The Blue Safari is designed for those who, besides sailing in front of the Perito Moreno Glacier, dream of getting close to the glacier ice!

This tour is a wonderful option to see, be amazed and marvel at the Perito Moreno Glacier, allowing us to return with a soul full of natural energy.

Once in Puerto Bajo de las Sombras, just 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?

We will be able to 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.
