Itinerary
If you’ve chosen the flight option, your journey begins with a private transfer direct to Buenos Aires Airport, to take your flight to El Calafate. If not, we will pick you up directly at El Calafate Airport. Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by a private driver and meet your expert guide. From there, you’ll head directly to the breathtaking Los Glaciares National Park, home to the world-famous Perito Moreno Glacier. Get ready for a day filled with awe-inspiring natural beauty and adventure.
Once at Los Glaciares National Park, you'll be awe-struck by the sheer scale and beauty of Perito Moreno Glacier. As one of the few glaciers in the world that is still advancing, this natural wonder offers a truly unique experience.
Walk along the specially designed viewing platforms to get a closer look at the massive ice walls, and if you're lucky, you might even witness the dramatic spectacle of a chunk of ice calving into the waters below. Your expert guide will share fascinating insights about the glacier’s formation, the surrounding ecosystem, and its role in shaping this stunning region. Whether you're taking in the panoramic views from the lookout points or soaking in the peaceful atmosphere, this experience is one you won't soon forget.
For an even more immersive experience, you have the option to add the Safari Náutico boat tour. This incredible excursion takes you on a close-up journey along the southern shores of Lake Argentino, where you'll get a unique view of the Perito Moreno Glacier from the water. As the boat approaches the towering ice walls, you’ll feel the awe-inspiring scale of the glacier from a whole new perspective. While on board, your guide will provide insights into the glacier’s history, while you take in the spectacular views of icebergs, lush forests, and the surrounding mountains. This optional boat ride adds an unforgettable adventure to your day at one of the most beautiful natural wonders on Earth.
Pass by: After an unforgettable day exploring the wonders of Perito Moreno Glacier, you'll be transferred back to El Calafate Airport in the comfort of your private vehicle.

Traveler reviews
Great and fast experience
A good chance to visit Calafate if you don't have too much time to explore it! The good assistance from the operator with communications and reservations, where excellent! Hoping to be able to visit again in the future!
Read up- be your own tour guide.(sort of)
The private tour is not good. The availability is not on the website, so we did not go. Their phone number is not answered, either in English, or Español. So, we booked airfare to ElCalafate direct. We reserved a hotel for the night, and took off! The hotel arranged a glacier tour for 104$ each. That included the boat ride in the bay, to see the glacier up close. It was great. We got back, after a busy day, at 9pm. the next day, we had time for local sights and lunch, before getting back to airport for the flight. In all, it was about 1200.00 for the 2 days. A better price than a rushed, 1 day tour. Next time, we stay in Ushuaia and go to Calafate on the way back to BA.
Absolutely amazing...
Absolutely amazing experience! Loved every minute of it! So far my best day in Argentina ! Photos speaks volume …
A MUST WHILE IN ARGENTINA
We had a BIG problem at the beginning of the trip. No one arrived at the hotel to take us to the local airport at 2:30 am in the morning. We finally hired a cab and worried the 3-hour plane ride no one would be at the other end. We did What's Up to contact the agency and no one responded. Sabrina was at the other end to pick us up thankfully. The town itself is delightful and we wanted to stop on the return to the airport but she didn't want to spend the time and we had plenty before our flight. The glaciers are amazing to watch and we even saw it calve. The boat spent an hour on the water in front of the glacier. We were so fortunate with the weather, but I'd definitely be prepared for extreme winds and cold with appropriate attire. She explained about Patagonia and the flora and fauna. I would not do this trip in a day with the hours Signature Tours gave. The day was exhausting as we didn't return to the hotel until almost midnight. They did refund the money to the airport and gave wine to apologize. I was happy I could speak Spanish as it would have been quite difficult to navigate the taxi and airport without it. For the money we paid it shouldn't have happened. IF using this tour agency watch the hours of the flights as there were better times and that they respond with the name of the driver.
