The walkways will allow you to access the viewing balconies that showcase the glacier from different angles. Enjoy this incredible natural show! You will be amazed not only by the impressive glacier but also by the typical tree vegetation of the Andean Patagonian forest. You will go to the main balcony and then walk freely on the walkways until the meeting time agreed with the guide. The duration of this step may vary depending on weather conditions. For lunchtime, the National Park offers a service area with a restaurant and a snack bar (lunch not included)

  • 5Wonderful

    This experience is wonderful. It starts around 9am where I was picked up at my hotel and then we hit the road. The tour starts with a couple of stops to take pictures from the road and then you'll board the boat to the glaciers. They navigate for about an hour and get close enough to the icebergs. After that you can walk around the trails and have lunch. This place is breathtaking and worth it. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone. They even have ramps for wheelchairs.

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.
