This epic journey takes you from El Calafate to Ushuaia, the world’s southernmost city, at the very edge of South America. Along the way, you’ll witness the dramatic peaks of Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre—two of Patagonia’s most iconic mountains—stand in awe before the immense Perito Moreno Glacier, and cross the historic Magellan Strait into Tierra del Fuego. From glacier walks to windswept landscapes at the end of the world, this adventure showcases the very best of our Argentina Tours .
Argentina and Chile Glaciers and Peaks of Patagonia
Drawn from the full tour dossier — the standout days, encounters and views our specialists keep coming back to.
The highlights
Every Argentina tour opens in Buenos Aires with time to absorb one of South America's most layered capital cities. The ornate mausoleums of Recoleta Cemetery, the cobbled antiques lanes of San Telmo, and the vivid street murals of Caminito in La Boca each carry their own character, whilst Plaza de Mayo, the Casa Rosada, and Teatro Colón anchor the city's political and cultural story. An evening tango show with dinner — including one performance at the Art Deco Tango Porteño theatre — rounds off an introduction to a city where European architecture and Argentine street life meet at every corner.
Discover Patagonia's most iconic mountain scenery and wildlife through guided walks in Torres del Paine National Park.
Witness this vast, active glacier up close in Los Glaciares National Park — one of the world's few advancing glaciers.
At the opposite end of the country, Patagonia delivers landscapes of exceptional scale. Three days of trekking from El Chalten lead to Laguna Torre beneath Cerro Torre, the glacial cirque of Laguna de los Tres below Mount Fitz Roy, and the glacier-fed alpine lake of Lago del Desierto, reached by boat through surrounding forest. El Calafate provides access to Perito Moreno Glacier — five kilometres of walkway platforms wind above this advancing wall of ice — before the tour reaches Ushuaia, where Tierra del Fuego National Park encompasses walks to Roca Lake and Lapataia Bay, and a Beagle Channel boat excursion passes Birds Island, Sea Lions Island, and Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse.
