Very relaxing bus ride to our destination. Not too much to see on the trip but worth the drive to see penguins.

Amazing Adventure with Magellanic Penguins

We were able to literally walk with the penguins in the reserve of Magellanic penguins. The provider contact, Romina provided WhatsApp communication in addition to communicating via Tripadvisor to ensure we get clear understanding of where and how to meet, address questions, and get our diet restrictions as she provided lunch that included ham and cheese sandwich, empanadas, sweets, apple, and water. We ended up booking a second tour with this company as our cruise ship docked one day in advance of schedule. Romena addressed our needs immediately and even gave us a private tour of Peninsula Valdez with a wildlife photographer! That was such a treat!

Long time in mini-bus

The tour was exactly what was explained in the itinerary. Please realize it is a 2 1/2 hour mini bus ride (kind of cramped) to get there. We had to take time to buy our tickets and use the restroom, etc. We ended up having one hour at Punta Tomba. We saw a lot of penguins, but if you’ve already been to Magellanic Island, that would have been enough for us. Nothing was wrong with the tour, but realize you do spend five hours in the mini bus. We got back to the port on time, but we did not have any time to tour the city.
Great small group, 16 people, tour to Punta Tombo.
