On our boat trip along the southern face of Perito Moreno, we'll cruise along the glacier's blue ice floes and set off on a hike along the coastline. What are you waiting for?
Tour Details
Having met up at the Bajos las Sombras port, which is only 4 miles (7 km) away from the Perito Moreno glacier, we'll set off at 10:15 am across Rico Lake.
After we've spent around 20 minutes cruising along the southern face of Perito Moreno, we'll disembark on the opposite shore. Once we're back on dry land, we'll begin a hike that'll last around 1 hour and 30 minutes.
During our hike, we'll even be able to touch the Perito Moreno glacier. Our route will also run alongside the shores of the lake, where we'll cross a lush forest with views of the glacier. If you're into photography, you'll be able to take some incredible photos of this enchanting place.
Our hike will come to an end at its starting point, from which we'll hop back on the boat to admire the bluish-ice floes of Perito Moreno's southern face from the boat's panoramic deck.
The boat trip will come to an end at the Bajo las Sombras port, where we'll say our goodbyes at 1:15 pm.

If you go for this option, we'll pick you up from your hotel in El Calafate at 9:00 am and head to the Bajo las Sombras port to begin our boat trip.
The rest of the activity will be the same as in the description above. However, once the boat trip has come to an end at the Bajo las Sombras port, we'll hop on a bus that'll take us to the Perito Moreno footbridges. You'll be able to eat your packed lunch here while admiring beautiful views of the glacier.
