Tour Description
Day 1

Day 2
Big Ice Trek on Perito Moreno Glacier*
Los Glaciares National Park
After enjoying breakfast at your hotel, we will pick you up for a scenic 90-minute drive to Los Glaciares National Park.
As soon as you step out of the vehicle, you'll witness the impressive scale of the Perito Moreno Glacier, but the true adventure begins at the port "Bajo de las Sombras." Here, we will board a boat to cross the Brazo Rico of Lake Argentino to the west coast.
We will hike through a section of forest, and the mountain guides will bring you closer to the glacier, where you will put on crampons and start your trek.
The route follows the southern moraine of the Perito Moreno Glacier, and after just over an hour, you’ll arrive at a breathtaking viewpoint, where the ice adventure begins.
On the glacier, you’ll discover a world of vibrant blue lagoons, deep crevasses, vast sinkholes, magical ice caves, and the unforgettable feeling of standing in the heart of the glacier.
Expert guides will accompany and instruct you throughout the three-and-a-half-hour trek, sharing insights about the ice formations and the surrounding landscape.
You’ll also have half an hour to enjoy lunch on the pristine ice and take in the unparalleled scenery.
After returning to the moraine, you’ll hike another hour back to the boat, which will cruise near the glacier’s southern face before taking you back to the port—an extraordinary conclusion to a remarkable glacier experience.
The excursion also includes time to stroll along the walkways in front of the glacier.
After a full day of adventure, totaling nearly 12 hours, you’ll return to your hotel in El Calafate.
* The Big Ice trek is available for individuals aged 18 to 50. For those under 18 or over 50, the excursion can be replaced with the "Minitrekking on the Glacier," which includes 90 minutes on the ice.
