Explore the amazing Peninsula Valdes, a world-heritage site, on this full-day tour from Puerto Madryn. The area is famous for unique animal species since it's a suitable place for them to live and breed. On this day out, you'll be accompanied by both bilingual guides and naturalists. We highly recommend you to opt for a whale watching navigation, to observe whales in their natural habitat (from June to December).

What's included in the package

Itinerary

Centro De Visitantes Istmo Ameghino

The first stop is the interpretive center Carlos Ameghino Isthmus, where you'll learn about the flora, fauna and geology of the peninsula. Also, you'll enjoy the panoramic lookout point of Golfo Nuevo, San Jose and the Island of Birds. Don't forget to bring your camera for unforgettable photo opportunities!

Puerto Piramides

Once in the town of Puerto Piramides, the ones who chose the whale watching navigation will get on the boat. You will be guided by our specialized and bilingual personnel, who will provide you with more information about the exclusive ecosystems of the coast and the sea, while you sail to meet the whales. Once you meet them, magic will start. The boat will stop the engines and silence will begin to reign, interrupted only by the sounds of the sea and the occasional bird. In this scenario, the whales will appear next to the boat and you will manage to live together in harmony in the same space for as long as they decide. It will be a unique moment where, if you are lucky, you will be able to see them very close.

Great day and Juan the tour guide was excellent. We managed to see seals, sea lions and some penguins. Unfortunately no Orcas came out to play but that did not deter us. Was an excellent day

A Puerto Madryn si sta bene. All’Hotel Tolosa pure. Qui ha avuto realmente inizio la “nostra” Patagonia. Il pullmino che ci porta di buon mattino allla Penisola di Valdez , si riempie subito della sonorità di varie lingue. Clara che ci guida e’ anzianotta e spiegazzata anche nei capelli, ma ha un...
