Puerto Madryn

Traveled from Puerto Iguazu to Puerto Madryn, it took 2 days via Buenos Aires. We stayed for 2 nights at the hostel La Tosca for 45pesos a night. The hostel was very good with friendly helpful staff. While in Puerto Madryn we got a tour of Peninsula Valdes, the tour cost 160pesos because we paid by cash and received a discount. It cost 70pesos to enter the reserve on Peninsula Valdes. During the tour we saw Orcas, Sea Lions, Elephant Seals, Penguins, Maras, Guanacos, Nandues, Foxes, Partridges, Armadillos and Lizards. The Orcas where beaching themselves to catch seals but it was very hard to see as they were so far away. When we were there it was out of season so there was very little to see just some seals and penguins but not in their usual large colonies. The guide we had had good English and a vast amount of knowledge of the area. Check out my YouTube for some vids.
