Puerto Madryn, Argentina Port Reviews

Great access to wildlife tours (Tombo National Reserve) etc. Town itself is worth an entire day.

It was obvious this was a restocking or refueling port. They hauled us for an hour for the included tour to some place to have tea and food where the toilets didn't work.

Very nice port, we did an excursion to a penguin rookery. The ride was 2-1/2 hours each way with just one hour to visit and see the penguins. Would have been nice to stay their longer, but the ship time in port would need to be longer.

WAS FINE. JUST NOT BLOW YOU AWAY

We did not get off ship, the weather was so bad we elected not to get off

No comments.

Another Magellan penguin colony and it was a warm day so thankful the penguin families had some cover, small bushes/shrubs providing some cover from the sun. This was another arid area for the penguins to have their babies and like Punta Arenas, but they had a beach much closer and put on a diving and swimming show for all.

We did the ship's excursion to Punta Tombo. This was a really good excursion even with the 2 hour bus trip there and back. Seeing the penguins was fabulous. the provided lunch was the best box lunch we have ever had on a tour.
