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 to view the glaciers of the Argentinian Lake.

The yacht will tour the key points in the Glaciers National Park, beginning with the "Dry Glacier". It is shrinking, with land protruding and vegetation attempting to create a path among the ice.

The cruise continues to the Heim and Spegazzini Glaciers, noted for their impressive walls at 135 metres tall.

Next, we will disembark at Puesto de Las Vacas for a 40-minute hike, where the guide will share the history and stories of the region against the stunning Patagonian landscape.

After the hike, we will approach the Upsala Glacier, spanning 870 square kilometres, making it the third-largest glacier in the Southern Hemisphere. Views from the boat showcase its vast ice expanse.

Following lunch on board, we will navigate the Canal de los Témpanos to reach the north of the Perito Moreno glacier, concluding this captivating tour. We will disembark at La Soledad port around 5 pm, with an option to return to your hotel.

With this option, we will pick you up from your hotel in El Calafate at the scheduled time and return you post-excursion. Alternatively, meet at the port of La Soledad.
