What you can expect

Experience an unforgettable adventure in the mysterious Tierra del Fuego and get a close-up view of the majestic colony of king penguins, the world's second-largest penguin species.

We'll start with pickup from your hotel in Punta Arenas (urban area) to take a ferry across the Strait of Magellan to the town of Porvenir. There, you will enjoy a short city tour and a stop for lunch.

Next, we will visit the King Penguin Nature Reserve, where you will have time to walk along the trail and quietly observe these unique birds in their natural habitat.

Later, we will continue our journey to Punta Delgada, the narrowest part of the Strait, for a second ferry crossing (approx. 30 minutes). Along the way, you will discover the historic Estancia San Gregorio, founded in 1878 and still featuring its original buildings.
