Explore Tigre’s waterways by speedboat, spot wildlife, try water skiing, and reach quiet Delta channels on a private Buenos Aires tour.

“I had the best day with Sergio and Etienne!! They showed me interesting places along the delta in Tigre and took me places to swim and water ski. I learned a lot about life in Tigre but even more important, I had so much fun on the boat, zipping through the rivers between islands. I had a permanent smile on my face all day and was only disappointed when it was over. I highly recommend this tour over other delta safaris if you would like to try water skiing to be free to move around the boat. This is a proper speed boat unlike others that use zodiacs and you…”

Review of El Calafate’s 4x4 steppe safari, with guanacos, condors, archaeology, mountain views, and a memorable estancia lunch.

“My two kids and I had a wonderful experience on this tour with our guides Frederico and Nacho. We enjoyed the off roading opportunity to see deeper into El Calafate and the casual pace that allowed for stops to photograph animals and drink maté. The highlight was the delicious lunch served at the estancia. A truly special experience that I would recommend to anyone visiting El Calafate.”

Review of Blue Safari near Perito Moreno Glacier, with boat rides, forest hiking, walkways, prices, tips, and practical booking advice.

“My problem is with the tour company and not the experience itself. I had initially booked the ice trekking tour back in September for our tour in January. I had pretty much booked my flights, itinerary, stays ALL around the ice trekking; however, within 2 weeks of the experience, they canceled the ice trekking on us saying there was no more room on the tour despite us having booked MONTHS earlier. I was beyond frustrated with the company as I would have changed plans had they let me know earlier but with 2 weeks notice, there were no more options left. This left me gutted as I reached out to…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 12 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $128

Review of El Calafate’s Blue Safari to Perito Moreno Glacier, with boat ride, coastal hike, park walkways, pricing, timing, and practical tips.

“Transportation to and from the glacier was very well organized. Tour information and scheduling was communicated very timely and again organized. The boat tour was also very enjoyable. Ride on the top deck and experience the Patagonian winds! The ground trekking portion was guided by well informed, knowledgeable and friendly people. Highly recommend this tour. For people that do not live in Patagonia it is a very rare occasion to experience a glacier, it almost has a life of it's own.”

“It’s not really worth it, you’re better off doing the pasarela hike. There’s nothing wrong with this tour it’s just not that interesting. Also with a history ticket you need to exchange this at the ticket booth before you can board the boat. There is also an entrance fee for the national park”
