The Experience

You experience the penguin sighting from a small boat and in small groups of travelers, which allows you to see the penguins in small groups and up close, with an intimate observation that large boats do not allow. The tour crosses the Fuegian valleys to Puerto Almanza, a fishing village in front of the Beagle Channel, before sailing to the Isla Martillo colony, where the guide provides explanations aboard the boat (the vehicle transfer does not include guiding). Papuan penguins can be seen all year, and from October to March, Magellanic ones too.
