Itinerary
The tour starts with the search at your accommodation in Puerto Madryn. After a short tour of the city to learn about its history, we will head towards Trelew.
Our first stop is the replica of the Patagotitan Mayorum, the largest dinosaur in the world found so far. We will find out all about the past, when dinosaurs reigned in the region. We will take advantage of the stop to take some photographs and then we resume route south.
We will continue en route to the beach resort Playa Union, where we will have free time to tour the coast and take photographs, or to embark on the 1.5 hour sailing "Sighting of Toninas Overas" (optional, NOT included in the final price). The boat ride runs through the mouth of the Chubut River to the open sea, passing near a colony of sea lions, to go in search of the smallest and most acrobatic groups of dolphins of all, the Overas Toninas.
On our way to Punta Tombo, we will deviate a few kilometers from the path to visit Isla Escondida Beach, where the imposing and magnificent Elephants Sea are seen, just 15 meters from the coast. After enjoying the free time to observe them with great respect and learn from them, we will continue journey to the Penguin colony. On the way along the ripio trails, the safari continues on land: watch for guanacos crossing the Patagonian landscape.
Punta Tombo is one of the most scenic reserves in Chubut province, combining the blue sea and the volcanic red rocks of the Jurassic. There, we will immerse ourselves in the world of the Magellanic Penguins through a trail of 3 kilometers (in total) to observe and walk among them. If nature permits and if we are attentive to the landscape, we can observe wonderful species of Patagonia, such as Guanacos, Choiques, Maras, Martinetas, among others. Once the trail is over, you will have free time for lunch at "DeliStore" or for a picnic if you have your own food/snacks. After a day full of pure nature, we will return to Puerto Madryn to leave you in your accommodation.

Though the beginning communications and planning was a bit rough, not enough people joining to start the tour, so i had to change to another one with dinosaur fossils instead of real wild life, the tour went equally smooth with high quality. The guide Diego was very knowledgeable and kind, trying his best to solve even the wifi problem of the museum and took in whatever surprising along the way, such as a gaucho live.
Couldn’t have had a better guide than Diego: a lovely person and very knowledgeable about all we saw. Excellent English as well. And of course it was great fun seeing the penguins up close and watching them swim at the end of the walkway! The dinosaur museum was an awesome bonus; it’s one of the world’s best.
Very insightful trip! Beautiful landscape, animals are friendly (and cute!). Our tour guide was very experienced and nice! Would do it again!
Easy pick up and drop off, informative and friendly guide, lots of penguins, and a bonus stop for elephant seals in October.
Great experience!! The guide explained everything and had answers to all of my questions.. and knew English very well🙏🏼 Fun day most recommended
Beautiful experience with Dos Océanos, we did the excursions to Punta Tombo + Hidden Island. Also El Doradillo at sunset. Excellent service and organization. We totally recommend the experience.
The excursion allowed us to make the most of a unique experience, which is seeing the penguins arrive at the largest colony in the region after 4 months at sea. The guide, Daniel, was very enthusiastic and clearly explained everything you need to know and more. In addition, a previous stop at Isla Escondida beach was included at no extra cost to see the elephant seals up close. The van was new, comfortable, and the transfers were completed without any problems. Highly recommended!!
Excellent, from Agustina with the reservation to Lucas the driver, special mention to Daniel the guide, a wonder, super excellent, committed, and passionate about his work.
From minute one they were quick to respond and very attentive to my questions (which were many). Once at the destination, everything was super well coordinated, punctual, and friendly. Everything went according to plan. 100% recommended.
We traveled with my sister and both of us enjoyed this unique experience of touring the pigsty, watching and learning about them was amazing. I highly recommend it for this experience with children.
We really liked the Penguin Box and the fact that we can admire so many Penguins together in their habitat, we also appreciate the competence and the preparation of our guide. We highly recommend this excursion.
Top guide, top tour , small group of 3 people. Perfect. Sea elephants, penguins, guanacos, all up close
Wonderful experience on Escondida Island, where we could see up close elephant seals on the beach, sitting a few meters from them, with the precise explanation of the guide Daniel, who informed us about habits, behaviors, reproduction, etc. of them, even showed us a piece of skin and in Punta Tombo, an immense colony of Magellanic Penguins, also with all the explanation about them, walking a walkway between the caves of them, appreciating pigeons, eggs and adults. All this with excellent treatment, attentive to our concerns. I also highlight the driving of the Coco driver. I would certainly repeat the experience with them.
We did with two oceans two full days excursion lucky to have Agostina as a guide, wonderful company, she is passionate that provided us excellent information! The penguin is knowing the home of these beautiful animals. Overlooking the sea, you can see these penguins walk sympathetically through their habitat, beautiful experience! I don't know lose her!
We had the guide from Lucas, who told us a lot about everything we were seeing on the tour, we loved it. We went to Isla Escondida and saw elephant seals, sailed to see toninas and then we went to the Punto Tombo penguin and we were lucky enough to see the first penguins of the season arrive, it was very exciting.
Bellissima esperienza con Mariano, sveglia presto per vedere i pinguini senza la folla di gente che da li a poco si è formata. Kilometri di strade sterrate per poi andare a vedere gli elefanti marini a neanche 5 metri spiaggiati in riva al mare, conclutasi con un trekking su una scogliera con vista mozzafiato sul mare.
It's an amazing city. Recommended 100 x %. You have day life, night life, very good restaurants, wide and beautiful beaches, very safe. There is a lot to do on the coast and going to the sea. Very rich marine life, and many adventures and activities.
The visit is excellent, very complete. Punta Tombo, and the lower valley with Welsh tea tasting. The personalized guide makes the visit much more enjoyable, as it matches the times of each and knows the place first person.
It was great. We were picked up from our hotel in Trelew in the morning. Our tour guide Christian was very friendly. He explained things to us about the animals we saw on the way. Penguin Park was great. A really great experience to experience the penguins and guanacos so close. After the trip we were dropped off at our hotel again. If I could I would give more than 5 stars. I can really highly recommend the day trip.
She was on a solo field trip for the first time and needed to feel confident in the agency. They treated me by whatsapp resolving all my doubts and very quickly. They issued invoice on the spot and everything was very formal, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. As for the excursion, the Guide was Cristian. His explanations very enjoyable and informative, always watching the whole group and making sure that everyone is having a special experience (which I had!). With Lucas behind the wheel I felt safe the whole time. Both super friendly and respectful.
Excellent guides Lucas and Cristian, photos to more not able in tip tomb touring the penguin and peninsula valdez, where we saw whales
Very friendly, always in touch. Very punctual in the excursions. Great service!! The excursion of the penguins is beautiful!! Super recommended
Excellent tour combined with sailing to see toninas from beach union. Lucas excellent with his explanations and handling of times and suggestions
