Itinerary
We depart for the Punta Bandera port, 47 km from the city of El Calafate, where upon arrival, we welcome you at our cozy boarding terminal along with part of our team, who will guide you through the pre-boarding process. If by this point you don’t have the entrance to the National Park, we will inform you where to purchase it.
Once on board our comfortable boats, where we are all ready to offer you the best service, the Sunset begins. We navigate through the Northern Branch of Lake Argentino, crossing the Boca del Diablo towards the Spegazzini Canal, which will offer you unique views of some beautiful hanging glaciers such as Seco, Heim Sur, and Peineta, which are the prelude to the main spectacle: the Spegazzini Glacier. The largest of all awaits you to offer an imposing view.
Then you will disembark at our exclusive Spegazzini Base; right in front of the Glacier; to enjoy our great refuge that has all the services you need during your stay and that will allow you to live truly unique moments with its breathtaking panoramic views.
And to crown this moment, we will sail back to the Upsala Canal to experience the unique sensation of sailing among the icebergs that detach from the Upsala Glacier. A wonderful experience.
Sunset is much more than a navigation. It’s an experience unlike anything you know and that cannot be described in words, giving you the best sunset in Patagonia. So do not hesitate. You have to be there.
