Day 1Your Journey extension begins as you arrive in Buenos Aires and fly to El Calafate. You willbe welcomed by your local host at the El Calafate Airport where you will then transfer toyour hotel to check in and relax.

Finish the night with included dinner at your hotel, including one glass of wine and one soft drink.

Day 2Begin your morning with breakfast at the hotel before starting a day of touring Perito Moreno Glacier and Los Glaciares National Park.

The Perito Moreno Glacier is the stunning centerpiece of the southern sector of Los Glaciares National Park. Locally referred to as Glaciar Moreno, it measures over 18 miles long, over 3 miles wide, and almost 200 feet high. This is one of the largest glaciers in the world. What makes it exceptional, as well as the biggest attraction at Los Glaciares National Park, is its constant advance—up to 6.5 feet per day, causing building-sized icebergs to calve from its face and create a great thunder as they crash into the deep waters of the Argentino Lake.

Head back to the hotel to relax over an included dinner with a glass of wine and soft drink.
