What you can expect

  • We start at 7:00 AM with pickup from your hotel in Punta Arenas (urban area) and cross the Strait of Magellan by ferry to Porvenir. In the city, we take a short tour of its main points and stop for lunch. Then we visit the King Penguin Nature Reserve, with time to walk the trail and observe the penguins in their habitat. Later, we continue to Punta Delgada, the narrowest stretch of the Strait, for a second crossing of approximately 30 minutes. On the way, we stop at the San Gregorio Estancia to see its original buildings before returning to Punta Arenas. We finish around 10:00 PM.
