For the price, we loved our accomodation which was in El Calafate Hostel, and the tour of Perito Moreno. Our guide, Cece, short for Elizabeth, is very knowledgeable. The length of the tour was perfect. We had all the time to see what needed to be seen. The only negative thing was that we expected our pick up time at 7:00 as stated in the tour but the pick up actually started at 9:00. Good thing someone was available to answer our question ASAP thru WhatsApp. I would recommend this to all my friends. Rate 4.8 just bec of the misinformation.
