Treat this like a ski trip. Full snow gear if you don’t want to get cold and wet. Big tip. Weather always improves at high noon (not 12, it’s when sun is at its highest.)
5Perito Moreno Glacier
The drive from El Calafate is about 2.5 hours. On the way you stop at several spots for photographs of Lake Argentina and landscapes. After you enter the national park we drove to some catamarans, boarding one to go to within 200 meters of the south face of the Perito Moreno glacier. Afterwards we went to a restaurant located near walking paths that provide views of the north and south face of the glaciers. The paths are very well constructed but there are hundreds of steps down and them back up. The views were amazing. We saw and heard “calving” of the glacier (where pieces break off and fall into the lake). The drive back was just over an hour.
5full day it goes fast....
full day it goes fast. Tour guide very knowledgeable in both Spanish and English. stupendous view of the glacier. be sure to take the hour navigation tour going up near the glacier for wonderful photo opertunities
5Amazing Perrigo Moreno Experience!
Excellent communication. Very accommodating pickup from my AirBnB and drop off somewhere convenient for me to continue my day. The bus was very comfortable. The guide narrated our outward bound trip with a great deal of local knowledge. Inward bound we were allowed to enjoy the drive with soft music and to have a bit of a siesta. I highly recommend this tour!
4Stressful start but great finish
Great scenery and guide. The transport was a bit squishy - ever seat filled with big adults. Unfortunately the communication beforehand was inconsistent and left us stressing that we didn’t have a tour to go on… but it did all work out.
5Glacier by boat and foot
Starting with a prompt pickup, our bilingual guide did a great job of describing what we were looking at on the way to the glacier. The Glacier itself is truly globally unique in its size, it’s accessibility by boat and the viewpoints on the facing cliffs. I highly recommend taking the boat option for an entirely different perspective on this wonder.

About El Calafate
El Calafate is a small Patagonian town on the shore of Lago Argentino, the base for the Perito Moreno Glacier and Los Glaciares National Park.
El Calafate lies on the south shore of Lago Argentino, a milky turquoise lake fed by glacial meltwater, with the Andes on the western horizon. The town is named after the calafate, a thorny shrub with dark berries, and a local saying promises that anyone who eats them will return to Patagonia. It was founded in the 1920s to serve the surrounding sheep estancias and now exists chiefly as the gateway to Los Glaciares National Park.
