Taxis and 'remises' (private car services) are readily available outside the arrivals terminal. The journey to the town of El Calafate takes approximately 20-25 minutes. Fares are typically fixed, but it is advisable to confirm the price with the driver before starting your trip.
Several car rental agencies, including major international and local companies like Hertz, Avis, and Localiza, have desks inside the arrivals hall. Renting a car is a popular option for exploring Patagonia independently. It is highly recommended to book your vehicle in advance, especially during the peak tourist season (November to March).
