This excursion to Estancia la Antonieta is exclusively designed by FLAMENCO TOUR, where passengers can spend a day in the countryside at one of the most popular and beautiful estancias in the area.
Between 7:45 and 8:00 a.m. we will begin the pick-up from the accommodations, and then head towards National Route No. 3 towards Bajo Dos Pozos (approximately 2 hours from Puerto Madryn).
Upon arrival at the estancia, we'll explore its facilities and visit Chubut's first post office. This is where we'll learn about its history and the importance of the space. Afterward, we'll be welcomed to enjoy a typical Patagonian country-style lunch, where we'll delight in a menu of locally produced Patagonian lamb, or other menus available (drinks not included).
Between 12:30 and 1:00 p.m., we'll cross the estancia toward the Atlantic Ocean shores (10 km from the estancia's main square), where we'll be able to admire 13 km of coastline belonging to the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, exploring the magnificent Patagonia. We'll walk along the extensive beaches surrounded by typical regional flora and fauna until we reach the elephant seal sanctuary.
With the utmost care and caution, we will approach the elephant seals accompanied by qualified guides who know the best way to navigate their habitat and avoid disturbing or disturbing them with our presence. This experience invites us to feel part of the wild, marine nature, being able to observe their movements and reactions. It's inevitable to hear these animals' breathing due to the distance we are at. We will then begin the return trip to the ranch, where we will enjoy some mate before finally returning to the city of Puerto Madryn.
The times and order of the places to visit may vary, depending on the season, the weather and the interests of the group.
