Full Day, Todo Glaciares Boat Trip including Shared Transfers. This boat
trip exploring the north branch of Lake Argentino leaves from the port of Punta Bandera, some 47 km west of El Calafate. The itinerary crosses the Boca del Diablo to the Upsala Canal and the boat then navigates between large icebergs that emerge from the front of the Upsala Glacier. After entering the Spegazzini Channel the first view of the Glacier Seco appears, before continuing until the front of the Spegazzini Glacier, where the Heim Sur and Peineta glaciers can also be seen. There is then a chance to disembark at the Spegazzini Base. A short walk along a forest path leads to the Spegazzini Refuge. It is an easy stroll on a 300-meter path on firm ground, with viewpoints overlooking the entire Bay of Los Glaciers. At the refuge lunch can be bought (or bring your own), you can also visit the shop or simply contemplate the amazing landscape from the deck. For those who like to walk a bit more, they can take the longer mountain path back, a trek of medium difficulty along a wooded path with incredible views. This path ends back at the landing point, the Spegazzini Base, and is around 700 metres long. You will be collected from the hotel and dropped off after the tour.Captain Club: Additional supplement included. Service on board in both
navigations until opening of the Refuge (Date TBC). Exclusive lounges with
preferential location. Reception on board assisted by a host and a bilingual
guide (Spanish and English) from Los Glaciares National Park. Includes open
bar and coffee. The service includes: Appetizer (table of cheeses and cold cuts
with eggplant paté bruschettas with confit tomatoes), Main Dish (casserole of
choice Lamb, Vegetarian Lentils, or Chicken Ragout), and Dessert (dulce de
leche mousse with cramble and red fruits). Menu subject to change.

You will be picked up from the hotel in plenty of time for your flight out from El Calafate. On arrival at Puerto Iguazu airport, please look out for a sign with your name, the guide will then take you to the hotel. Overnight at Lois Suites Iguazu in a Studio Junior, with breakfast included.

Hotel: Lois Suites Iguazu (Studio Junior)

Meal: Breakfast

Your National Park entrance ticket is included. Full Day Private Iguazu Falls Tour. Iguazu Falls, the largest waterfalls system in the world, are truly awe-inspiring to behold, spanning the border between Brazil and Argentina. Though Brazil boasts better views of the falls, Argentina is blessed with about 80 percent of this natural marvel’s 275 separate cascades. Paved trails and catwalks wind their way around the falls—sometimes reaching within an arm’s length of the water—and a free train connects the main trailheads. We like to start the tour early in order to try and beat the crowds and get the
first train to the Devil’s Throat. There are walkways over the islands which take you to a balcony over the falls and the most spectacular view of the entire Devil’s Gorge. You will then have plenty of time to walk the 800 metres of paths on the upper circuit. These new suspended walkways are detached from the jungle surface so as to protect the fauna by preventing disruption of the natural trails. From this circuit you have a higher sight of the falls, providing you with a magnificent panoramic view. It takes around 1 hour to cover the upper circuit. The lower circuit contains 600 metres of walkways, also detached from the jungle floor, and has great views from below and around the falls. If you have booked - or would like to book locally - the boat trip under the falls, the guide will take you to the boarding point. Once you have finished all the circuits, you go back to the visitor centre where the vehicle will be waiting for you.

Meal: Breakfast

The entrance fee for Iguazu Brazilian National Park is included. Half Day Private Tour to the Brazilian side of the Falls. This half day tour explores the Brazilian side of the Falls. Iguaçu Falls (Cataratas do Iguaçu), the largest waterfalls system in the world, are truly awe-inspiring to behold. Though
Argentina boasts longer trails around the falls, Brazil is blessed with the best
views of this natural marvel’s 275 separate cascades, which span the border
between the two countries. Take in full-frontal views of Devil’s Throat (Garganta del Diablo), San Martin Island, and more from the short-but-sweet catwalks that wind their way around the Brazilian side of Iguaçu Falls. Though less forested and natural than the Argentinean trails, you’ll find significantly better panoramic views of Iguaçu Falls in all its unforgettable glory—and they even offer an elevator to a postcard-perfect viewpoint over Devil’s Throat, considered the most spectacular scene in the park. If coming from Argentina, please don't forget your passport to cross the border.
