El Calafate and Los Glaciares National Park: Sail across Lago Argentino to Estancia Cristina

We cannot stop talking about how this was the best day trip we have ever taken - and we've been travelling for 40+ years! Such a wonderful setting - you really can experience the wildness of Patagonia and get a sliver of what life would have been like on the Estancia. Excellent staff, super friendly guides, and the food was gourmet.  Best lamb stew we've had in Patagonia!

A most interesting day and urprisingly moving.

Good excursion made it better by the excellent guide.  Lunch was included and a pleasant surprise too, thanks to the high quality

Fantastic day. One of our favourites.

A brilliant day out and an excellent guide and a great experience.

Enjoyed the remoteness of the location and the organised activities, although we did find the 14km trek a bit relentless, allowing little time to appreciate the magnificent surroundings. All of the staff were excellent and contributed greatly to the experience.

This was most enjoyable, a boat trip followed by a 4x4 journey and then a walk to see a beautiful landscape. Topped off with a lovely lunch.

"This was an excellent trip, the estancia is well worth visiting."

"The ranch guides were very knowledgeable and the drive to the Upsala glacier stunning. The team is very tight and well organised and really educated the group as well as giving them the chance to enjoy the views. A good balance between information and quiet time to absorb things at your own pace."

"Completely wonderful. We should have booked an overnight at the ranch which looked glorious (though in bad weather this might not have seemed so attractive)."

"Another wow! A long day, but worth it. Facilities and lunch at Estancia Cristina were superb. Extras at the Estancia were very reasonably priced given the opportunity they could have taken of the remote location. Very well thought out execution throughout."
