Tour Description

The journey kicks off with a convenient pick-up from your hotel, heading towards the Glaciers National Park. We'll travel along the scenic Route 11, which runs alongside the stunning Lago Argentino. It's worth noting that this glacier, along with others, forms part of the Patagonic Continental Ice, one of the world's most vital reserves of potable water.

Upon entering the park, our first stop is at Curva de los Suspiros, where we will catch our initial glimpse of the breathtaking Perito Moreno Glacier. Afterward, we will pause at Muelle Bajo Las Sombras for those interested in an optional boat ride.

Next, we'll proceed to the glacier frontal walkways, offering the chance to view the glacier from various balconies set at different elevations. This allows us to appreciate it from multiple perspectives, each more awe-inspiring than the last.

Finally, you'll have free time to observe the mesmerizing glacier melt. If desired, you can enjoy lunch at one of the nearby restaurants by the walkways. In the afternoon, we'll return you to your hotel in Calafate.

Experiencia épica con Best Argentina Tours. Desde El Calafate nos pasaron puntuales, guía capo y datos útiles. En las pasarelas del Perito Moreno sentís los crujidos y ves desprendimientos increíbles. Hicimos navegación corta frente al frente del glaciar, fotos tremendas. Tiempo libre suficiente, todo bien organizado, sin apuros. Llevar abrigo, gorro y termo. ¡Super recomendado! ¡Repetiría!

Viví el Perito Moreno con Best Argentina Tours: emoción, paisajes y servicio impecable

Quelle claque à El Calafate ! Avec Best Argentina Tours, l’excursion a été impec: navette pile à l’heure, guide hyper sympa et calé, et des vues de dingue sur le glacier Perito Moreno. On a fait la passerelle, puis la navigation pour approcher la glace, photos de folie. Organisation fluide, pas de stress, temps libre bien pensé, et petites attentions (thermos pour le maté, crampons bien réglés si tu fais le mini-trekking). Rapport qualité-prix nickel, je recommande sans hésiter pour un premier trip en Patagonie.

El Calafate, magie glacée assurée

Definitivamente, una aventura que no te podés perder si estás en Argentina. Me encantó la forma en que el tour te sumerge en la majestuosidad de la naturaleza. ¡Totalmente recomendable!
