Strenuous Activity
Includes meal
Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.
What you will visit:
Puerto Almanza
At this southernmost fishing port in Argentina, at the mouth of the Almanza River, almost all the village is dedicated to specialized fishing, crabbing, harvesting and other seafood-related endeavors.
What you will see along the way:
Gaze out the window on your scenic motorcoach ride that travels along National Route 3, then take a gravel road through a dense native forest. Stop at Laguna Victoria for a snack in an ancestral site, full of history of the original natives. Continuing on you'll be able to see turbales in formation, a rare ecosystem containing dead organic material derived from plants that have adapted to the conditions of this region. You'll arrive at Puerto Almanza, the southernmost fishing port in Argentina, located on the coasts of the Beagle Channel in the Almirante Brown Bay.
Lunch
In a picturesque restaurant, with the best views in the area, begin a cooking masterclass led by the local chef. Learn the preparation of a true Patagonian-style king crab meal. After tasting this succulent delicacy at lunch, bid farewell to your gracious hosts and return to port.
