What people love about Los Glaciares National Park Tours in August
- Land of Glaciers: El Calafate
It was fantastic. Great experience!
- 4 Days and 3 Nights: El Calafate & El Chalten Majestic Wonders
5 days of fun and adventure
- Treasures of Patagonia
First part of the tour: Los Glacieres Hotel in El Calafate and tour of Perito Moreno Glacier. First of all, the tour guide and bus driver for SayHueque (Sebastien & Daniela) were great. We were picked up as scheduled, the drive was good and safe and Daniela spoke perfect English and gave us detailed information throughout the day. Highly recommend this tour group. The hotel was OK, room mostly clean and comfortable (one of the rooms had a stained bedspread). Breakfast was on the simple side compared to other hotels. Box lunch also very simple. Loved the tour of the Perito Morino Glacier. 2nd part, tour to El Chalten. Did not enjoy the tour company as much. They were nice enough but didn't pick us up in a timely manner. The guide was nice but spoke mostly Spanish on the tour. My husband and I were the only two English people and he barely gave us 5 minutes of instructions. We were supposed to stop at the Park Office for information but they never did stop. The hotel, Pudo Lodge was nice and comfortable. Wifi only available in lobby and still not very good. The box lunch was fabulous. Staff were friendly and helpful. Note that the brochure you have us has some errors in it. We expected a box lunch in El Chalten and had an embarrassing discussion with the hotel about this. It turns out that part of your brochure talks about Torres del Pain and not El Chalten, thus the confusion. I cannot attach the copy of the brochure here but can send it to you if you provide an email address. Overall we were very satisfied with the services of Tourradar and SayHueque. Thank you
What our customers ask about Los Glaciares National Park Tours in August 2026
How long should I plan to stay in Los Glaciares National Park in August?
Plan for 3-4 days in Los Glaciares National Park during August. This gives enough time for key experiences at Perito Moreno Glacier and the All Glaciers boat tour. Guests at Hotel Las Dunas in El Calafate typically spend one day at Perito Moreno one day on the boat trip to Upsala and Spegazzini glaciers and keep a buffer day for weather changes. A TourRadar traveler confirms the well-paced experience: "Everything was organized and well communicated. The pace of the excursion was excellent we don't feel rushed."
What is the weather like in Los Glaciares National Park during August?
Winter conditions dominate Los Glaciares National Park in August with temperatures between -2°C to 7°C (28°F to 45°F). Snow often blankets the walkways and viewing platforms at Perito Moreno Glacier creating picturesque scenes but requiring careful walking. Strong Patagonian winds frequently sweep across Lake Argentino especially near accommodations like Hotel Las Dunas in El Calafate. As noted by a TourRadar traveler: "The navigation was surreal being so close to the glacier in winter conditions."
What winter activities are available in Los Glaciares National Park during August?
August visitors can take the Safari Nautico boat trip from Bajo las Sombras port for close views of Perito Moreno Glacier's southern wall. The Glaciers Gourmet Experience cruise visits the quieter Spegazzini and Upsala Glaciers with comfortable indoor viewing areas. Visitors can also explore the walkway network at Perito Moreno Glacier accessible from El Calafate hotels like Hotel Rochester. One TourRadar traveler shares: "We had the opportunity to have unbelievable views of the glacier and we had the best experience drinking whisky with ice from the glacier."
Are boat tours available in Los Glaciares National Park during August?
Boat tours run regularly in August including the Safari Nautico from Bajo las Sombras port and the All Glaciers excursion. The heated boats depart from Puerto Bandera taking visitors to Upsala and Spegazzini glaciers. Boats leave from points near El Calafate where visitors often stay at Hotels Las Dunas or Rochester. A TourRadar traveler describes the experience: "The navigation was surreal being so close to the glacier. One of the most beautiful landscapes I've seen."
How much does it cost to visit Los Glaciares National Park in August compared to peak season?
August offers better value with 4-day tour packages starting at 364 USD compared to peak season rates over 800 USD. Hotels like Las Dunas and Rochester in El Calafate reduce their winter rates by 20-30%. The park entrance fee stays at 20 USD year-round. According to a TourRadar traveler: "This is a great tour to get a glance of Patagonia if you have limited time and budget."
