Description
To keep in mind The visit to the Perito Moreno glacier could be replaced, with additional cost, by the hiking on the glacier. Please consult us about the restrictions and the allowed age for this activity. Day 1. Arrival and reception at the airport. Transfer to the selected hotel. If you have time, do not miss the opportunity to visit the Glaciarium, a glaciological museum or enjoy a tour which will allow you to discover the steppe landscape with lunch or dinner. Day 2. B Departure from the hotel towards the Perito Moreno Glacier, within Los Glaciares National Park, declared a Natural Heritage Site by the UNESCO. This glacier is an impressive ice river with a surface of 257 square kilometers (99 square miles) and the height of the front wall oscillates between 50 and 60 meters above lake level. This frozen river descends from the continental ice field and in its slow advance, causes detachments and outbursts that make the glacier a wonder in constant movement. The visit can be complemented (optionally) with a one-hour boat trip, which allows us to enjoy a different view of its front and get a better dimension of the height of its peaks. Time for lunch (not included). In the afternoon, return to the hotel. Day 3. B Day at leisure ideal to take boat trip through Lake Argentino or enjoy one of the many activities which will allow to get to know unique landscapes. Day 4. B At due time, transfer to the airport. Notes: Arrival transfer with guide. Departure transfer only driver. National Park entrance fee is included.
