Prices are per person, from, for the 2026 to 2027 season. Per day is a comparison aid, not how the trip is billed. Every itinerary is tailor-made and quoted individually.
Fitz Roy spends most of its time inside a cloud. A two-day visit that catches a bad morning sees nothing at all, and people do go home without having seen the mountain. Three days means one walk planned, one day in hand, and a reasonable chance of standing under the granite with it visible.
Both start in the village and both take most of a day. Laguna de los Tres ends with a steep hour under Fitz Roy; Laguna Torre is longer and flatter with the glacier at the end. Three days fits one comfortably and both if the weather holds.
One each if you are lucky
If a full day on foot is not the plan, the viewpoints over the Rio de las Vueltas and the walk to Chorrillo del Salto take a couple of hours each and still put you in the landscape. The village is not only for long walkers.
Two hours, not eight
There is no airport, so every visit starts with the road north along Lago Argentino and Lago Viedma. That drive is part of the trip rather than a transfer, and it is worth doing in daylight.
Travel in the light
The walking in detail is at El Chaltén hiking, the glacier three hours south at 3 days in El Calafate, and the region at Patagonia tours.

Every quote we send lists this in writing, trip by trip. As a rule, this is how a Patagonia package is built.
Hotels selected and checked by our team; private transfers between airports, hotels and excursions; excursions with English-speaking local guides; entrance fees to Los Glaciares and Tierra del Fuego national parks; daily breakfast and the meals marked day by day; a local WhatsApp support line for the whole trip.
International flights to and from Argentina; travel insurance; meals not marked in the itinerary; personal expenses and gratuities; optional activities, which we price in writing beforehand. Domestic flights inside Patagonia are quoted separately or included depending on the package, and your quote states which, with the amount, so the total is clear before you book.
Patagonian wind changes plans, and we plan for it. Every key day has a same-region backup: if the wind closes the glacier boat, you see Perito Moreno from the walkways instead; if the Fitz Roy viewpoint is in cloud, we swap days inside your itinerary. Wherever the schedule allows, we rebook the highlight inside your trip at no extra cost.
