This guided tour is ideal for visiting the Perito Moreno Glacier balconies from El Calafate. It includes plenty of time to walk around the walkways at your own pace and at your leisure. The tour is not physically demanding and is an ideal activity for seniors or groups with children.

The Perito Moreno: Balconies tour begins when we pick you up by bus from your hotel in El Calafate to travel 78km to the glacier. During the tour, you will learn about the geology and ecology of the region while enjoying landscapes with lakes, streams, forests and snow-capped mountains.

Once inside the Los Glaciares National Park, stops will be made at panoramic points until you reach the western end of the Magallanes Peninsula, from where you will begin the walk along the balconies. These have a total length of 5.5 km and are at different levels, so you will see the Perito Moreno from different perspectives and balconies. From there, you can marvel at the front of the Perito Moreno Glacier, appreciate its vibrant blue tones, observe the imposing ice walls and listen to the thunderous sounds of the ice breaking and falling into the water, creating a unique sensory experience.

Additionally, you can include an optional one-hour boat tour or the Touch the Glacier with Navigation excursion to walk through the forest next to the Perito Moreno Glacier and touch its walls. You can also add a lunch box or have lunch at the restaurant located at the beginning of the balconies.

If someone in the group is taking the Minitrekking Perito Moreno tour, the transfer from El Calafate to the glacier can be combined in the same vehicle and once you reach the glacier, the group can split up. You will all share one hour visiting the balconies together.

Once the tour is over, you will return to El Calafate after having experienced a truly unforgettable encounter with nature and the wonderful Perito Moreno Glacier.
