- Punta Tombo - This tour takes visitors to the largest Magellan Penguin reserve in South America. The most thrilling part of the journey begins here, as visitors have the opportunity to walk among the penguins along a 1.5-kilometer path. This path starts in the Patagonian steppe and leads to the coastal area where penguins come ashore from the sea to refurbish their nests annually and complete their breeding cycle. The vastness of the colony, with nests scattered everywhere, is truly remarkable. This is a unique experience that few have the chance to enjoy. It’s noteworthy that the penguins peacefully coexist with small rodents, known as cuis, and occasionally receive visits from guanacos and choiques. After exploring the reserve, the tour returns to the city.
