Incredible views great contrast with glaciers - Very professional. The view from El Balcón and other stops was incredible, and we went on a cloudy day, I imagine it is even more amazing on a clear day. You pass through at least 2 climate zones and see how the plants differ. In a short distance, you see varied types of sedimentary rocks and have an opportunity to walk among them. An excellent contrast to the glacier tour we did the previous day. The pictures in tripadvisor provided an accurate, if limited preview. We asked for an English speaking guide. They promptly informed us one was not available for our booked time and offered another. We understand a little Spanish so we decided to go ahead. Our guide Rodolfo spoke slowly and watched for our understanding. He also had several reference pictures ( maps, animals, plants) to help communicate. He was patient with our limited spanish vocabulary. We had a great time!

excellent - The calafate balconies were spectacular, I went to the highest one, a very nice panoramic view of the city, I went with the extreme Patagonian company, I recommend that company. If you come to Calafate, do it, you won't regret it.
