We loved Punto Tombo - We loved this tour. Our guide spoke great English and her commentary was interesting and informative. She was very alert to the needs of her passengers. It was a long drive from Puerto Madryn to Punto Tombo but her commentary made it interesting. The reserve at Punto Tombo was amazing, with penguins the primary attraction, and despite the admonition to stay two metres away from them, they were walking right up to us. Hundreds visible on a lovely curve of beach. Beautiful landscape and seascape colours on this day of clear blue skies. Some fitness is required to take full advantage of the walkways through the reserve. An excellent city/beaches tour followed. And the biggest boxed lunch we've ever had!!

Great experience visiting... - Great experience visiting the penguins! A well organized tour from the entrance to the cruise ship pier. Plentiful lunch. Cecilia made the long ride there and back enjoyable with her knowledge of the area and the reserve. And we parked right next to the buses for the cruise ship tour that cost twice as much.

Very dedicated and very interesting leadership - We came with two manual wheelchairs and that's not always easy, but with combined efforts we did that in this case, above all the team, Cecilia and Hugo, you did a wonderful job. We sat with two others from the cruise ship. In a minibus and Cecilia as well as Hugo gave us much of the countryside, the Valais, the indigenous people and also much of nature and animals. They were both extraordinarily nice and really tried to answer all possible and impossible questions.

Not for the elderly... - I personally didn't enjoy the visit (and this doesn't mean to take away anything of the value of the place). The 3 hours' drive from the cruise port in Puerto Madryn to Punta Tombo and then the one plus miles on foot to the beach is too much for the elderly. I am content that my family and I enjoyed the Magellanic penguins at other locations during our excursion.
