Grand Patagonia Journey: Bariloche, El Calafate & Ushuaia

Start & end in Buenos Aires 12 days Up to 20

About this trip

This twelve-day route takes you through three distinct corners of Argentine Patagonia, from the lake district around Bariloche to the ice fields near El Calafate and down to Ushuaia at the continent's southern tip.

Expect big, quiet landscapes — glaciers, mountains and open expanses of land that see few people. It's run as a private trip, so the pace and itinerary are shaped around your group rather than a fixed departure of strangers.

This is a sightseeing and culture-led journey rather than a hardcore trekking expedition, with attraction-based hikes built in alongside city time in each base.

What you'll do

  • Explore the lake district around San Carlos de Bariloche
  • Visit Los Glaciares National Park
  • See the Perito Moreno Glacier up close
  • Travel south to Ushuaia in Tierra del Fuego, gateway to Antarctica
  • Take in Patagonia's mountains, ice fields and open landscapes
Good to know
  • Private trip — itinerary and pace are set for your group
  • Suits families and those who prefer sightseeing and shorter hikes over intensive trekking
  • You change base across three main stops: Bariloche, El Calafate and Ushuaia
