Itinerary
Trelew Airport/ Puerto Madryn
Almirante Marcos A. Zar Airport
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeUpon arrival at Trelew airport, you will have a shared transfer to your hotel in Puerto Madryn (approximately 1-hour drive). Puerto Madryn is the closest city to the famous Peninsula Valdes, where the Southern Right Whale comes to mate and also to feed its calves. Thousands of travellers travel every year to take part in this natural show, which only happens during some months of the year!Puerto Madryn
12 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeOnce arrival at Puerto Madryn, you will have the rest of the day free. Our recommendation: Visit the Ecocentro, a museum on the coast where you can learn about the marine life of the region. Discover what it feels like to be inside the belly of a whale in one of the museum rooms, and enjoy the most beautiful views of the Atlantic Ocean from the museum tower. The Ecocentro is just a 30-minute walk from the centre, so make the most of the day and walk along the beach!

The colony’s population reaches over half a million birds during the peak season, and one of the greatest features of this reserve is the fact that you can walk among the penguins and observe their habits. For 2 hours, you’ll have the opportunity to see how they feed their babies, defend their territory, build their nests or to watch their characteristic comedic waddle in and out of the sea (depending on the time of year we visit the reserve, we will see different life cycles of this animal). Take some rest at a nearby bar where, if you want, can take a quick lunch (not included) before leaving heading Punta Tombo Interpretive Center. There, you will learn more about the life of Magellanic penguins.Puerto Madryn
