Una muy bonita experiencia, Las Adventure se hizo cargo de recogernos, guardar el equipaje y llevarnos al muelle. La comunicación y la ayuda fue excelente. El tour dura 2 hrs total (30mins ida y 30mins vuelta hasta las islas). No se vieron muchos pingüinos pero sí lobos marinos y muchas aves, la guía fue muy informativa. Importante llevar sombrero con amarre porque el viento es fuerte en el camino hacia las islas.
Everything was great! And they help me to organise the next step of my journey

Know before you go
- Please send us a valid mobile phone number so we can contact you via WhatsApp. This is important as we need to contact you about any changes to your tour.
- Please send your exact hotel/house or Airbnb address so we can find you; otherwise, it will be difficult.
- If you're staying in a hotel away from our pickup zone, an extra will be charged directly at the office and must be arranged before departure.
- If you are coming from Lima, I suggest taking the early bus. The 11:00 am and 12:00 p.m. tours sometimes can't be guaranteed because of bad weather or a lack of people for the tour.
- The tour usually takes 2 hours, but during special festivities such as national bank holidays, Easter weekend, Christmas, and New Year's Eve, the time will be reduced to 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- This tour depends on weather and sea conditions; if it is cancelled due to bad weather or bad sea conditions, you will be offered an alternative tour or a full refund.
