Itinerary
The Experience in Gourmet Glaciers invites you to visit the National Park’s three main glaciers on the same day, also offering a walk through the forest on the Spegazzini Canal and a delicious meal aboard the modern María Turquesa Cruise.
The excursion starts early in the morning when you will be picked up by your hotel (optional) to take you to Punta Bandera, where at 09:00 hs. you will board at the La Soledad Private Port. There begins the navigation towards the North Channel of the Argentine Lake where we will visit the Dry Glacier, Heim Glacier, and the Spegazzini Glacier. This navigation allows you a striking approach to this glacier that is known for its height at its front, which reaches 135 meters, being the highest in the National Park. Then we will disembark at Las Vacas Post for a 40-minute walk, coordinated by the guide.
Next, we will sail until the succession of icebergs of the most varied colors and shapes that give notice to the proximity of the Upsala glacier that covers an entire valley with an approximate extension of 765 km2 and a length of 53 km. While enjoying a panoramic view of the glacier and the magnitude of its landscape, lunch is served on board. In the afternoon, the navigation continues through the Canal de Los Témpanos until reaching the north wall of the Perito Moreno Glacier, in constant progress, and whose falling glacier chunks are an incomparable natural spectacle. Afterward, we return to La Soledad port at 6:00 p.m. to finally return to the town of El Calafate.
The Experience in Gourmet Glaciers is an ideal plan for all those passengers who wish to visit The Glaciers National Park in an exclusive and ideal way for families.
