Don’t go with a tour group - The trip was booked for 12.30 but we were not collected from our hostel until 12:45 then spent another 15 mins driving around picking up others. So we didnt leave El Calafate until after 1pm. We were told the guide would provide interesting information on the way to the glacier but her poor quality sound system (coupled with a strong accent when speaking English) meant that we found it hard to understand her. She persisted in using the microphone even though she could have spoken directly to us as I think we were the only non Spanish couple on board. We were persuaded to add the hour-long boat trip to the visit, but it wasn’t worth it as the boardwalks give you excellent views. Doing the boat trip meant we only had 1.5hrs to walk around exploring the different views of the glacier on foot. We were asked if we minded being dropped in the centre of town instead of at our accomodation and we said that was okay, assuming she meant near our turnoff, but it was way down the other end of town at least a kilometre away from our hostel. I would not recommend this tour company. I do recommend visiting the glacier - it was spectacular. But don’t bother with the boat trip.
