Hola!! My Name is Carina and I 've been working as a tour guide for the past 25 years, wow a lot right? I moved to live with my parents at Puerto Madryn city when I was only 8 years old, and from the first moment I set foot in this city I can honestly say that I fell in love with it and that it's a feeling that still lasts until these days, so for me was natural to became a Tour Guide, reason why as soon I finished high school went straight to the University in order to get my Credential, and that passion that moved me 26 years ago to do that is the same one that made me change from being just a guide on a bus to be a guide - driver on her own car. The reason is simple my aim is that each one of my passengers can enjoy, discover and fall in love of this little corner of Patagonia as I did at my 8 years old. So what you'll experience with me is a unique moment between you and the amazing wildlife and pristine landscape that surrounds Puerto Madryn, and the advantage you have by being alone with me is that the excursion is tailor-made to your wishes and of course to those unexpected moments the roads and nature prepare for us. I love guiding tourist with all kind of interest either history or nature. So don't hesitate to contact me and ask all you want to know about what to see, and when, and then get ready to live a great experience and also to be surprised. If you need more information about me or the tours, please contact me, all your questions will be responded as soon as possible. See you in that little corner around the world. -LicensedTour Guide, issued by the Province of Chubut, License Number S-23 -PROFESSIONAL DRIVING LICENSE -Course of Birdwatching -Certified WFR (Wilderness First Responder) - I have completed COVID's vaccination program (4 doses) -I work for a licensed local tour operator EVyT 12828 (a code that means the company is authorized) My car can fit up to 4 people comfortably.

Overview of your Puerto Madryn tour

If you love history, this tour is a must, but you may be wondering why. Well, over a hundred years ago, a small group of Welsh people made the bravest and most difficult decision of their lives: to migrate to Patagonia. I love to imagine walking in their footsteps, trying to experience the fears and joys they felt, and how they coped during their first months in a completely isolated, deserted land that looked nothing like the Wales they had left behind. Join me as I retrace the steps of these pioneering settlers and gain a fresh perspective on history. As we drive through the valley, you will see it transformed from a desert that was once home to the largest dinosaurs imaginable; you will also have the unique opportunity to stand next to one of them.
