Yes! Book a private, door-to-door airport transfer with a local English-speaking driver. Enjoy fixed and transparent pricing, no hidden fees, and the option to pay in advance without the hassle of exchanging cash at a foreign airport.
You will receive the vehicle that best fits the number of travelers in your group, ranging from a sedan to a van for groups of up to 7. Depending where you travel, you can book anything from a sedan comparable to a Toyota Corolla to a Mercedes V-Class to a Classic Cuban Car. While the exact model may vary, we always ensure that the vehicle provided meets your needs in terms of safety, reliability, and comfort. You may be upgraded to a larger vehicle class free of charge depending on availability. Since our largest vehicle seats 7, for groups larger a combination of vehicles will be used. We will send you the exact vehicle details a few days before your trip.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.
Know more about traveling from Ancud
From roughly September to March, it's possible to arrange an excursion from Ancud to the Pingüineras de Puñihuil penguin colony nearby. Conditions depend on weather, tides, and season, so sightings aren't guaranteed and the excursion isn't available year-round. If it's on your list, build in extra time beyond a standard Ancud stop.
Ancud sits on Isla Grande de Chiloé, reached via a ferry crossing at Chacao roughly 30 km (19 miles) from town on the Pargua side. From Puerto Montt, the trip covers roughly 110-115 km (68-71 miles) including the crossing, though ferry wait times vary and can add to the total journey. A private transfer means one vehicle and driver take you door to door, including the ferry crossing, rather than juggling separate buses on each side of the water.
Two to three hours covers Fort San Antonio, the Churches of Chiloé Museum, and a walk through the Feria Rural y Artesanal market. If you're adding the Puñihuil penguin excursion, plan to extend your stop to at least 4 hours total, since the colony sits a bit outside town.
Yes. Castro sits roughly 90 km (56 miles) south of Ancud, making it a natural next stop for travelers continuing deeper into Chiloé's church trail. Since Ancud previews the island's wooden-church architecture at its museum, seeing it first adds useful context before visiting the churches in person further south. A private transfer lets you build Ancud into a longer Chiloé itinerary without fixed bus schedules dictating your pace.
Fort San Antonio's well-preserved battery gives wide views over the bay and a look at Ancud's colonial defenses. The Churches of Chiloé Museum uses cutaway models to explain how the island's UNESCO-listed wooden churches were built with nailless construction. For handicrafts or a seafood lunch, the Feria Rural y Artesanal market is worth a wander.
Ancud pairs colonial military history with an authentic fishing-port atmosphere, all within easy reach of Chiloé's UNESCO-listed church trail. Founded in 1778 as a Spanish city-fort, it went on to become the last Spanish stronghold in the Americas, holding out until 1826. That layered past shows up at Fort San Antonio's coastal battery and in the compact Churches of Chiloé Museum, giving you useful context before you see the wooden churches scattered across the island.
So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.
