2.3 hour 4×4 tour around Puerto Madryn

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 75 reviews · 3 to 4 hours (approx.) · from $100

Join a small-group 4x4 outing from Puerto Madryn with guides such as Eduardo, Ed, Augusto, or Cynthia. You’ll cross beaches, dunes, rocky tracks, and Cerro Avanzado, visit Punta Loma’s sea lion colony, and stop for coffee or tea by the shore. The ride is exciting but rough, and the Punta Loma entry fee costs ARS 15,000 extra.

“Eduardo was fantastic. Very knowledgeable. The trip was fun and such good value . He took us to some lovely places with views and to see the sea lions. He never rushed us but also kept us to the schedule. His English was really good and he really showed us the beautiful area around Puerto Madryn”
