgeline (nothing too strenuous keeping in mind the expenses of the trip, this was an older more coddled crowd). Cannot really remember the point of that hike other than to view the spectacular scenery around the bay we were in...oh yeah, that was the point.
Probably the best excursion was the trip to see a couple glaciers close up. I was very much impressed at the time, especially with the sound the glacier makes when it calves and drops ice into the lake. Much louder than you might expect. Anyway, after having seen the Perito Moreno Glacier (entry to be added later), my memories of the glacier trip with the cruise have been superseded a bit. But it was cool to be out out there on the water experiencing the cold and rain. That must sound rather weak...no, this was not a scary, super adventure of glacier viewing...but it was cool...I swear it was.
