Perito Moreno Boat Tickets: Where to Buy Each One

The two tickets a Perito Moreno boat needs: the boat, on GetYourGuide, Viator or from the company, and the national park entrance, at the gate or online. What each covers and when to buy.

Updated November 2026

A Perito Moreno boat takes two tickets, bought separately: the boat, and the park entrance for Los Glaciares. The boat you can book on GetYourGuide or Viator, or from the company that sails it, online or at the port. The park entrance, ARS 50,000 a person at the general rate, is bought at the park gate by card or in pesos, or online; none of the GetYourGuide boats on this site includes it. Book the boat first, because that fixes your day, and buy the park entrance for the same date.

Hielo y Aventura S.A’s own site or the Bajo de las Sombras portThe Safari Nautico in pesos, online or at the port before boarding: the same hour as the Nautical Safari on GetYourGuideThe company’s own terms
Southern Spirit Lago Argentino’s own siteThe Moreno Spirit in pesos, ARS 72,000 at the general rate: the same hour as its north-wall boat on GetYourGuideThe company’s own terms

GetYourGuide checked November 2026; the companies’ own sites read November 2026.

In the summer months, buying the Safari Nautico ahead rather than at the port is the company’s own advice. Paying Southern Spirit Lago Argentino by bank transfer or in cash on its own site takes 10% off, and its boat can also be reserved on GetYourGuide and paid for later.

The park ticket

Map of the Perito Moreno Glacier front: the walkways (balconies) on the Canal de los Tempanos side, the Bajo de las Sombras landing on Brazo Rico, the port of the boats across the Brazo Rico, and the road between them, 6.1 km by road
Both ports, Bajo de las Sombras and the one below the walkways, are inside the park, past the gate on the road from El Calafate.

Both boats leave from inside the national park, so you pass the Rio Mitre gate on the road from El Calafate. The Administracion de Parques Nacionales sells the day pass there by credit card (Visa or Mastercard), debit card or cash in Argentine pesos, and online. From 1 June 2026 the general rate is ARS 50,000 a person, and children up to 6 enter free. The same pass covers the walkways.

On a day tour the park ticket is still yours to buy. Most sellers leave it to you at the gate; on Bross Travel’s glacier day it can be added at checkout, and on Viator CALAIO VIAJES Y TURISMO’s walkways and boat cruise includes it.
