Great tour
Long drive but the end was well worth it to see the penguins. We made good time by getting organized early and people coming back to the van on time. Because of this, our tour guide made stops along the way back and also gave us a tour of the town. Very good trip and cheaper than the excursion on the ship.

Must ask for Mariana!!
Such a fantastic day! It was a small group tour to peninsula Valdez and Mariana was amazing. She speaks great English, is one of the most knowledgeable guides I’ve ever toured with, and has such a positive passionate vibe about her. She made the day so fun!

Great trip, great guide and spectacular penguins
What made this excursion so special was our guide, Mariana. She was one of the best guides I have ever had on a shore excursion and I have done over 50 cruises!
She engaged us the entire way (a 2 ½ hour trip) with information on the area and on Punta Tomba. Once you get to Punta Tomba you are on your own to wander the area. The lunch was excellent. On the way home she was telling us about the cherries that grow in the region. She was able to stop at a local stand and buy some for the bus! Highly recommend the trip.

A smooth, well‑run snorkelling trip with loads of sea lions and great value
A really enjoyable and well‑run snorkelling trip. Everything was prompt, but relaxed and felt very safe throughout. We saw plenty of sea lions and had loads of time in the water with them, which made the whole experience feel great value.
The trip departs directly from the meeting point, so there’s no minibus transfer — a big plus. It’s about a 25‑minute walk from the cruise port if you’re visiting on a ship, but they make this clear before booking and the meeting point is very easy to find.
There’s an optional photo/video package at the end, but it’s not a hard sell and the price is very reasonable. We were happy to buy it for the memories.
Couldn’t have asked for more.

An excellent excursion for cruise ship visitors
Lucas and the team exceeded our expectations throughout this experience. We were surprised at the very high prices of excursions being offered to us by our cruise line, and opted for this due to the better price. They accommodated our cruise ship's schedule, and the duration of the tour fit perfectly into our day. We were extremely impressed with the team's thorough care and communication each step of the way; they provide you with all the gear and instruction are are especially careful to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe. The guides were extremely knowledgeable, pointing out wildlife and explaining the geography. As promised, we were able to see some sea lions up close which was, of course, the cherry on top. Transportation was included in a comfortable van with air conditioning. I can't say enough good about this team and this experience!

We loved riding in the 4 x 4 and getting to see so much of Puerto Madryn up close. Our guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic to show us the area. He’s also a skilled 4 x 4 driver, taking us into the dunes for an exciting ride. I highly recommend this tour!

Great short trip very good value thoroughly recommend
Great hosting from Deborah and Carlos. Short tour around town past the aluminium factory which they are very proud of, great for me as I’ve worked in Aluminium for over 52 years 😀. Then out to Punta Loma where the seals could be seen from a couple of vantage points. Couple of stops for photos with coffee and local cakes served… great calue

So many penguins!
Punta Tombo was great. Seeing so many warm weather penguins in 1 spot was fascinating. There was a bit of pressure to get off the ship in a timely manner, but as it turns out, it was manageable. Our guide was great. (?Mariana?) she gave a lot of information about the area as we were on our way to see the penguins

The administrative...
The administrative department of this company provided excellent communication, even with a date change. Our tour was well run with Pablo as our driver and Hugo as our guide. Hugo gave us lots of information and answered the questions we had. The penguins were so fun to see up close and there were lots of them. We had a fantastic time!

Long but worthwhile excursion
While this is a long ride to the main attraction it goes rather quickly with the guide giving information and telling you about the area.
Folks should know there are rest stops provided going to and from the main destination -plus one available at the site.

Superb visit to Peninsula Vales
We thoroughly enjoyed the program and organization. Our guide was extremely well informed and interesting and added a lot of good stories and information to the visit. Both the guide and driver went to great lengths to find and fat wildlife throughout the visit which made it a very rich tour. Special shout out for an excellent organization before and throughout the tour. Highly recommended!

Majestic Southern Right Whales Ahoy!
Magical chance to see these amazing creatures close up. Nothing is guaranteed - our guide couldn't find anywhere with orcas to view on our day despite his best efforts. But in addition to whale cows and their calves, we saw sea lions, elephant seals and Magellan penguins. Like so many expeditions in Patagonia, it's a long distance across bumpy roads and a long day - but it's one you'll never forget. Excellent driver and guide.
