Itinerary

Welcome to Puerto Madryn

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).

Meals Included: none.

Puerto Madryn: Península de Valdéz (Full Day)

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.

Meals Included: Breakfast.

Upon arrival at the Sea Lion Colony (Otaria Flavescens), after 20 minutes of navigation, we will approach the coast up to a safe distance for them with the objective of interpreting the place without stressing them out, hoping that they will interact with us from spontaneously.

    One of the best trips of my life

    I had a wonderful trip and would do it again in a heartbeat! Eva helped me plan everything and was always available before and during my trip to answer questions. She tailored accommodations and travel times within the country to make my visit relaxed and enjoyable at the same time. I felt a sincere desire in her to provide me with the best experience. I also appreciated the driver they chose for me, Eduardo. He was not only trustworthy but also very knowledgeable about the area highlights and history. I would highly recommend Argentina Pura and Eva to anyone who would like to visit Argentina.

    It has been a positive experience working with Argentina Pura from the first engagement when I filled the form on their website till the time we’ve returned back home. They were quick to respond and helped to tailor a well planned trip. It was challenging to include all the destinations I asked for in the time we had for the trip, and yet they managed to do it in the most efficient and enjoyable way. What was more amazing was how smoothly everything ran. All the flights were on time, the transfers, the excursions. It was well organized and the team was highly professional, friendly, knowledgeable and spoke English extremely well. We had the most amazing time in Argentina and big part of it is thanks to the professionalism of this agency. Highly recommended!

    A pleasure to travel to Argentina

    I have already traveled with this company on 3 occasions. To Mendoza, to Bariloche and surrounding areas, and the last time to the North. It was a pleasure to "travel to Argentina", and with them it becomes even easier, since they made everything very easy for us, the hotels, the transfers and the excursions. Never a problem. To recommend!!
