Highlights

In our agency, we organize excursions in small groups, which have the advantage of being specially designed to have fun, active activities, and with a lot of contact with nature. We have new and very comfortable vehicles, and excellent guides who enjoy their work and will help you discover the secrets of Patagonia and its incredible fauna: whales, elephant seals, penguins, dolphins...

  • Air-conditioned vehicle

Itinerary

  1. We leave from Puerto Madryn towards Punta Tombo. The penguin colony is open throughout the season from September to April, months where thousands arrive.

    2 h

  2. There thousands of penguins in their natural habitat move slowly, sometimes hundreds of meters, from their nests to the sea, to feed and then return; and in summer we will be able to see their newborn chicks. During the journey we will probably see herds of guanacos and groups of rheas, running through the Patagonian steppe, and maybe a fox or an armadillo.

    4 h

Cancellation

Free cancellation up to 24 hours before the experience starts, for a full refund.

About Puerto Madryn

Puerto Madryn is a Patagonian port on a wide, sheltered gulf, and the starting point for whale watching and for penguin and sea lion colonies.

Puerto Madryn faces the calm Golfo Nuevo on the Atlantic coast of Chubut province, a seaside town of broad beaches and a long waterfront promenade. Welsh settlers landed on this shore in 1865, and the valley towns of Gaiman and Trelew to the south still keep that heritage. The town itself is small and relaxed, with diving, sailing and sea views drawing most people outdoors.
