Perito Moreno Glacier: The 15 Best Tours & Boat Trips

15 reviewed

Five kilometres of ice wall, sixty metres above Lago Argentino, and it collapses into the water without warning. These 15 trips are the ways to see it: balcony walkways for the wide view, a boat that noses up to the face, or crampons and a guided walk across the glacier itself. Prices, walking distances and how long each one gives you in front of the ice are all below.

“I had an amazing time on the Perito Moreno Glacier trekking tour! The weather was beautiful for most of the day, with just a little light rain here and there—nothing that took away from the experience. The glacier itself is absolutely breathtaking, and getting to walk on it felt like a once-in-a-lifetime moment. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and fun, and the entire staff was warm, organized, and made everyone feel safe and comfortable. From the boat ride to the trek and all the little details in between, everything was well-run and exceeded my expectations. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone visiting El Calafate. Truly a 10/10…”

Then we really loved the views. We even got to see a large piece of the glacier fall. The staff on the boat was great and at the footbridges our guide Maxi and Jorge the bus driver were a great pair”

“DONT USE VIATOR, There was nothing great about this excursion, the only thing which was memorable was the fact we had to pay an ADDITIONAL $70.00 to pay for our on way back to the hotel. Viator change the planned iteaneary in reverse. Then, they were going to drop us off at a dock where would have to walk up stairs (we are 65) and walk about 2 miles uphill. So, he had to no choice but to pay. Viator is only a booking agency, they will offer you almost nothing for the negative trip we had. Had we known, there are plenty of local vendors that will do the…”

“This excursion was ok. If you are going to travel to Calafate then you do need to do this trip as there are amazing views and scenery. The trip was a little dull overall and I don’t feel it was worth the money which is why I gave it 4 stars. I do recommend people do it for the experience but don’t expect too much trekking or actual time on the ice. My husband and I are glad we did it but were not like, “oh my gosh, how amazing” afterwards. Side note: we booked a tour in English. This means we were the only 2 people out of 40+…”
