Patagonia Tours

In short

Patagonia is not one destination. The north is lakes and forest around Bariloche; the south is ice and steppe around El Calafate and El Chaltén; the far south is Ushuaia. Pick one per four days, or fly between them with a week.

The distances are the thing nobody plans for. Bariloche to El Calafate is a three-hour flight, not a drive. Trying to see the lake district and the glaciers in four days means two of them are spent in airports.

Our Patagonia products are built as four-day blocks for that reason: one region, done properly, with the transfers and park entrances included. Two blocks and an internal flight is the honest one-week trip.

Season matters more here than anywhere else in Argentina. November and March are the sweet spot — long days, thinner crowds, fair prices. June to August much of the trekking infrastructure closes and Bariloche turns into a ski destination instead.

What Patagonia Tours is known for

  • Perito Moreno glacier from the balconies and from the water
  • The Circuito Chico and Nahuel Huapi trekking around Bariloche
  • Eco-estancia stays with full board
  • El Chaltén for Fitz Roy, two hours from Calafate
  • Ushuaia and the Beagle Channel at the far south

Frequently asked

What is the best month to visit Patagonia?

November and March: long days, thinner crowds and fair prices. December to February is warmest but busiest; June to August much of the trekking infrastructure closes.

How many days do you need in Patagonia?

Four per region. Four days gets you the glaciers around El Calafate or the lakes around Bariloche properly. A week and an internal flight gets you both.

Can you drive between Bariloche and El Calafate?

Technically, over about 1,600 km of Ruta 40. In practice nobody does it on a two-week trip — it is a three-hour flight and the road is the holiday, not the transfer.
