Argentina sells more safari tours than anyone needs. These 11 are the ones worth the money, each with its price, its verdict, and the detail that usually decides it.
Guided trek near Perito Moreno from Bajo de las Sombras, with a short Lago Rico cruise, a glacier-side walk, and 2 hours on catwalks.
“Incredible experience, beautiful scenery and a lovely hike where you get to touch the glacier and almost crawl inside it at the end! I can’t imagine visiting El Calafate without doing this tour!”
A private half-day Tigre Delta boat safari with quiet canal cruising, bird watching, swim breaks, and great Buenos Aires views from the water.
“Super friendly guide. The tour is very nice and can be tailored to individual needs. We cruised along beautiful little canals and had a wonderful time at a beach bar.”
A private speed-boat safari in Tigre that cruises the Delta, spots wildlife, and includes water skiing on a 4 to 5 hour outing.
“Lautaro was a perfect guide for our family! We had an amazing few hours exploring the Paranà Delta and learned all about the wildlife on and around it, and the people who make their home here. Lautaro adapted to what we were interested in the most and taught us about the river snail that my daughter was fascinated with. And he knew exactly the places to show us where bigger boats can't go and we could have our own special time as a family exploring. This day was one of the highlights of our time in Argentina.”
A 4x4 midday safari from El Calafate into the Patagonian steppe, with wildlife spotting, Estancia 25 de Mayo stories, and a ranch meal.
“We booked this and had a private tour as we were the only ones that evening. Our guide, Guillermo, was on-time, knowledgeable and very personable. He was great at animal spotting (rhea, guanaco, hares, tuko tulo, condors, and a very wide variety of other birds as well. His love of the country side and pride in his home town was clear and joyful to be part of. We saw an ancient burial site and had wine, appetizers and dinner at the Estancia 25 de Mayo all with a warm and cozy fire. If you would Ike to see the steppes and something beyond the national park, I highly recommend this…”
Mendoza Food Safari pairs wine with local bites across four top restaurants in one night, with rooftop views and a guide who knows food.
“The best part of the tour was Antonella!! She is a larger than life character and was delightful company. Her love and knowledge of food and wine was excellent. The venues she had selected were all unique and definitely worth a visit. A great night!!”
4WD wildlife safari from El Calafate to fossil oyster reefs, Tehuelche chenque, and ranch house lunch in Patagonia.
“The drive through the very beautiful scenery and the creature search was a great experience. And that lunch was too awesome! First of all, the house where we had our meal is really lovely. The kittens, the fireplace, the delicious food. The view from the large windows was like a painting. We really had a dreamy time. I recommend it. ！！！！”
