Meet your local guide near the Piedrabuena Pier and travel approximately 180 kilometers south through the vast landscapes of the Patagonian steppe. Along the way, your guide will introduce you to the region, its wildlife, and the fascinating life cycle of the Magellanic penguins.

Upon arrival at Punta Tombo, enter the reserve and enjoy time to explore its natural trails. Walk through one of Patagonia’s most remarkable wildlife areas and observe Magellanic penguins at close range as they move between their nests, the paths, and the coast.

Depending on the day and season, you may also spot other native wildlife such as guanacos, rheas, Patagonian maras, and coastal birds. Your guide will accompany the group throughout the visit and help you understand the animals’ behavior while ensuring that the reserve’s wildlife regulations are respected.

This shared tour is intended exclusively for cruise passengers. Departure and return times are coordinated with your ship’s schedule, giving you the peace of mind to enjoy Punta Tombo and return to Puerto Madryn in time for embarkation.
