Guided Penguin Watching Tour and Centolla Route

It's so cool to see penguins, especially gentoo penguins. There weren't many, but it was very interesting. The boat to the island was good and protected from cold winds. Lunch was okay in a house near the beach.

Great tour, one of the best I have done. After the initial pickup, we traveled along Route 3, where we stopped at different panoramic and winter spots in the city of Ushuaia. Afterward, we took the road that goes toward Puerto Almanza where we were able to see different beaver dams, lakes, rivers, and forests typical of the region. Then in Puerto Almanza, we ate at a place with a great vibe, where we shared a great moment together with the group. And then we went out on the little boat to see the gentoo and Magellanic penguins. On the same trip, a nice group was formed, and very well guided by Luciano for both those who spoke Spanish and those who spoke English.

It was spectacular! We loved everything. Congratulations to Explore Tierra del Fuego for the excellent service. We highlight, in addition to the excursion which is excellent, the warmth and kindness of everyone who makes it possible. Unmissable. We highly recommend Explore Tierra del Fuego to get to know the beauty of this southern province.

An incredible experience from start to finish! Franco is a star and a true expert; it is very obvious how much he knows about the region. The group of tour companions was great; there was a wonderful vibe at all times. The food was excellent, and I really appreciate that they took our dietary requirements into account—a great touch! And well, the penguins... simply spectacular. Highly recommended!

The penguin tour was everything and more than I expected The guide Luciano gave us excellent service and the trip to Almanza was spectacular The penguins are beautiful!

Marcelo was our guide on this tour and we learned so much about history! He is very kind and fun! It was truly a spectacular experience to see the penguins so close and the beautiful landscapes of the mountain range.

Sensational, people have a lot of experience, arrived at the right time on the island. To see the penguins return from the sea to the island. They are beautiful, thanks, swimming and jumping on the beach, walking on the island.

We did the unknown king crab route first with Lucas and then the visit to the penguin colony, and we loved it. Super approachable, fun, and attentive, with 10/10 explanations throughout the entire tour. You can tell that he knows the area very well and that he enjoys showing it off. A 10/10 guide and totally recommended! 🦀🐧 Asier and Ane.

There are excursions that show you a place... and others that make you feel part of it. Yesterday we experienced one of those unforgettable experiences with Explore Tierra del Fuego, heading to Puerto Almanza, a small fishing village where time seems to pass differently and nature sets the rhythm of life. From the first minute, the love with which Lucas and Mara do their work was evident. It was not just a tour: it was a close, personalized experience, full of stories, time to contemplate, and those stops that truly invite you to connect with the vastness of Tierra del Fuego. Each landscape seemed to surpass the previous one. The Fuegian valleys, Laguna Victoria, the beaver dam... each stop was an invitation to pause, look, and enjoy, understanding a little more about the history and nature of this corner of the world. Before we boarded to see the penguins, we had lunch at El Gran Chaparral. Araceli, its owner and cook, welcomed us with incredible warmth. Everything was homemade, prepared with dedication and local products. We tried king crab for the first time, and it was simply a delight. A place I would return to without hesitation and that I recommend with my eyes closed. And just when we thought the day could not surprise us any more, the moment to visit the penguin colony arrived. There we understood that nothing had been left to chance. Explore Tierra del Fuego organizes the excursion to arrive at sunset, just when the penguins return from the sea to the island. Seeing them appear in groups, walking towards the shore and reuniting in their natural habitat, with the warm light of the sunset tinting the landscape, was one of the most exciting scenes I experienced. A moment of contemplation that remains etched forever. And as if nature wanted to gift us one last magical moment, the return was sailing under an immense full moon that illuminated the entire journey back. A perfect ending to a day that we will hardly forget. I take away much more than photos. I take with me the memory of people who deeply love this land and know how to convey that love in every detail. Thank you, Lucas and Mara, for making it so that we not only got to know Tierra del Fuego, but that we could feel it. Without a doubt, I would choose this experience again and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone visiting Ushuaia.
