Puerto Montt Getting there & around

Getting around

ETM buses (US$1.50) go to Aeropuerto El Tepual (252-019), 16km west of town, from the bus terminal; catch the bus 1½ hours before your flight's departure. Taxis to and from the airport and downtown cost US$10; door-to-door shuttles cost US$4.

Car rental agencies Hertz (259-585; Antonia Varas 126) and Full Fama's (258-060; Av Diego Portales 506) can help get permission to take rental vehicles into Argentina, but it can be tricky with insurance. Rates vary from US$50 per day for a normal car to more than US$100 for a pickup or jeep.
