What you'll see and do
Perito Moreno
During the 80km (50-mile) journey toward the glacier, you will admire the Patagonian landscape from the very beginning: Lake Argentino with its Redonda Bay, streams, forests, snow-capped mountains, and low mountain ranges. A bilingual guide will accompany you throughout the entire trip, providing necessary and interesting information to help you enjoy the journey and learn about the history. Before reaching Los Glaciares National Park, you will make a stop for the first panoramic views. Travelers must pay the ticket at the gate, where the route leading to the walkways begins. The exploration of the walkways is self-guided until the designated meeting time, providing enough time to walk at your own pace and take photos from the various viewing platforms. The Main Balcony: Featuring the best views of the glacier walls, it is located very close to the entrance. The Lower Balcony: This is the closest point to the glacier front and is located 400 meters (about 0.25 miles) from the start.

Why this scores 54
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Guided Tour to the Perito Moreno Glacier: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for El Calafate.
How much does Guided Tour to the Perito Moreno Glacier cost?
+
Prices start at $61 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 Guided Tour to the Perito Moreno Glacier take?
+
Plan for about 8.3 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 Guided Tour to the Perito Moreno Glacier worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in El Calafate, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Guided Tour to the Perito Moreno Glacier?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Guided Tour to the Perito Moreno Glacier suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8.3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Guided Tour to the 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 8.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Guided Tour to the 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.
