Half day tour in which aboard 4x4 Land Rovers you will skirt the shores of Lake Argentino, being ideal for the day of arrival or departure from El Calafate. The activity offers an anthropological and historical focus on the passage of man in these lands, rediscovering the experiences of the first expeditions that ventured into the unknown through the Santa Cruz River and Lake Argentino.

The tour focuses on the history of the first contacts of the expeditionaries with the Tehuelches (natives of the region), crossing cliffs and marveling at views of Lake Argentino and the Andes.

After being pcked up at your hotel in El Calafate, the first stop is along the lake where native flora and fauna will be interpreted and an explanation on glaciology and geology will be given.

The second stop will be on the cliffs facing the lake, from where you will have magnificent views of the surroundings.

Finally, at the third stop, you will visit the archeological zone. Here, you can appreciate the innovative art through paintings in the caves on the shores of the lake, where for thousands of years the Tehuelche culture has left its marks on the rock and that today we can interpret. It is there, inside the cave, where you will have lunch or dinner, enjoying a unique experience in a totally natural environment that will transport you to the remote years of the first explorers.

After the tour and lunch, you will return to El Calafate.
