Punta Tombo, Dos Pozos, Argentina The Punta Tombo Protected Area was created as such in 1979, has a total extension of 210 ha and can be visited from September to April. The coast is considered an intangible area and during the month of February we will find it populated with youngsters practicing swimming especially in the small pools that the tide leaves when retiring. Leaving Puerto Madryn, to the south, on National Route No. 3, and after traveling about 190 km on pavement and gravel, we will arrive at Punta Tombo, the largest continental reserve of Magellanic Penguins (Spheniscus magallanicus). This incredible place is home to tens of thousands of Magellanic penguins, which every year since September arrive to nest and have their young. To observe the fauna it is important to respect the paths perfectly traced to travel. 420 minutes

My Punto Tombo tour was very enjoyable. From the moment I was picked up at my accommodations Pierre our guide made sure I was looked after and wanted for nothing. Despite a delay by one guest we were on time throughout. There were sufficient toilet breaks and instructions were clear. Pierre is very knowledgeable about the history and places we visited. He gave equal attention to me even though I was the only English speaker. He even walked with us out to the end of the trail at Punto Tombo. The penguins were delightful and so were the elephant seals. Although I wasn't sure about the Paleontological museum in Trelew, it was worth visiting. Our driver Ruben was great too. The car was clean and comfortable. Thoroughly recommend this tour.

The experience is beautiful. All the time the guide was clear about itinerary and times. The sound within the combi could be improved since in the ripio area it was not heard. The visit is very complete!
