What our guests say
“Augustin and his wife, Augustina, are some of the best bird guides we have ever had in the entire world!! Seriously!! They very conscientiously studied our wishlist and carefully prepared an itinerary to see the maximum number of birds within our 5-day trip. We had a delightful time with them and saw ALL the endemics of the region! They were gracious and friendly hosts who kept us well fed and took care of our every need. They are both extremely knowledgeable about the birds of this region and where & how to find them. You seriously can not find a better bird guide for the Puerto Madryn, Chubut region. We would highly recommend them for bird watching in Chubut. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip with them. We hope we get to bird watch with them again in the future!”
“Agustin was an excellent guide during my four-day private birding tour to the Valdez Peninsula, Puerto Madryn and Punta Tombo. Despite difficult weather conditions most days, we were able to see most of my target bird species, plus have close encounters with Guanaco, Patagonian Mara, Southern Elephant Seal, and Southern Right Whale. I highly recommend Birding Puerto Madryn for anyone wanting to connect with nature in central Patagonia.”
