I bought a Calafate Airport Transfer on Trip Advisor when I booked my hotel. Upon my arrival at the airport, there was no sign of anyone to greet me. I found the Translados window and presented my ticket. I was informed that it was no good, and anyway it was only for hotels along the main downtown street, and that my hotel didn't qualify since it was adjacent to, but not considered in, the downtown area. So I ended up hiring a private taxi which was and added expense, but which got me to my destination.

I did the full trip from chaltan to Ushuaia. It’s a great tour and I had an amazing time. I booked through Argentina discovery but I believe the actual company which runs the tour is Camino abierto. In my group everyone had booked through different companies. Ana who works for Argentina discovery was very helpful. She always replied to my emails promptly. Even when my payment didn’t go and I had to do the transfer just before I left she was very calm and understanding about it. The phone number on their website isn’t correct but the one on Tripadvisor is correct so use that.
4. Adventure El Chalten
The trekking that undoubtedly must be done in El Chaltén. It allows us, by starting time, to arrive that day to El Chaltén and visit the Laguna de los Tres, wich the base of the Cerro Fitz Roy, staying overnight in the camp at the foot of the hill.
