We did see several...
We did see several penguins! Car with 4 passengers was a little cramped for such a long drive of 2 1/2 hours. Fernando was nice and answered our questions and stopped for us to see the dinosaur replica and he also drove us around the main part of town when we returned. It was a good alternative to the ship excursion since we got closed out of it and I wanted to see the penguins.

Visit to the penguin colony that should not be missed
The incredible guides. The penguin colony experience is something you should not miss while in Puerto Madryn. Punta Tombo is spectacular and it is worth getting to the viewpoint at the end. Number of penguins waiting to return to the sea. It was spectacular!
