Spectacular views of the glaciers

A well-organized tour, from hotel transportation to the boat in the port. The Catamaran very well. Good quality food and beverages in the Refuge. Excellent time to take pictures on the catwalks. I highly recommend it.

Glaciers National Park Patagonia

Not to be missed. Stunning beauty of Upsala, Spegazzini, Seco glaciers and icebergs like floating sculptures. Well organised although highly popular catamaran round trip - we went on Quo Vadis - with a comfortable stop at Spegazzini Shelter for some lunch whilst admiring the glacier. A Patagonia highlight for sure😁

We're glad to hear everything was well-organized and that you enjoyed the Quo Vadis catamaran and the relaxing stop at Spegazzini Shelter—it sounds like the perfect way to admire Patagonia's breathtaking landscapes.

Magnificent tour

This trip is one that I will never forget. Navigating on this beautiful day was an extraordinary experience . The boat wasn't full so it was easy to walk around. We stopped near Upsala but couldn't get too near because of the icebergs. Even though we couldn't get near it was anyhow fascinating but what made the tour was the Perito Moreno, we saw it from the boat but we also got off and walked around for a couple of hours. I even managed to see a lump of ice falling into the lake. Navigating was a wonderful experience.
