Full description

Discover Patagonia on this trek in Los Glaciares National Park. Explore the park on foot, and trek on glaciers with crampons. Learn about the flora and fauna from your guide along the way, and sail in front of a glacier on Argentino Lake.

This unmissable experience begins at the “Bajo de las Sombras” Port, within Los Glaciares National Park. Take a boat to cross the Brazo Rico, to the west coast. After crossing, take a rest stop and meet your guides who will brief you on the activity. Strap on your crampons and trek along the glacier, following along with your licensed guides. See unique ice formations and learn about glacier ruptures and the natural life of the region. Return to the refuge through the Magellan forest where you can enjoy your lunch (not included) with a view of the Perito Moreno Glacier. Return through the Brazo Rico of the Argentino Lake, sailing in front of the glacier.

You can also enjoy the view of the Perito Moreno from the catwalks: another way to see and appreciate its immensity.

It was great. I went with my family (5 adults with two being 55+ in age). This was a fantastic activity. It's not hard and can really accommodate for age if you are mobile. Def dress warm as its get quite cold (we went in the winter months). Our guide Luis was great. He had great stories and provided a lot of good facts about the Glacier Moreno. Def worth the money!

The day started with a beautiful walk overlooking the glacier. After watching a calving on the north side we headed up to have some lunch before taking a boat across Brazo Rico to the hiking basecamp. Trekking was not too difficult, but it was really fun. Our guide, Nico, is an amazing man full of energy. Highly recommend this tour!

The tour itself was phenomenal and fun I recommend 1000%. However, Get Your Guide charged too much for it. I found out if you book the same tour when you get there, you would save more than 100 USD by booking and paying in Argentina pesos. There are several travel offices on the main strip of El Calafate selling the same tour for the same price in peso. There is only one authorized company actually operating this tour. All sellers of this tour are just travel agents only.
