Imagine standing 100 meters from a wall of ice 60 meters tall, 5 kilometers wide, and 30,000 years old. Then it cracks. A sound like a cannon shot echoes across the lake. A chunk the size of a building peels off and crashes into the turquoise water. This happens multiple times a day. The Perito Moreno Glacier is one of the few glaciers on Earth that's still growing — and you can witness it from boardwalks just meters away.
Why go private?
Group tours give you 2 hours at the glacier. We give you the whole day.
⏱️You set the schedule
Leave when you want, stay as long as you want. No "be back at the bus by 1:30." If a massive calving is about to happen — you stay.
📸Scenic stops on the road
The 80 km drive features condors, flamingos, Lago Argentino views. Group buses don't stop. We do.
🚗Just you in the vehicle
No sharing with 18 strangers. No waiting for everyone to get off. No compromising on the itinerary.
🌍English-speaking local driver
Daniel has lived in El Calafate since 2012 and drives this road every week. Real stories, real context.
💰Surprisingly affordable
The transfer is per vehicle, so for 2, 3 or 4 passengers the cost per person keeps dropping — an exclusive vehicle and the whole day at the glacier.
🏨Door to door
Hotel pickup, hotel drop-off. No walking to meeting points, no waiting for other hotels.
