ABOUT MARPATAG's SANTA CRUZ CRUISER - in their own words:
Along with a small group of passengers, we will navigate during three days among stunning ice floes until we reach the most important glaciers of the Parque Nacional los Glaciares: Upsala, Spegazzini, Mayo, and Perito Moreno.
Majestic blue and turquoise millenary ice, of up to 5 kilometers (3 miles) wide; beautiful reddish sunsets; and unique nights, special for looking at the constellation map, make this unforgettable landscape the destination of the most demanding travelers. Along the trip, we will learn about the evolution of glaciers as well as the history of the pioneers in the region.
The Santa Cruz ship, equipped with huge panoramic windows in the cabins and communal lounges, allows the contemplation of the unique sights that Lago Argentino (lake) offers.
The adventure of the The Spirit of the Glaciers includes landings in specific panoramic sites so as to observe, interpret and understand the most surprising characteristics of the place.
We offer more than a trip. We propose a unique experience in which the passenger will feel part of nature as never before. Welcome aboard to a unique experience in this trip to the spirit of glaciers.
