Explore the local heritage with a tour through Trelew’s stunning paleontological museum, and charming Gaiman’s Welsh traditions. History, culture, and nature in one incredible day!
Important info: We work with the ships schedules, so we will adapt the tour depart and return time according to it.

This tour begins at the Piedrabuena pier, where our team will welcome you to start an enriching journey through the history and culture of the Lower Chubut River Valley.

Our first stop will be the city of Trelew, where we will enjoy a brief city tour exploring its streets. Next, we’ll visit the recently renovated Egidio Feruglio Paleontological Museum, a world-class center featuring an 8,000 m² immersive exhibition. Get ready for a captivating experience that will take you back millions of years, where you'll encounter the majestic Patagotitan mayorum, one of the largest dinosaurs to have ever walked the Earth. This exhibition is a must-see for science and history lovers!

To conclude our tour, we’ll head to Gaiman, one of the most representative Welsh settlements in the region, still alive with tradition. Here, we’ll tour its main attractions, including the town square, the first house, the Welsh school, the railway tunnel, and other historic buildings. Those who wish to experience authentic Welsh tradition can enjoy a delicious Welsh tea in one of Gaiman's cozy teahouses (not included in the tour price).

After this culturally enriching experience, we’ll return to Puerto Madryn, where our tour ends. This excursion combines paleontology, history, and Welsh traditions in a single day.
