Testimonials
Thank you so much for the perfect vacation to Puerto Madryn! Everything went as planned and all the sites exceeded our expectations. We all enjoyed the penguin colony and whale watching. However, my son's favorite was the visit to the Welsh Tea House! Our transfers were on time and the hotel was great with plenty of room and an amazing view of the bay. Argentina is a beautiful and impressive country and I would recommend anyone who has a chance to visit.
