Description

If you are not in Puerto Natales, you can check the tour’s availability and price from El Calafate.


We’ll leave Puerto Natales to begin a 5.5-hour journey to Perito Moreno Glacier in Argentina. After completing border formalities at Don Guillermo Pass, a local guide will join in El Calafate and accompany you to Los Glaciares National Park.


Your visit to the park will last about 1.5 hours, giving you time to explore the panoramic walkways facing the glacier and several viewpoints. If you’re lucky, you may witness a massive ice collapse over 70 meters high, one of Patagonia’s most awe-inspiring natural spectacles.


You’ll also have the option to split your time: 30 minutes on the walkways and a 1-hour boat tour in front of the glacier (not included). The navigation is subject to confirmed departures, weather conditions, and the absence of delays at the border crossing.
