7 Day Patagonia Itinerary, incl. El Calafate and El Chaltén
The wonders of Patagonia unfold over 7 days across 5 key destinations. Walk 17km on Fitz Roy trail, marvel at Perito Moreno Glacier, and stay at comfortable lodges while enjoying optional experiences like Rancho Aparte's traditional cuisine.
- Day 1
El Calafate to El Chaltén
The 3-hour bus ride from El Calafate Airport to El Chaltén takes you past Lake Argentino and Lake Viedma. Stop for 15 minutes at Parador La Leona, a historic spot where explorer Francisco Moreno survived a puma attack. "The drive offers stunning views of Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre in the distance - try to sit on the left side of the bus for the best photos."
- Day 2
Fitz Roy Trek
Get an early start at 7 AM for the challenging 17km Laguna de los Tres trail. The last kilometer is tough with a 400m climb, but seeing Fitz Roy's granite spires makes it worthwhile. Pack warm layers since mornings can be near freezing even in summer. Take at least 2 liters of water. You won't find water refills after Poincenot campground.
- Day 3
Cerro Torre Trail
The 18km Laguna Torre trail is easier but just as beautiful. Walk through beech forests along the Fitz Roy River valley to reach a glacial lake with floating icebergs. The best part is watching Cerro Torre's peak emerge from the clouds. "Start by 8 AM - the afternoon winds near Laguna Torre can be intense enough to knock you off balance."

7 Days in Argentina, incl. Buenos Aires and Patagonia
This Patagonian adventure spans seven days: 2 nights in Buenos Aires, 2 nights at Perito Moreno Glacier, and 2 nights in Tierra del Fuego National Park.
- Days 1-2
Buenos Aires
Start your Argentina adventure in the capital city. Book your stay in Palermo or Recoleta for a great mix of safety and local character. Begin your first full day with a city tour of the historic center. Get to Plaza de Mayo early before the crowds arrive then explore La Boca's vibrant Caminito street in the cooler morning hours. A recent visitor shared: "The Sunday antiques fair in San Telmo was a highlight - get there before 11 AM to really browse the stalls without the tourist rush."
- Days 3-4
El Calafate & Perito Moreno Glacier
Catch a morning flight to El Calafate (3 hours) with a quick 20-minute transfer into town. Use your first day to adjust to Patagonia's unpredictable weather patterns. Pack plenty of layers as temperatures can change quickly. The next day you'll see the incredible Perito Moreno Glacier. The drive from town is about 80 minutes. Try to reach the viewing walkways by 9 AM before the big tour groups arrive. Plan about 2.5 hours to walk the glacier circuit. Wear good shoes since the metal walkways can get slippery. You'll never forget the booming sound of ice breaking off into the lake.
- Days 5-7
Ushuaia & Tierra del Fuego
Take a 2-hour flight to Ushuaia the southernmost city in the world. The airport is just 15 minutes from downtown. Stay on San Martin street to be close to good restaurants and the port. Spend a full day exploring Tierra del Fuego National Park just 11km from the city. A half-day tour will show you the best spots like Lapataia Bay and Roca Lake. One traveler noted: "The views along the Lapataia River were incredible but the wind really picks up after 2 PM - go early and bring a warm jacket even in summer."
7 Days in Patagonia, incl. Los Antiguos and Chile Chico
Rolling through 5 cities across Argentina and Chile over seven days. Daily excursions showcase cave art, marble formations, lake circuits, and national park wonders.
- Day 1

Cueva de las Manos

The site involves moderate hiking at elevation so bring water and wear good shoes. A recent visitor shared: "The guided tour at Cave of the Hands was excellent - having an English-speaking guide made all the difference in understanding the incredible history of these ancient paintings."

What people love about 7-day Patagonia tours
- 7-days "W Trekk" discovering Torres del Paine National Park
Very entertaining and fun was this wonderful trip. Everything was perfect. Maria, was an excelent guide, very safe and professional. I would choose them 1 to 1000 times more
- Torres del Paine - The W Trek
Great trip! I highly recommend it!
- Across the Andes: From Torres del Paine to El Calafate
In my opinion this trip allows you to visit the best destinations in Argentina: Iguazu falls, perito moreno glacier and ushuaia´s city. Mercedes had also helped me to book all domestic flights needed on this trip so I dont have to book them on my own. The selected hotels very great, so comfortable and clean and the optional tours that the company offer are also recomendable.
