Take an unforgettable glacier cruise on the Argentinian Lake, where you'll see the most spectacular glaciers in Patagonia up close.
Patagonia Glacier Cruise + Lunch
The tour leaves from La Soledad port in the morning, starting the cruise through the glaciers of Argentinian Lake.
The yacht will visit key locations in the Glaciers National Park, beginning with the "Dry Glacier", which is shrinking and features a land spit with vegetation.
The cruise will then showcase the Heim and Spegazzini Glaciers, notable for their heights of 135 metres.
Next, we will disembark at Puesto de Las Vacas for a 40-minute hike, where your guide will share historical insights against the stunning Patagonian landscape.
After the hike, we will approach the Upsala Glacier, the third-largest glacier in the Southern Hemisphere with an area of 870 square kilometres, visible from the boat.
Following this, a lunch will be served on board before navigating the Canal de los Témpanos to the north of the Perito Moreno glacier, concluding the excursion. Disembarkation will occur around 5 pm, with options for hotel return based on your reservation.
Pickup & Transfers
If selected, pickup will occur at your hotel in El Calafate at the designated time, with a return after the excursion. Otherwise, the meeting point is the port of La Soledad.
