🌤️ Climate policy
The tour is subject to weather conditions. If heavy rain or road closures prevent the tour, we will replace it with an alternative tour that we can access but is not included in the description. No refunds will be issued if we reach Playa Pirámides and the whale watching excursion is canceled due to port closures (as directed by the Argentine Naval Prefecture).
The entrance to the Valdés Peninsula is non-refundable, since it is a position administered by the State, not by our company.
If the port closes and you are unable to do the whale watching tour by boat and choose to return the next day, you will have to pay for the land transfer again.
