Experience the diverse wildlife of Valdés Peninsula: whale watching, elephant seal sightings, and walking among penguins at Punta Tombo, capped with a visit to a premier paleontological museum.
Upon arrival in Trelew or Puerto Madryn airport, you will be taken to the hotel of your choice. (Private service - driver and guide).
Overnight in Dazzler Puerto Madryn, Bahia Nueva Hotel (or similar).

You will visit one of the sites chosen as Natural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO, which, due to its unique characteristics, houses a variety of marine and terrestrial fauna rarely seen in one place.
We will come looking for you very early to start discovering the natural reserves and the most outstanding tourist attractions of the Valdés Peninsula Protected Natural Area, among them are: the Ameghino Isthmus Interpretation Center, Puerto Pirámides, from where whale watching sailings take place (from June to December); then you can see from the way the Salinas Chica y Grande or El Gran Salitral; which are among the largest depressions in America; the coastal settlement of marine elephants in Punta Delgada and Punta Cantor; and penguins in Caleta Valdés.
On the tour we will have the chance to see a lot of terrestrial fauna such as guanacos, gangs, foxes, armadillos and choiques. Throughout the day you will be advised by our guides, expert interpreters of Patagonian nature.
Whale watching boat navigation included. Then the boat moves away from the coast, the engines stop and for a moment there is a silence cut only by the mixed sounds of seagulls, seagulls and cormorants. It's a moment of waiting... Someone observes a large concentration of birds in the distance. The boat approaches and suddenly, when the whole group is attentive, something silver and white emerges next to the ship, and the loud sound of a body moving on the surface of the sea is heard.
Overnight in Puerto Madryn.

We will leave Puerto Madryn in the morning to visit the largest Magallanes Continental Penguin Reserve, imagine walking among more than half a million penguins, since that is what we will do when we arrive at Punta Tombo for the time necessary to get to know their habitat and way of life.
Our guide will accompany you during the walk where you will make an interpretation about the life of penguins, discovering details at every stage of their stay in Patagonian lands.
