What you can expect

  • Start your day with an exciting adventure as we head to the heart of the Punta Tombo Protected Natural Area, home to one of the largest Magellanic penguin colonies in the world. From the early hours of the morning, we embark on a fascinating journey that will take us through the landscapes of Patagonia. During the journey we will witness the wild beauty and serenity of this unique corner of the planet, where the horizon is lost in the vastness of the steppe.
    Here, nature is shown in all its splendor. During your stay, you will have the opportunity to thoroughly explore the trails of the Pingüinera, where thousands of Magellanic penguins go about their daily lives in a spectacle that you rarely have the opportunity to witness so closely. Additionally, you can visit the Punta Tombo Interpretation Center, a space designed to give you a deeper understanding of this unique ecosystem and the species that inhabit it.
    Lunch is at the expense of the passenger. We will be able to use the facilities of the place, which has a Cafeteria-Restaurant, bathrooms and trails. If the weather permits, the trails will invite you to walk and feel the Patagonian wind on your face, a perfect moment to connect with nature.
    In the afternoon, we will return to Puerto Madryn, taking with us indelible memories of a unique day in one of the most emblematic natural paradises of Patagonia.
