The day is at leisure to discover this wonderful city on your own.
Late morning flight to El Calafate. Upon arrival, meet and transfer to hotel.
Board an exclusive MarPatag cruise to Los Glaciares National Park on the waters of Lake Argentino. This “Gourmet Glaciers Experience” is a cruise for up to 28 passengers who want to know the Spegazzini and Upsala Glaciers more intimately. It includes a four course tasting menu presented by the chef on board the vessel.
See the amazing Perito Moreno Glacier on the southern arm of Lake Argentino towering 240 feet above the lake level – it’s the world’s largest active glacier. Enjoy a cruise with spectacular views of this Ice Age relic declared by UNESCO to be a Universal Patrimony of Humanity. Return to El Calafate.
Transfer to the airport for your flight to Iguassu where you will be welcomed and transferred to your hotel.
Morning tour of the Argentine side of Iguassu Falls including the impressive Devil’s Throat Falls. The falls span two and a half miles, wider than Victoria Falls, higher than Niagara Falls and more beautiful than both. In the afternoon, board a specially built raft, which travels upstream to the “water wall” of the falls.
Visit the Brazilian side of the falls for a fabulous scenic walk. Afterwards, flight to Buenos Aires.
Transfer to airport for return flight.
