Itinerary
Start your adventure with a convenient transfer from your accommodation in El Calafate to the imposing Los Glaciares National Park. The Route 11 tour is an experience in itself: the vastness of the Patagonian steppe, its wildlife and the views of Lake Argentina anticipate the wonder that awaits you. Our guides will accompany you at all times, sharing fascinating facts about the history, ecology and geology of this UNESCO World Heritage Site region. Upon entering the park, we will make a stop at the Mirador de los Sigurs, where you will have your first visual encounter with the Brazo Rico and the south face of the majestic Perito Moreno Glacier.
The tour begins with a walk through the park’s network of walkways, which stretches for 4 kilometers (2.5 miles). From different levels and viewpoints, you can admire the glacier from various perspectives, enjoying panoramic and unique views.
You will have approximately 2 hours to walk the walkways and, if you wish, you can take the opportunity to pause and have lunch, either with a picnic or at one of the nearby restaurants.
Afterwards, you will embark on a boat ride of approximately 1 hour, approaching the imposing wall of the Perito Moreno glacier.
At the end of the tour, you will return to El Calafate by the same route, arriving in the city in the afternoon.

Had a wonderful experience with my tour guide Natalia! I highly recommend going to this tour! The views were breathtaking! I had a wonderful time!!
The most breathtaking views and excursion. Lot of great stops for photos and hikes, amazing views and unforgettable experience on the boat to the glaciers, and inside of actual park. We were even able to hold a big piece of ice from iceberg !
Excellent experience. The duration of the tour is enough, you do not need much more. The guide always very kind, gave detail of all vegetation, history of the place and much more. One of the best stops was before arriving, overlooking the Argentine lake at sunrise, simply sensational.
Excellent walk. Very beautiful and charming the Perito Moreno. Imperdible.
Wow, a magical place, landscapes that cannot be fully described in photos. An experience that must be had if you go to Argentina. The agency in charge of the tourist plan, which is the same as the park, has everything very well organized and maintains the conservation of the place.
Very good everything from the guide, excellent, very friendly and with great professionalism. I recommend it!!
Visiting Perito Moreno Glacier was truly one of the most beautiful experiences I’ve ever had. The sheer size and colors of the glacier are breathtaking and something you have to see in person to fully appreciate. The boat experience was a highlight of the tour, as it brought us much closer to the glacier, giving an incredible perspective and making the whole moment even more memorable. Our guide was very friendly and provided a lot of useful information about the park and the glacier itself, which made the visit even more interesting. Overall, it was an amazing experience, and I would absolutely do it again without hesitation.
Great day, well organised with a great guide. Bit pricey and could be done the trip with local transportstion but I liked that I didn’t have to think
Fantastic day, especially loved the boat ride that allows you to get closer to the glaciar. Thank you very much 💞
Once in a lifetime experience! The views, the sounds, everything was perfect (even though was rainig). It is better to buy the park tickets in advanced. We had our experienced booked through chic patagonia and included our lumch (best decision ever). Enjoyed the experience!
