We headed for route No. 11, skirting the Argentino Lake. From El Calafate, to the Perito Moreno Glacier, there is a distance of 80 km, by paved road in its entirety. From the beginning, the trip holds pleasant surprises. Leaving the Town, to the right we can see the Argentino Lake with its Round Bay. In it you can see an important variety of birdlife, standing out the black-necked swan, flamingo, steam duck, coot, and goose. The yellow color of the field stands out, this is due to its pastures called coirón, and among them, the white and short coirón stands out. In the first 40 km the Patagonian steppe is covered, later going to the entrance of the National Park to observe the arboreal vegetation belonging mostly to the "notofagus" family (ñires, cherries, lengas), and flowers of various colors, among which the notro stands out for its intense red color corresponding to the Patagonian Andean Forest.

    What you'll see and do

    1. Perito Moreno Glacier

      The Perito Moreno Glacier is one of the most impressive spectacles in Patagonia. It is a large mass of ice and its proportions are so enormous that you have to see them live to understand them. One way to observe it is by visiting Los Glaciares National Park, and walk the walkways that border the front of the glacier, which is located 30km from the park entrance and was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1981. The walkways have three levels, and add up to 4 km, which reach the proximity of the glacier. The route is made up of stairs, ramps, an elevator and balconies with very easy access railings. The different levels of the viewpoints allow you to see the glacier in the safest way, from different perspectives that allow you to appreciate the different textures and colors of the ice. In addition, fractures and ruptures in the ice constantly occur that fall on the water and cause a great noise.

    Full Day Tour to Perito Moreno Glacier: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for El Calafate.

    How much does Full Day Tour to Perito Moreno Glacier cost?

    +

    Prices start at $110 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in El Calafate usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Full Day Tour to Perito Moreno Glacier take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in El Calafate is not rushed.

    Is Full Day Tour to Perito Moreno Glacier worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in El Calafate, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Tour to Perito Moreno Glacier?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Full Day Tour to Perito Moreno Glacier suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full Day Tour to Perito Moreno Glacier?

    +

    Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in El Calafate can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in El Calafate and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full Day Tour to Perito Moreno Glacier start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central El Calafate within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in El Calafate?

    +

    On Outty we rank every El Calafate experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kayak Full-Day Activity in La Leona River from El Calafate, Perito Moreno Glacier with Navigation from El Calafate, Perito Moreno Glacier Full Day Tour with Optional Boat Safari. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit El Calafate?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in El Calafate?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
