Description
We will start our activity inside the Los Glaciares National Park, located 80 km from the city of El Calafate.
The glaciers protected in this Park, generated centuries and even millennia ago, bear witness to the enormous masses of ice that dominated part of the planet during the last two million years and witnessed the birth of humanity.
Los Glaciares National Park was created in 1937 and declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1981.
Upon arrival at the Park, we will have the opportunity to see the magnificent Perito Moreno Glacier. Optionally, you can choose to sail by boat.
This undoubtedly complements your visit to be dazzled by the imposingness of its landslides, not only from the height of the walkways, but now from lake level: the front of the Glacier oscillates between 40 and 80 meters high above the lake level.

Great Tour, Incorrect Start Time
The tour itself was very good, and the one-hour boat ride gave a different perspective of Perito Moreno than the walking areas. My issue was the booking. I purchased a 12:00 PM tour about six weeks in advance, but the afternoon before I was told the only departure was at 9:10 AM. I contacted Viator for help getting in touch with the tour provider, but they didn’t assist. I adjusted my plans and still had a good experience, but the tour should have been sold with the correct start time, and Viator should do a better job assisting customers when issues like this come up.

Choose the red path first.
Very nice this walk. There are basically 3 paths to do. The yellow that is in the middle of the glacier, the red that is best in the north and the blue in the south.

One of the best beautiful places I've ever seen
I always heard about Perito Moreno glacier. It's not the same seeing photos than being there. For me, was an experience of a lifetime; how intense and powerful the nature can be. The trails to see it from a high view are impressive. But when you take the navigation tour to see it in front of you is another thing. Each tour complement each other. Simply beautiful and impressive,

Amazing!
The tour to Perito Moreno Glacier with sailing was impressive... Seeing the glacier up close from the boat is something unique, and the walkways leave you speechless. Everything was very well organized and was an unforgettable experience in El Calafate! Thanks Guido.

Unlike anything else you’ve seen
Our tour guide, Maria, was excellent! She was very friendly and fun to talk to. She was very informative and helpful. Perito Moreno is absolutely stunning. It is absolutely worth paying the extra for the boat ride as it is the only way to get very close to the glacier. Plus, you get a different perspective than being up on the walkway. I also recommend using the orange and red walkways as you get the full view. It is worth every penny. We even had some bad weather at first because it’s winter, but it calmed down and once the boat stopped, we could see everything clearly and with no complaints. Gorgeous in every way!
