★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 111 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $95Our pick

Review of the Peninsula Valdes shore excursion from Puerto Madryn, with wildlife sightings, long drives, price details, and practical booking advice.

“First thing you need to know is that the peninsula is BIG, really big. And covered with nothing but scrub and guanacos, so not too much to look at. It is a long drive to get anywhere, and you will spend most of this tour in a vehicle. That said, we got great views of penguins, seals and sea lions (didn't see anything else but that was just unlucky). Our guide Fernando was very helpful and accommodating and we had a nice day.”

“non ho fatto l'escursione. avevo comprato escursione di 7 ore. non potevano fornirla e non mi hanno rimborsato. agenzia molto disonesta. In altri casi, agenzie serie che non avevano potuto dare il servizio acquistato hanno rimborsato. questa agenzia invece non si presenta e ruba i soldi. In questo caso, anche Get Tour Guide, che di solito è professionale, è stata complice di questo furto. Chissà perché? Chi sono costoro?”

7.Peninsula Valdes: Shore excursion for cruise passengers

★★★★★★★★★★3.6 · 8 reviews · 6 hours · from $150

Review of Peninsula Valdes from Puerto Madryn, with wildlife stops, travel times, costs, practical tips, and honest value advice.

“The tour guide was excellent and informative. The tour itself was rushed and was not worth the time spent in the bus. We drove for 2.5 hours to the peninsula to only spend 1 hour there. By the time we got in and out of the van, went to the toilet etc it was around 45 minutes at the peninsula before driving back. We arrived back with 1.5 hours to spare before our vessel departed, so we could have spend alot longer there. By the time you add in the par fees the tour was over £330 for two adults and a 5 year old. I would rate this as…”

Review of Punta Tombo from Puerto Madryn, with penguins, wildlife, pricing, transport details, city sights, and practical cruise tips.

“Excursión buenísima, gracias a Karen, la guía y a Hernán, el chofer. Los dos muy atentos. Karen con mucho conocimiento del área y explica muy bien. Punta Tombo, creo que es único lugar dónde se puede "caminar entre los pingüinos". No compramos el almuerzo, pues compramos un par de empanadas y un café en la parada del baño y gasolina, y nos fué bien. Tuvimos tiempo de ir a ver estatua del dinosaurio "Patagotita" y a tirarnos fotos. Y como era un tour de crucero, tuvimos suficiente tiempo de llegar al puerto y dar una vuelta por el área antes de entrar al barco. Recomiendo 100% a Sussanich Turismo.”

Explore Peninsula Valdés from Puerto Madryn with a local guide, small group, wildlife stops, lunch, and cruise-friendly timing.

“Your company really earned your name, Animal Travel! The guide, Verena, is super knowledgeable about biology of each of these animals on land and in water. Driver, Nabal is an excellent safe driver. All of the staff waiting for us at the port were very friendly and helpful. The tour was for 12 of us in a 15 passenger van, very comfortable. Verena was able to pay for our entrance tickets in a few minutes so we could spend more time touring - ran very efficiently. With the limited time, we were still able to visit Punta Pyramida at the end of the tour. Lunch box is a good way…”
