The tour itself was very good with a knowledgeable guide and beautiful scenery on the lake and at the glacier. There seems to be something lost in translation. As part of the instructions is a note about having to pay for National Park entry fee. They give you a website that is terrible and not clear what ticket you are buying. I ended up with the wrong ticket and was not told I could pay in the bus. This needs to be made clearer.
The tour itself was great. You spend a long time on the boat going to with 300m of the glacier so you have ample
Opportunity to get great photos of the glacier. Afterwards, you go to the balconies where you have a few hours to have a walk ok. The trails and grab some foos.

It was a good trip I was disappointed we thought we were going to get to walk on the glacier unfortunately that activity was not available since it’s winter time and it can be dangerous. I wished that it would have stated that in the description. I think it would have been cheaper if we rented a vehicle and had gone on our own. Overall it was a great experience to take pictures and learn about the Perito Moreno Glacier. Our guide was excellent and extremely knowledgeable about the region.
