El Calafate — Perito Moreno Glacier Tour with Optional Boat Navigation

8 hours

Easy

Visit the spectacular Perito Moreno Glacier with hotel pickup and an optional boat experience.

Live an unforgettable experience visiting one of the most astonishing natural wonders on the planet: the Perito Moreno Glacier. This full-day excursion departs from El Calafate with hotel pickup around 9:00 a.m., heading deep into the wild and breathtaking Patagonian landscapes on the way to Los Glaciares National Park.

Once inside the national park, you’ll have plenty of time to explore the glacier at your own pace. Follow the network of walkways that wind through the forest and lead to several scenic viewpoints overlooking the glacier.

During your visit, you can take a break for lunch inside the park — either with a picnic or at one of its restaurants — while enjoying close-up views of the impressive ice wall.

You’ll also have the option to add a unique experience: a one-hour boat navigation along the southern face of the glacier, perfect for travelers who want to admire it from a different perspective.
