Great trip to the Glacier - Breathtaking views, informative and friendly bi-lingual guides. The trekking was not too difficult and there was an abundance of stops to take great pictures.

Amazing Experience - The mini-trekking is an experience you will not forget. The tour is extremely well run and given in either Spanish or English with 2 guides per group of approx. 15 people. You will see amazing blue glacial ice as you hike while the guide explains the formation and history of the glacier. My spouse in her mid-50s was a little tentative about walking on the glacier. However, the guide who stayed at the back of the group held her hand when she needed extra support on a few sections of the ice. The guides are super knowledgeable, helpful and friendly and took many pictures of us. Even though they’ve done this countless times, they made it feel special. We would highly recommend the mini ice trekking trip.

Great experience - We loved it.My friends and I are not very fit 55year olds and it was perfect. Take your lunch there is nothing to eat on the glaciar though you drink your best whiskey ever.

Perfect amount of time up close with the glacier - Seeing the glacier from above on the viewing platforms and walking through the blue crevasses of the glacier was unforgettable, lots of great photo ops!

Good tour - We had a great experience. It includes a boat tour near the glacier then you will do the hike up and down the glacier with your crampons which lasted about 1-1 1/2 hr. And at the end of the tour you get a shot of whiskey. Then they will take you to the balcony view at the visitor center for 1 hr.

Good tour but quite bussy - Every thing is well organized. In the Morning you can see the glacier and walk by yourself . By 1 pm they bring you to the boat which crosses the lake. Here as well you can see the glacier from the boat - takes 15 min. Then they divide the groups in English and Spanish and you walk 25 min to the glacier. After getting helmet etc you start to walk on the glacier for about 1,5 h. This is really very very touristic as many people are doing it. It’s good organized but already very commercial as soo many groups and people. Each group has about 15-20 people. But all in all good tour.

This excursion was ok. ... - This excursion was ok. If you are going to travel to Calafate then you do need to do this trip as there are amazing views and scenery. The trip was a little dull overall and I don’t feel it was worth the money which is why I gave it 4 stars. I do recommend people do it for the experience but don’t expect too much trekking or actual time on the ice. My husband and I are glad we did it but were not like, “oh my gosh, how amazing” afterwards. Side note: we booked a tour in English. This means we were the only 2 people out of 40+ people on the bus who spoke English. It seemed like people were annoyed by this and it made us a bit self conscious. I wish they would have been more open w the communication that it was a bilingual tour.
