Full Description
Explore the incredible biodiversity of the Valdes Peninsula discovering guanacos elephant seals and spectacular natural landscapes on the Argentine Atlantic coast
Discover the majesty of the Valdes Peninsula, the most important protected area on the Argentine Atlantic coast. During this comprehensive tour, you will delve into an unparalleled natural environment, starting at the Istmo Ameghino Interpretation Center, where you will gain a unique perspective of the Nuevo and San Jose gulfs, in addition to appreciating the unique geography of the area and Bird Island.
Continuing the journey through roads that combine asphalt and gravel, you will have the opportunity to observe local fauna in its natural habitat, including guanacos, choiques, and maras. A visit to the picturesque village of Puerto Piramides will allow you to enjoy its beaches and protected surroundings. Later, from the cliffs of Caleta Valdes, you will admire the imposing elephant seals and, depending on the season, the Punta Norte reserve for sea lion sightings.
Please note that the animals are in their natural habitat and in total freedom, so specific wildlife sightings are not guaranteed and the itinerary can be adapted according to weather conditions. Entrance fees to the site and lunch are not included, so you will have free time to eat on your own during the day.
