  • Fun tour to penguin colony and nature park

    Nice tour, only with too many people in a too old van, should have gotten a 4x4, but was too busy according to provider. No discount

  • Summer day in the Falklands

    On one of the last days of summer, we experienced the weather and strong winds - sun, rain, sleet, sun - all in the same day. Our driver, Lincoln, took us to Bertha's Beach, Gypsy Cove and a drive thru of Stanley. We were able to see some Gento and a King penguin s well as take in the plant life during a walk at Gypsy cove. Overall a pleasant day. The only surprise - read the literature closely. We thought we would be in a car with another couple, but instead we were in a mini-bus with 12.

    Nice trip. Nothing extra ordinary, saw the penguins from half mile distance. They wouldn't let you get close due to different reasons, until you pay big then it's ok to walk among the penguins. Rest of South America was very impressive

    I can’t remember if I booked this as a small group tour but there were just 3 of us in a 4x4. Our tour guide Cheech was one of the most informative, very pleasant, accommodating guides I have ever encountered on a tour. I learnt a lot not only about penguins but life living in the Falkland Islands. I wish I could have a guide like Cheech on all my tours
