Itinerary

This tour starts early in the morning as we head to Cerro Castillo, where we'll cross the border into Calafate. Along the way, we’ll travel through the beautiful Argentine Patagonia steppe, with a short stop at a gas station in Esperanza to rest and use the restroom. We will continue for another 2 hours, where you might spot guanacos and rheas, typical wildlife of the area. Upon arrival in El Calafate, you’ll meet your local guide for a one-hour drive to Perito Moreno Glacier. This glacier is renowned for its beauty and the spectacular ice calving that occurs frequently, so you may witness this incredible natural phenomenon. The walkways and viewpoints in the national park allow you to get close to Perito Moreno safely. There’s also an option to take a 45-minute boat ride along the glacier’s front, which is not included in the tour price and can be arranged with your local guide in Calafate. After spending two hours in the national park, we'll return to Puerto Natales via the same route.
