How the combo works

Your arrival day,
made the most of

Instead of losing your arrival day just getting to the hotel, we go straight to El Chaltén and you walk in front of Fitz Roy the same day you land. You choose: direct (I drop you off in El Chaltén, one way) or the Full Day (round trip the same day). Landing late? This guide to your flight day explains what works for each arrival time.

I pick you up at FTE airport

I wait for you at Comandante Armando Tola International Airport (FTE) with a sign with your name and track your flight in real time: if it's delayed, I wait anyway. I give you a hand with the luggage and we set off north, relaxed.

Straight to El Chaltén

We go straight to El Chaltén — about 220 km along Route 40, around 3 hours, with the steppe and the mountain range as backdrop. In the direct option I take you and drop you off in El Chaltén: it's a one-way transfer (if you need to come back later, that's another transfer).

Full Day in El Chaltén with stops and viewpoints

Or make it Full Day

If your flight gives you the whole day, choose the Full Day: we stop at the viewpoints along the way, I take you to El Chaltén's key spots and we make the most of every hour. The day pays off double from the moment you step off the plane.

The difference

I adapt
to your flight

I build the service around your flight time. You tell me when you arrive or leave, and I organize the day so you make the most of El Chaltén without risking your flight.

You arrive early
Morning flight →
full day in El Chaltén
You leave in the afternoon
Flight ~5pm → we leave early,
viewpoints and back in time

If your departure flight is in the afternoon, we leave very early, do the Cóndores Viewpoint and the Chorrillo Waterfall, and I bring you back in time so you don't miss your flight. You gain a whole day of Patagonia that would otherwise be lost just on transfers.

What you need to know
about the combo

🕐
Tell me your flight time
It's the key detail: with your arrival time (and your departure time, if you return the same day) I build the plan so you make the most of it without rushing and get back in time.
🧳
Luggage, no fuss
You travel with your suitcase in the trunk, or if your accommodation is in El Chaltén you drop it on arrival. We can also stop to grab something for the road. No extra cost.
📍
220 km · about 3 hours
From El Calafate and the airport to El Chaltén along Route 40, with stops at the viewpoints along the way and views of the mountain range.
🥾
Accessible viewpoints
The Cóndores Viewpoint and the Chorrillo Waterfall are short walks, ideal if your flight leaves you half a day. For Fitz Roy or Laguna de los Tres, the full day is best.
⏱️
The day pays off double
Instead of losing your arrival just getting to the hotel, you discover El Chaltén the same day. You're left with an extra free day for the rest of your trip.
🧥
Warm clothes and comfy shoes
In El Chaltén the weather changes fast. Bring a jacket, hat and sneakers or boots within reach in your carry-on, not in the big suitcase.

Founder and private driver
Hi, I'm Daniel. I arrived in El Calafate in 2006, fell in love with Patagonia and in 2012 moved here for good. In 2024 I created Transfer El Calafate by Jerez to welcome every traveler the way I'd like to be welcomed myself: with time, good vibes and everything sorted. I wait for you at the airport with a sign with your name, give you a hand with the luggage and we plan your El Chaltén day around your flight. On the way north I stop at the best viewpoints, take those photos you'll later want to show everyone, and tell you the story behind every corner. The car is just for you and your people, no rushing and at your own pace. And if the flight is delayed, don't worry: I'll wait for you.

"You're not just another passenger: you're my guest in Patagonia. Tell me what time your flight is and I'll make sure your first day is unforgettable."
