I booked a small group tour (less than 10 people) and paid USD 500 for this. But I ended up in a bus tour with 40 people!! The description page on TripAdvisor also says this tour is supposed to no more than 10 people. It took one hour in the morning to pick up all the guests to the bus. And the excursion on the ice was also in large group of 20 people.
I tried to contact the vendor, but no reply. I filed a complaint via TripAdvisor and asked for partial refund. The dared to reject the request and told TripAdvisor that my tour was in group of 10. Fortunately, i happened to record my trecking so I finally to got refund.

Our guide Nico was incredibly friendly and helpful. Some of the other staff were a bit pushy to rush everyone through each section, however overall a great experience

My partner and I went to El Calafate specifically to do this tour. We booked in and received confirmation of our booking. On the day that we arrived at El Calafate we were notified by email that the trip had been cancelled. No good reason was provided. We spent 3 hours trying to get onto another mini-trek but nothing was available. In the end we did not do a Mini-trek. We were extremely disappointed to say the least. It is extremely unlikely that we will ever get back to El Calafate so this opportunity was lost. So if I were you I would not book with Viator for this trip in case you are cancelled at the last minute like us.

The walk was out of this world - a once in a lifetime opportunity. A bit frustrated by the unupdated information on the exchange rate for park entrance, which resulted in us having to use a credit card instead of cash. A bit of a hiccup that left a bad taste about the tour group, and not the tour. The tour was AMAZING 😍

The bus picked us up from our hotel with about 20 other people. Note that the time quoted for bus arrival is really just the start time to commute from hotel to hotel. You will need cash for the park entrance fee -- it is not included in the price you pay online. The trek itself was easy (we're in our 30s and not overweight). The guides were knowledgeable and conduct tours in english or spanish as needed. Save photos on the boat tour for the way back from the glacier. Make sure on the catwalks that you just sit and watch (and listen!) for the glacier to calve. Amazing experience. In general, this was a really cool tour. Worth the money, as it is a once in a lifetime type of experience. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

The tour was really a great experience of the glacier!
Amazing views of the cracks with the different blue shades and the surrounding scenery was really awesome!
The tour started later than it was supposed to, with no explanation about it.
The bus is comfortable and it stops first at the walkways, (it was well organized from there on)!after that it goes to the boat to get to the other side of the lake, where the trekking will take place.
The trekking on the glacier it was a lot easier than I thought it would be, based on previous reviews.
It was a great experience and I had a lot of fun!
Towards the end, it’s offered “whiskey on glacier rocks”, glacier water and chocolate.
I wish we could have more time to explore and take pictures... I felt rushed.
Overall totally worth it!

Perito Moreno is amazing and a must see. I enjoyed the additional views we gained from the boat ride to the mini trekking as well as while trekking. I felt like the group
was a bit to large for this activity because it felt like we had to stay in a single file line too much. Just not my way of hiking/exploring. But I understand it’s necessary for safety, but it does take some of the fun away. It’s still worth it though, so I would recommend it.

From start to finish we were impressed with this tour which was well organised and ran smoothly.

The scenery was breathtaking and it was a truly unforgettable experience.

The small size of the group allowed for a more immersive adventure & I would not hesitate to recommend this trip or Tangol.
