This 10-hour tour in El Calafate begins with an optional transfer from central hotels to Los Glaciares National Park. Upon arrival, participants board a boat for a 20-minute sailing on the South Arm of Lake Argentina, reaching the edge of the Perito Moreno Glacier. After disembarking, guides provide crampons and lead a one-hour minitrekking on the glacier.
