Itinerario
Irás a Punta Tombo, un accidente geográfico que el pingüino de Magallanes usa como hábitat (tarifa de entrada no incluida). Se encuentra a 3 horas de Puerto Madryn, en el camino tendrá tiempo para apreciar los paisajes de la Patagonia. En esta parada, tendrás la oportunidad de ver pingüinos en su propio hábitat mientras corren y juegan en las rocas. Allí, tendrá tiempo para observar cómo los pingüinos coexisten en la costa con otras especies, como gaviotas, skúas, petreles gigantes, cormoranes, ostras y vapor de pato y, dada la extensión del área, especies típicas de la estepa como Guanacos, Choiques, Maras y Zorros Grises. Pasará aproximadamente una hora y media en esta parada.
Antes de regresar a Puerto Madryn, hará una parada en el Puerto de Rawson. Si elige las Toninas viendo navegación, se embarcará para observar las Overas Toninas. Las Overa Toninas son reconocidas por su similitud con los delfines. No son más de un metro y medio. Puerto Rawson es uno de los pocos lugares del mundo donde se pueden observar en su hábitat natural. Estas especies atrevidas suelen escoltar barcos, jugando y mostrando sus habilidades a los visitantes que tienen la posibilidad de ver el espectáculo. La navegación dura aproximadamente una hora y media. Los que no eligieron la navegación tendrán algo de tiempo libre para explorar el puerto y por qué no disfrutar de una mesa para ver comida (no incluida). Regresará a Puerto Madryn alrededor de las 5 pm.

most spectacular 'close encounters' with penguins and guanacos (wild llamas) imaginable...the one mile hike along the boardwalk affords the viewers countless very close encourters with penguins and their gosslings, as well as the occasional encounter with a guanaco.
The guide was very nice. But it’s not worth taking a tour, better just find a way to get to Punta Tombo as you basically just walk in the reserve by yourself. They take you to a tea house after, note that you can just not go and go for a walk as it’s the experience is so-so. 8k for tea + a (very very big) spread of butter toast, cakes and scones.

A wonderful tour seeing so many penguins so close! And the toninas as well. Our guide was a real pro, very knowledgeable and really loving his job! Highly recommended tour that I would love to do again some dayz
A great tour to absolutely do if you’re in Puerto Madryn. Very well-organized and our tour guide was super!
On the coast of Chubut province and at the corresponding time of year, there is nothing that compares to the experience of going to see penguins in their habitat. The penguin is the main activity they must carry out in this region. There is also a small museum and Guanacos. (Entry fee may be paid in cash only).
It is a 2 hour trip from Puerto Madryn to punta Tombo, but the reserve is very interesting, You are able to walk along the different trails , the Penguins are so noisy calling each other to nest, but they and also friendly to take pictures (but do not touch them)It is a 20 minutes walk to the shore where the colony is bigger and you can see them swimming. One comment there is no WIFI or internet so be prepared to pay lunch in cash
Although guide & Punta Tombo was great (no issues there) the tour was not as advertised and poorly planned. First of all there was no tonina dolphin watching option (we didn’t buy online cuz reviews said it was a ripoff). Instead we went to to Welsh tea which we had no interest in (town is quite boring), which in turn only gave us 90 minutes(!) with the penguins. 90 minutes for a full day tour for the main attraction is just terrible value considering the price. We literally travelled thousands of miles and spent $1000’s to get there and only got 90 minutes in a rushed atmosphere. Again no fault of the tour guide who was great. Just the agency who designs it. We also found out others had paid less than half the amount we did. We paid over $220 basically for a 3 hour bus ride and a rushed visit to Punta Tombo. I considered 1 star but bumped up to 2 cuz guide was nice and accomodating (name was Juan).
Once seeing penguins in the wild, that was our wish. The area is impressive and there are many penguins that can be observed from nicely landscaped paths in close proximity. However, after 2.5 hours of driving we had to share this experience with many hundreds of other tourists who are carted up in large buses and still quite diminish the nature experience. It is recommended if possible to come füh in the morning or later afternoon.
Dear Matthias, Thanks for your comments, The south of Argentina is very interesting for a traveler who wants to see penguins for the first time. We are glad, though, that you could have had a good time in Patagonia. Thank you for your review! Best regards,
It is a place that deserves the view, it is beautiful very quiet and to see the amount of penguins there is impressive.
