“My two kids and I had a wonderful experience on this tour with our guides Frederico and Nacho.

From El Calafate, sail past Perito Moreno, hike to the glacier wall, then cruise back and enjoy free time on park walkways.
“Such an awesome and unique experience! The water was extremely cold though, even with a wetsuit (beginning of November), so be prepared. Maybe thicker wetsuits is something to have on board. The seals were curious and friendly, and you can swim really close to them! The guide was super nice and enthusiastic about the history…”
See Perito Moreno from land and water on a 7-hour tour from El Calafate, with a glacier walk plus a Lake Rico boat safari.
