Description
Your day begins with an early morning pick-up from your accommodation in Punta Arenas (between 07:00 and 07:40 hrs). You will travel to the ferry crossing at Tres Puentes to sail across the Strait of Magellan toward Tierra del Fuego.
Upon arrival, you will visit the charming town of Porvenir, including its main square, where you will learn about the history and culture of this remote region. Along the route, there will be a stop for lunch (not included), allowing you to relax and enjoy the Patagonian surroundings.
The highlight of the day is a visit to King Penguin Park, where you can observe these majestic birds in their natural habitat—one of the very few colonies outside Antarctica.
In the afternoon, the journey continues with a return ferry crossing via Primera Angostura, followed by a stop at the historic San Gregorio Ranch, known for its rustic architecture and significance in regional sheep farming history.
The tour concludes with a drop-off at your hotel in Punta Arenas around 21:00 hrs.

Increíble día
Lo volvería a hacer sin dudarlo. El precio es honesto para lo que se recibe. El chofer estaba esperando con el cartel a la salida, cero espera. El chofer nos fue contando qué era cada cosa hasta Strait of Magellan. Gracias por el día que nos hicieron pasar.

We came away delighted. Getting to Strait of Magellan was breathtaking. Our guide was warm and took time to chat with everyone.

Repetiria sem pensar
Reservamos de última hora e foi um acerto. O transporte ida e volta nos hotéis vale por si só. De todo o roteiro, Strait of Magellan é o que mais lembro. Logística afiada, dá para ver que fazem isso todo dia. Se voltarmos a Punta Arenas, repetimos.

Escolhemos pelas fotos e foi ainda melhor pessoalmente. O guia contava histórias que não estão em nenhum guia de viagem. A parada em Estreito de Magalhães foi o que mais gostamos. Comparando com fazer por conta própria, compensa. Já recomendei para dois amigos que viajam no mês que vem.

Muy buena atención
Reservamos a último momento y fue un acierto total. De todo el recorrido, Punta Arenas es lo que más recuerdo. Recomiendo hacerlo temprano, hay menos gente y mejor luz.

Could not have gone better. We stayed on walking around Magallanes after dinner. The Selk'nam area at night is something else. The guide gave us restaurant tips that turned out to be spot on. We would book again.
