Full description
Enjoy a full day experience aboard the María Turquesa Cruise that travels to the most impressive glaciers, sailing with the highest comfort. Begin with the transfer from your hotel to the Private Port La Soledad. After traveling 47 KM enter the National Park and board the boat. Cross a peninsulas encounter called "Boca del Diablo" to enter the North Arm of the lake. Navigate between icebergs through the Upsala Canal where you can observe the Upsala Glacier about 10 km away. Go to the Spegazzini Channel to see hanging glaciers such as Dry Glacier, Heim Sur, Peinetta and disembark at Las Vacas Post where you will make a 30-minute walk through a lovely forest. Continue to the front of the highest glacier in the National Park, the Spegazzini Glacier (135 meters above the lake level/440 ft above the lake level). Take advantage of the time, take pictures and contemplate in silence with the surrounding natural beauty. Head to your final destination at Perito Moreno Glacier, where you will disembark on the walkways to culminate a day full of magic and surprises. Finally, take a bus in which you will return to your hotel in El Calafate at the end of the day.

We had only a few days in El Calafate and wanted to see as much of the national park as possible. This full day of cruise and footbridges of Perito Moreno was perfect. The cruise was informative and comfortable. Lunch options were good! We enjoyed each of the guides and learned a lot about the history, geology, and conservation efforts of the area. The pace of the day was very good. We appreciated the hotel pick-up and drop-off.

Amazing day, probably one of the best days of my life! Everything went well. The communication and coordination with the tour operator. The boat is comfortable and the service is great. Food was served hot and tasted good. The glaciers are breathtaking and the footbridges were just the cherry on top.
