Okay trip. Drive was long. A lot of penguins in a scrubland setting. It was okay but not worth the drive
Hi Larry! I'm sorry our trip didn't meet your expectations. In Patagonia, distances are very long for any excursion, except for those within the city. The penguins live in a Patagonian forest environment, which makes them special. The good thing is that you were able to get back to the cruise ship in time to continue your tour.
