Description

Set out on a scenic day trip to one of the world’s most awe-inspiring natural wonders — the Perito Moreno Glacier — located in the heart of Los Glaciares National Park. Your journey begins with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in El Calafate around 10:00 a.m., followed by a drive through the Patagonian landscape toward the western edge of the Magellanic Peninsula. Once inside the national park, you’ll have ample time — approximately 3 hours — to explore the glacier at your own pace. Walk along a 4-kilometer (2.5-mile) network of elevated boardwalks, designed to offer safe and stunning panoramic views from various levels and vantage points. From the lower balconies to the higher terraces, every turn presents a new angle of the glacier’s immense face and dramatic ice formations. Take this time to enjoy a packed lunch or grab a bite at one of the park’s restaurants while overlooking the glacier’s towering ice walls. For those looking to get even closer, an optional 1-hour boat ride is available, offering a unique perspective from the water just in front of the glacier’s massive terminus. After immersing yourself in this icy spectacle, you’ll return to El Calafate via the same route, arriving back in the afternoon — your camera full, your mind amazed, and your heart forever marked by Patagonia’s frozen giant.
