Blue Safari

The Blue Safari is designed for those who, besides sailing in front of the Perito Moreno Glacier, dream of touching it and enjoying it up close but do not want to walk on the glacier as in the Minitrekking, but prefer a less physically demanding experience. In this new excursion we will get to touch the glacier with our hands! The Blue Safari begins in El Calafate when the bus departs to Los Glaciares National Park. Once in Puerto Bajo de las Sombras, only 7 km from the footbridges, we will take a boat to cross Lago Rico, and after sailing for 20 minutes we will disembark on the opposite shore. Little by little we will walk for 30 minutes, always with a view to the south wall of the Glacier in case we are surprised by a thunderous detachment. Once next to the ice, it will be time for an unforgettable experience? touching the Perito Moreno Glacier itself! There we will fully enjoy its intense and varied blues, whites and whimsical shapes. We will have time to take lots of pictures and then we will return to the boarding place always accompanied by an experienced guide. The total hike is approximately 1.30 hours through a natural terrain of sand and stones with some slopes and stairs. The tour will be along the shore of the lake and through a lush forest overlooking the glacier. Finally, we will take the boat to appreciate from the water, and a few meters away, the entire south face of the glacier and see every detail of the icy marble wall. Once at the port, we will take the bus to the footbridges, where we will have 2 hours to enjoy the incredible panoramic view and the picnic, which you should bring with you. We will arrive in El Calafate after crossing the Patagonian steppe, with our souls charged with the natural energy of this unique glacier. We look forward to being your hosts!
