Itinerary

Our excursion to the Perito Moreno Glacier begins from your hotel in El Calafate. Once the pickup by hotels is finished, we leave from El Calafate towards the Perito Moreno Glacier, after a journey of 80 km in which we border Lake Argentino with the Andes mountain range in the background, which gives us magical views, we arrive to the walkway sector in front of the Perito Moreno glacier. The walkways have balconies at different levels and angles connected by paths and stairs which can be explored in their entirety during the excursion. From the walkways you will have the time necessary to marvel at the different shades of blue, the imposing walls of ice and the thunderous sound of the ice breaking, generating a unique sensory experience. Once the activity is finished, we begin our return to El Calafate.
