Peninsula Valdés Excursion with Whale Watching Included

Start your adventure 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 the Valdes Peninsula.

Start the adventure in the reserve in the company of a tour guide who will help us interpret the environment. Stay tuned, the Valdes Peninsula is home to unique species such as guanacos, maras (Patagonic hare), choiques (petiso rhea) and gray foxes, among others.

At certain points, you can simultaneously see both the New and San Jose Gulfs, and enjoy the views of the typical Patagonian landscape. Make your first stop at the Carlos Ameghino Isthmus Visitor Center, where you can appreciate the small sample of local flora and fauna.

Continue to the picturesque village of Puerto Pirámides while enjoying the views and a brief city tour upon arrival. From June to December, you will have the opportunity to experience the one-and-a-half hour sailing to see the towering Southern Right Whale up close.

Penguins of Magellan (from September to April). The exceptional value of this cove is due to its great biodiversity and the scenic beauty of the open ocean. Keep an eye on the killer whales, if you are lucky, you can spot them patrolling these coasts in packs. The next stop is Punta Cantor. Here, trails and viewpoints will allow you to observe elephant and sea lion colonies.

As we proceed along the ripio roads, the safari continues overland. Be sure to watch the horizon. Among the bushes, you can see guanacos, choiques and maras crossing the Patagonian steppe. After a day full of nature in its purest form, we returned to Puerto Madryn to leave it in your accommodation.
