5.00What can I say about Terry and Terraventura Outdoor! Very friendly guy and flexible with the itinerary. We went to the rocks near Viña to see sea lions first. Then on to the wetlands where we saw around 50 species of birds including grebes, coots, skimmers, plenty of wildfowl and waders. Lunch stop next for some empanadas and then up to Chacagua Island to see the Humboldt penguins. A great experience - thanks Terry!
