If we had traveled in September-October at the start of the season, I would give this a five star review, but we were there at the end of the season in March. Instead of seeing thousands of Magellanic penguins, we saw maybe 100, very close up which was neat. And the area is beautiful. But it’s a 2 1/2 hour drive from Puerto Madryn. I don’t know if we would have done it if we knew how few penguins were left. Thankfully, we were the first tour group of the day and had the place to ourselves for quite a while. Definite good fortune as it got very crowded later. Our tour guide and driver were both very good. They gave us a quick drive through downtown to show us where the highlights are and took us to the cave memorial. Very much appreciated!
Hello Jill, Thank you very much for sharing your experience and for your kind words about our guide and driver. March is indeed the very end of the penguin season at Punta Tombo, when many Magellanic penguins have already migrated back to the ocean, which naturally reduces the number of animals present. Even so, we’re glad you were able to see them up close and enjoy the beauty of the area — and that arriving early allowed you to experience the reserve before the crowds. We truly appreciate your visit and your feedback.
Small group, small vehicle. Frequent rest stops on this long drive from the port. Guide and driver were excellent with communicating the nature observed during the trip. Penguins were during the moulting season and were easy to observe from a boardwalk at the park. Up close with Magellanic penguins. Small cafe and shop at the park.
Hello Lesek, Thank you very much for your review. We’re glad you enjoyed the small-group experience and the frequent stops along the way, as well as the information shared by our guide and driver. Molting season at Punta Tombo is indeed a special time to observe Magellanic penguins up close from the boardwalk. We appreciate you joining us and hope to welcome you again in Patagonia!
Great communication with vendor who was able to adjust the tour schedule when our ship changed day of arrival in port. Marina our guide and our terrific driver delivered us safely to and from the penguin habitat. We learned not only about the wild life but also about life in Puerto Madryn in years past and now. Really appreciated the early pickup that enabled us to tour the reserve at our leisure before the buses arrived. Well worth the long drive; probably even more spectacular earlier in the year. Highly recommend!!!
Marika. Thank you so much for your comments. We were able to do the entire tour that way thanks to your punctuality and the fact that the boat was in the city for several hours. We are grateful that you chose us and remain at your service.
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!
Thank you Stephanie we are glad you liked your tour to Punta Tombo and that you enjoyed being with the penguins. Hope to welcome you another time!
Trip to Punta Tombo to see the Megellanic penguins with a stop at dinosaur sculpture. While the drive was long, the tour guide Marianna made the trip enjoyable with information about the area, its history and and animal life.
Thank you Kenneth! It was a pleasure to receive you and your brother! We are happy to know you liked the tour. Have a safe trip back!
We had a very nice tour with Max. He drove us to Punta tombo from puerto Madryn to see Magellan penguins. He was very pleasant and knowledgeable about the area and a safe driver.
Hello! Thank you for leaving us a review! We are glad that you liked the tour with Maxi. Hope to see you another time!
Lots and lots of penguins. Something like 20,000 nesting burrows. A nice area to view them swimming from above the beach, also a herd of guanacos in the park, and some cute little “scuis” (cava). You will see penguins
Hello Cheryl ! Thank you, we are glad to know you liked the tour Hope to see you another time!
A very complete experience to see the life cycle of the Magellanic Penguins. Mariana very friendly and dominates the subject. I definitely recommend this experience.
Hola Luis! Muchas gracias por dejarnos una reseña de su experiencia. Nos alegramos saber de que todo estuvo bien! Esperamos recibirlos en otra ocasión, saludos del Equipo de ST
Punta Tombo is a beautiful place with great opportunity to see penguins and walk around them. The scenery is great for pictures. I won’t recommend this tour to cruise passengers with limited time on port. If your disembarkation time is after 9:30am and all-aboard time is before 5:00pm it will be tight. It takes 2-3hrs to arrive to Punta Tombo Tour agencies take long to check in groups and fill up the buses. It is not organized and very chaotic. Our experience was that after getting checked in and sitting inside the bus for a while, we were asked to move to a different bus to accommodate a bigger group. When we did this our group had to pickup leftover seats and our family couldn’t sit together for such a long drive. The whole tour started at 10:30am giving us only 50 minutes to spend a Punta Tombo after the long drive. Our tour guide Laura was very knowledgeable and made the journey very entertaining and did her best to keep us on time. The tour agency should improve the checking process for cruise passengers and only use smaller buses. As a cruise passenger, I would’ve rather experience the beauty of Puerto Madryn than spending all that time on a bus to do a rushed Punta Tombo visit and penguin tour. I would do this tour again if not traveling on a cruise.
Carmen, how are you? This is Santiago Sussanich, the agency owner. You're right, there was a misunderstanding with your group. The English/Spanish language issue caused the confusion, as you speak both languages. The waiting time from disembarking to exiting was 35 minutes, when it's usually 20-25 minutes. The distances and travel times are long, and we prioritize safety by not exceeding 90 km/h. Several other vehicles traveled that same day and could have had the 90-minute wait we aim for at the reserve. This was because they disembarked earlier (9:30 am), and the actual delay in exiting was 20 minutes. We know that delays in disembarking are often unintentional, but we depend on these schedules. We're glad that the vehicle, the guide, and Punta Tombo met your expectations. Best regards.
Incredible tour well worth the journey The tour guide kept you entertained and informed during the long journey . The end result was once in a life time so close & personal to the penguins it was incredible . You understand their habits and learn so much whilst being so close and part of their world just briefly. The lunch was pretty filling & fresh as well as we had a cheeky glass of wine out there too . It’s very respectfully done with ultimate respect afford to the wildlife. I could not recommend it more Thank you George
