Day 1 Departure to El Calafate

Day 2 Arrival to El Calafate and visit to Los Glaciares National Park

You will head towards Los Glaciares National Park (entrance fee not included), driving along the scenic Route 11, which runs alongside the main course of Lago Argentino on the way to Brazo Rico (1 hour from the airport). Once at the park, you will stop at "Curva de los Suspiros" to take a first look to the Perito Moreno Glacier. Certainly, an amazing view.
The next stop will be at "Muelle bajo las Sombras," where you'll board a boat (shared service) that will take you on an up-close visit to the stunning Perito Moreno ice walls. You'll get close enough to contemplate its immensity and to observe the ice landslides that continually shear off the main glacier. As you get to the front wall, the boat will stop for a few minutes to get a better look at the landscape, giving you a good opportunity to take interesting photos and film the scene.

Day 3 Walkways in Los Glaciares National Park and return flight

Then the boat will drop you off at a nearby network of catwalks within view of Perito Moreno, allowing you to see this imposing glacier from several balconies located at different heights and angles, each more beautiful than the last one.
You can enjoy some free time to walk around or, if you wish to, get lunch at any of the restaurants near the runways.
Your private driver will pick you up and take you to the departure Airport to board your return flight.
