Set off on a stunning cruise to get up-close tof the Perito Moreno Glacier, one of Patagonia’s most spectacular sites. Learn about the steady expansion of this dynamic mountain of ice, enjoy seeing it from different perspectives, and walk on a footbridge near its pale blue walls.

Savour views of the dramatic Patagonian landscape as you ride from the picturesque town of El Calafate to Los Glaciares National Park and your waiting boat. Climb aboard a spacious vessel with unobstructed viewing decks and embark into the bright blue waters of Lago Argentino.

Your experienced captain works to get you as close to the glacier as possible during this exciting 40-minute tour. Listen for thunderous cracks as the gigantic ice formation continues to grow. Despite recent changes in the global climate, this glacier is known to be steadily growing, feeding off streams and rivers. You may even see house-sized chunks fall off and plunge into the water below.

Nearby, wander along the Mirador, a footbridge that offers you its own unique look at the Perito Moreno Glacier and the perfect opportunity to snap a few photos of this breathtaking landscape. When your memory card is full, head back to El Calafate and reflect on your memorable exploration of this natural wonder.
