Private tour to the LARGEST Glacier in Argentina + El Chaltén
Discover two of the most emblematic destinations in Patagonia on a private full-day tour from El Calafate, with a bilingual guide. This experience combines a tour of the mythical Route 40, a navigation on Lake Viedma with views of the impressive Viedma Glacier, and a visit to the town of El Chaltén. The adventure begins with the transfer from your accommodation in El Calafate. During the trip you will traverse the immensity of the Patagonian steppe, with stops at the historic Parador La Leona and at different scenic points of Lake Viedma. Upon arriving at Bahía Túnel, we will embark to sail on Lake Viedma and get close to the largest glacier in continental Argentina. From the water you can admire its imposing ice walls, the floating icebergs, and the immensity of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field. Then we will take a trip to the town of El Chaltén, where we will take a short hike to see the Chorrillo del Salto Waterfall.
Take an unforgettable Patagonian adventure from El Calafate! Travel Route 40 to Tunnel Bay Port and navigate the turquoise waters of Lake Viedma with breathtaking views of the Huemul Massif. Enjoy a gentle hike to a panoramic viewpoint and marvel at the imposing Viedma Glacier, the largest in Argentina. End the day exploring the charming village of El Chaltén before returning to El Calafate.

Sail close to the impressive Viedma Glacier, taking in spectacular views of ice walls and floating icebergs. In the afternoon, the journey continues to El Chaltén, the trekking capital of Argentina, where you'll have free time to explore the village before an easy walk to the beautiful Chorrillo del Salto waterfall, surrounded by native forest. This is the perfect option for travelers who want to experience Patagonia beyond hiking, combining nature, comfort, and a truly unique glacier experience in a single day.
