2.3 hour 4×4 tour around Puerto Madryn

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

Join Catalejo Travel for a 3 to 4 hour 4x4 outing from Puerto Madryn, led by guides such as Eduardo, Ed, Augusto, or Cynthia. Expect beach tracks, dunes, cliff views, Punta Loma sea lions, native plants, and coffee or tea beside the coast. The ride is exciting, dusty, and not designed for soft seats.
