tartanexile81 Posted October 21, 2015 #2 Share Posted October 21, 2015 We went to Punta Tombo from Puerto Madryn and it far exceeded our expectations: there were literally tens of thousands of penguins of all ages. However it was at the end of January so I don't know how many will be left in March. We also saw guanacos, cavvies and various birds. I reviewed what we did in every port and although we did a round trip from the UK, the middle part will be relevant to you http://boards.cruisecritic.co.uk/showthread.php?t=2187848 You will be spoilt for choice!

Rare Keith1010 Posted October 22, 2015 #3 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Having done this itinerary several times I would book Penguin Tours in two ports because you never know if one of the ports will be missed due to weather. I would choose Punta Arenas (Otway Bay) and Puerto Mardryn. For Ushuai I would look at sailing the Beagle Channel tour followed by a walk of the town of Ushuaia.
