The Journey
Argentina's great wildlife stages, connected in a single private journey. The Valdés Peninsula — one of the world's elite marine wildlife destinations — combined with Ushuaia and the Beagle Channel at the end of the earth. At Valdés, we coordinate whale watching excursions for southern right whales (June to December), full-day wildlife circuits covering Punta Norte, Puerto Pirámides, and Punta Tombo, and the extraordinary Punta Tombo penguin colony — one of the largest Magellanic penguin colonies in the world. In Ushuaia, Beagle Channel navigation, the Isla Martillo penguin colony visit on foot, and wildlife observation excursions with a naturalist complete the journey.

Your Journey, Day by Day
Days 1–3 · 3 nights
Buenos Aires
Arrival and city immersion. Three nights in the capital before flying south to the Patagonian coast.
Days 4–7 · 4 nights
Puerto Madryn & Península Valdés
You fly south to the Patagonian coast and enter one of the world's great wildlife theatres. The Valdés Peninsula is a UNESCO World Heritage Site — an extraordinary concentration of marine life in a landscape of dramatic cliffs and open steppe. Four days of private wildlife encounters — southern right whales that approach the boats with what can only be described as curiosity (June through December), the world's largest Magellanic penguin colony at Punta Tombo, elephant seals hauled out on the beaches, orcas that hunt sea lions at the shoreline in season, and guanacos moving across the steppe in the low afternoon light. A private naturalist guide accompanies every excursion.
Days 8–10 · 3 nights
Ushuaia
A flight south brings you to the end of the continent. Three days in the world's southernmost city — a private catamaran on the Beagle Channel that Darwin sailed in 1833, a full day in Tierra del Fuego National Park where the trails end at the literal edge of the land, and an evening watching the channel light shift through colours that have no name yet.
