Patagonian Dinner and Astrotourism Under the Stars

Calafate Night is a unique nighttime excursion that combines nature, gastronomy, and astronomical observation in an exclusive setting in Argentine Patagonia. From the moment we pick you up from your hotel until your return, you`ll live a complete experience to rediscover the starry sky of El Calafate like never before.

The Experience Begins: Panoramic Transfer along Route 40

The adventure begins with the transfer service from your hotel or accommodation in El Calafate. We travel along the mythical National Route 40, enjoying impressive landscapes with views of the Lake Argentino, the Santa Cruz River and the snow-capped peaks of the Andes Mountains. Additionally, along the way, you`ll be able to observe native fauna, such as guanacos and Patagonian foxes.

Estancia Cruz Aike: Patagonian Tradition and Culture

We arrive at the emblematic Estancia Cruz Aike, located just 50 km from El Calafate. Here you will have free time to tour the facilities and experience rural Patagonian life firsthand, surrounded by a natural landscape of hills and steppe.

Traditional Patagonian Dinner in a Unique Setting

The evening continues with a delicious regional dinner served in a cozy barbecue area on the ranch. The menu includes typical Patagonian products, with a starter, a main course of Patagonian lamb, and homemade dessert, accompanied by drinks. We also offer vegetarian and gluten-free options with advance reservation.

Astrotourism: Observe the Southern Sky with a Professional Astronomer

After dinner, an unforgettable astrotourism experience in El Calafate awaits you. A specialized astronomer will introduce you to the fascinating world of astronomy through a short projection and then begin observing the night sky using professional telescopes.

You will discover the southern constellations, the Milky Way, nebulae and learn about mythology and astronomical phenomena. The activity includes a fun light painting session and a souvenir group photo at no additional cost.
