Well worth the journey!

5.00It’s a 5 hour round coach trip but well worth it to see the penguins. We also saw Argentinian llamas, reas, birds of prey and wild horses along the way! Our tour guide was knowledgable and very friendly as she described the history of the area as well as the nature/animals. The lunch box was also of good quality and variety.
Mariana made the trip!

5.00Amazing trip. I know it's sacrilege but I'm not even a penguin fan, but Mariana was super knowledgeable and made the trip extremely fun. She let us touch a penguin skull and fin and told us all sorts of interesting facts. Her enthusiasm made the trip more enjoyable. We had 2hrs at Tombo which was more than enough time. On the way back we had a lunch .. two sandwiches (one ham and cheese and one chicken), chocolate muffin, banana, crackers, and granola bar.. a lot of food. At Tombo, there were plenty of penguins and guanacos. The views were also amazing Would 100% recommend

4.00It was a good tour and the guide was informed about the area (sound system could have been better). Our guide was sure to make us aware that we were to stay 2 meters from the penguins, some other tours didn’t! Lunch was 2 sandwiches which I thought was a lot I think one would have been sufficient. The description in the web was accurate, they do mean 2 hours to the reserve and 2 hours back, something to consider!
The penguin experience...

5.00The penguin experience was incredible. Bus ride was two hrs and over some pretty rough roads but worth it. Our guide however had such broken English she was impossible to follow, or understand. That part was very disappointing.
Gobs o' penguins.

5.00Long trip. 2.5 hours one way. Mind boggling number of penguins some with nests very close to boardwalk. Also guanaco and mara.
Great Tour!

5.00This was an excellent tour and worth every penny! We had a great guide (Martin) and an very safe driver (Noel) and there was never any issue in getting back to the ship on time—something every cruise person on a private tour worries about. Yes, a long drive to and from, but with the lively and informative banter from our guide, the time flew by. And the penguins! Thousands everywhere! You will not be disappointed in this one and as an added bonus, a much better value vs. a similar tour booked off the ship. Highly (HIGHLY) recommended.
A beautiful experience!

5.00We did two tours with Animal Travel and we will definitely book with them again! They were flexible, understanding, patient, and helped us adjust our plans when we made booking errors and wanted to change tour dates. We enjoyed a private auto tour with Guillermo and WOW, it was just perfect. He picked us up from our hotel and we enjoyed a full day with him to see the penguins, wildlife, and beach. He made sure our kids were always comfortable and we chatted the entire day about Argentina and its wonders. He’s very knowledgeable and we felt safe and cared for the entire time. He adjusted the day to align it with our preferences and we really enjoyed our time in nature with him. His passion is tourism and people and he felt like family. We definitely recommend making time for this tour and requesting his guidance!

5.00It was beautiful to go to the penguin, it was time for newborn eggs and pigeons so it was quite an experience. My 4-year-old son enjoyed it especially when the penguins passed by and I could see them walking
Excellent!!!!
