    Another view of the wonderful glacier

    Well worth the 64,000 Argentina pesos for two people if driving yourself to the park and just paying at the counter or preferably booking a time online or at their ofices in El Calafate. We did this trip after absolutely wonderful views of the glacier from the many walkway viewpoints. The boat ride added panoramic views as we approached and very near close up views. On departure it was enclosed downstairs seating only then there was a rush to the upper deck. The 4 pm sailing is the quietest of the day but still busy. But wherever you were on the boat the way the boat was frequently spun around to give each side every opportunity for great views was simply excellent.

    Do not book this. Totally unresponsive. Would not recommend.

    This company does not care about its customers. I booked this excursion by accident because the picture looked similar to another wheelchair tour. I realized after booking that I booked the wrong tour. I reached out to them via messaging and WhatsApp within minutes after I realized my mistake and have not received a response. I do not want to pay for a tour that I can’t take because of a simple mistake. Other tours give you time to cancel especially considering the circumstances. You can’t even ask questions about the tour. In a region like Patagonia you want a company who cares about your experience. I would definitely not recommend this company or this tour. They simply don’t care. It just about collecting your money.

    All right.

    We took this company to visit PERITO Moreno. Comfortable boat, quality service with reviews.

    Skip the boat go for a hike

    It’s not really worth it, you’re better off doing the pasarela hike. There’s nothing wrong with this tour it’s just not that interesting. Also with a history ticket you need to exchange this at the ticket booth before you can board the boat. There is also an entrance fee for the national park

    Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico cost?

    +

    Prices start at $142 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 Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico take?

    +

    Plan for about 1 hour 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 Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 44 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in El Calafate, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico?

    +

    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 Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico?

    +

    Around 5 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 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico 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.

    What is included in Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico?

    +

    Included: Boarding in Port; Walk along the Coast to the Glacier; Navigation back to the Port; Tour Guide; and Transfer Regular Service. Not included: Food & Beverages; National Park Tickets; Any Personal Expenses; and Port taxes. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    +

    Salidas desde puerto “Bajo de las sombras”: 10:00, 11:30 y 14:30 hs. (consultar por otras salidas) Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico?

    +

    Is Glaciar Perito Moreno con Safari Náutico wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
