It was an excellent tour, thousands of penguins and plenty of time to spend interacting with them. Valerie, our guide was excellent..

We did this from a cruise ship and the communication was great with the tour operator (Dos Oceanos). Tour guide was easy to find at the end of the dock. The guide was very conscious about making sure we were back in time for the ship departure. The 2.5 hour drive (each way) was worth it. There were lots of penguins to see - they are everywhere. We also saw baby guanacos.

Great experience, I would recommend going on this trip in December when more penguin are still there. We went on March 9, 2025 and most of the penguins were gone. Our driver was awesome and he gave use alot of Information about everything of the area.

The penguins were amazing to see and watch. There are so many and so close to the walkway. Easy to photograph and video.

Great tour to see penguins.
Tour guide was great also.
Only downside is that we waited for over an hour for 2 people that never came, so we had 1 less hour with the penguins.
Taking into account that we only had 2 hours to see penguins, 1 hour would make a big difference.
They could have a better system for people who do not show.
But the tour itself was awesome.
Response from Host, Feb 2025
Evandro, we really appreciate your review. We'll definitely use it to improve. Thanks a lot!

It was an amazing tour. Daniel (our tour guide) and Lucas (our driver) were amazing. Daniel talked about Pinguins and Patagonia the whole 2.5 hours. When we got to the Pinguin colony we were awarded by hundreds and hundreds of Pinguins and chicks. Daniel had provided to many valuable information that we knew what to expect and how to behave around those funny birds. He was always close by to answer questions. Lucas, our driver, brought us back safely to the cruise ship drop off point. It was a trip of a lifetime.

We thank you Claudia for choosing us to live this unforgettable experience! See you soon!

The 2.5 hr drive to get there was tough, but we had a very good guide. It's a pity our ship's stay wasn't long enough to have more time at the Penguin reserve
Response from Host, Feb 2025
Thanks Jeremy for your review, we hope to have you again in the city so you can visit another of our highlights!

Our guide met us as soon as we got off the cruise ship and was able to get us out to the Penguins well before all the buses arrived. He was informative and and social during the entire trip out as well as back. We were able to experience this without the crowd and that is so appreciated. Saw thousands of Magellanic Penguins
Response from Host, Feb 2025
Thanks Stephen, it's a pleasure to welcome travelers like you. See you next time!
