Description
Embark on a unique walk through the city, exploring the most emblematic and charming corners.
We start at Punta Walichu, a fascinating archaeological site just 8 km from the center. There, you will travel back in time as you discover the traces of the first inhabitants of these lands. A walk among eaves and caves will reveal impressive cave paintings (originals and reproductions), while you enjoy an unparalleled panoramic view of Lake Argentino and the majestic Andes Mountains.
On the way back, we will tour the historic streets of the old town, where the first buildings of the pioneers intertwine with the present in the vibrant civic center. Our guide, an expert narrator, will transport you to the past to learn about the history of the first settlers, while revealing the secrets of the flora and fauna that enrich this small tourist gem.
On the Paseo Costero and Bahía Redonda, on the shores of Lake Argentino, nature is shown in all its splendor with abundant birdlife that will capture your attention.
The tour continues at the Historical Interpretation Center, where, through a self-guided tour, you will be able to explore at your own pace the most relevant moments of the region, from the ice ages to the present. The reproductions of dinosaurs that inhabited these lands will transport you millions of years back, turning this space into one of the most outstanding paleontological museums in Patagonia.
To finish, we will enter La Chacra Las Moras, a corner full of life and flavor. Here you will discover an authentic place of production of fine fruits and fresh vegetables, a delight for the senses that will leave you with an indelible memory of El Calafate.

Vale muchísimo más de lo que cuesta. El personal de tierra fue amable desde el primer contacto. Muy buena relación precio calidad. Sin dudas una de las mejores experiencias del viaje.

Lo disfrutamos mucho, aunque hay cosas por mejorar. Por el precio que pagamos, la verdad que rinde muchísimo. Lo de Viaje fue lo mejor de la visita. La comida adentro es carísima, conviene llevar algo. Buena opción, sobre todo si es tu primera visita.

Lo mejor del viaje
Muy contentos con la elección. Pagamos bastante menos que otras opciones y la experiencia fue igual de buena. Volvimos dos veces a Tiempo en el mismo día. Nos atendieron por WhatsApp para una duda y respondieron en minutos.

Se pasó volando y nos quedamos con ganas de más. Muy prolijos con los horarios. Un día completo, salimos agotados y felices. Muy recomendable para cualquier edad.

The kind of thing you still remember years later. A full day, we came out exhausted and happy. We went back to Journey twice in the same day. The pre booking support answered all our questions clearly. I would recommend this to anyone visiting El Calafate.

Una experiencia redonda. No te podés perder Tiempo. Pagamos bastante menos que otras opciones y la experiencia fue igual de buena. Lo de Armonía fue lo mejor de la visita. Lo de traslados ida y vuelta desde su hospedaje en el Calafate funcionó sin problemas. El punto de encuentro estaba bien indicado y fácil de ubicar. De lo mejor que contratamos por internet.
