Breathtaking experience - This is an incredible once in a lifetime experience. Worth the cost!! The boat trip gave amazing views, as did the walk up to the glacier. We spent ages walking on the glacier, with up close amazing views from various different angels. Great guides, really friendly and knowledgeable. Finished with relaxing walk along the walkways which gave different views of the glacier.

A must-see activity - You must do it, you travel to the caulk then you must make the decision to do it and live this experience, it is safe, it is incredible, it is somewhat demanding about the effort, a little high the price but it is worth I take you to catwalks at the end then it's the most complete since you also sail

Very informative. Highly recommend - 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.

Great experience - 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

The walk was out of this... - 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 😍

Booked small group tour but ended up in a big bus tour! - 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.

BEWARE - YOUR BOOKED TRIP MAY BE CANCELLED AT THE LAST MINUTE - 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.
