Follow the shores of Lago Argentino until you reach the entrance of Perito Moreno National Park. You'll receive a brief orientation and then you are free to explore the footpaths overlooking and surrounding the Perito Moreno Glacier. In the afternoon you will board a catamaran and view the glacier's majesty from the lake to better appreciate the sounds and movements of this living mass of ice.

Today you'll visit another, more remote glacier. Your adventure starts with a beautiful boat ride across Lago Argentino and up the Cristina Canal, giving you great views of the Upsala Glacier. When you arrive at shore, drop your bags off at the secluded Estancia Cristina, where you will stay for the next two nights, and gear up for a 4x4 trip through this remarkable landscape to a glacial lookout right above Upsala.

Now that you've explored Patagonia by boat, road, and foot, perhaps you'd like to spend today galloping across the steppe? Take a half-day horseback riding tour to Laguna de la Pesca, or if you're comfortable on a horse, take a full-day excursion to View Point Cristina. Alternatively, you can choose from numerous trekking tours if you're more comfortable on your own two feet.

Enjoy a final leisurely breakfast surrounded by the sweeping Patagonian plains at the remote Estancia Cristina before boarding a boat for the scenic trip back to El Calafate. Once you’re back on dry land you'll be transferred to the airport for your flight back home or to your next South America travel destination.
