Stanley Cruise Reviews

The drive to the Point is less than enjoyable with the off-road portion lasting for about 2-hous each way, plus to get to and from there, there is about a 20 minutes on a paved road and another 45 on a dirt road (each way). However, the number of King and Gentoo penguins made the trip well worth it! You actually got to walk in the large region where the penguins were located. You might want to ...

The Falklands are lovely in spring. We had great weather and a long walk out to Gypsy Cove. Fabulous day. The whole island smelled of honey (I think it was the gorse). ...

Excellent trip. Wonderful walking among the penguins and all persons involved with the trip were extremely friendly and informative ...

The tour to see the King penguins was sold out so instead we had to pay total of $700 to do two other penguin tours which if the other wasn't sold out it would have only cost $200. It makes you wonder if they strategically sell out to get more money. Still only saw about three sickly king penguins. ...

A well organized tour and the highlight was seeing the Penguins. It was molting season so the birds were not as pretty as envisioned. ...

We booked our own excursion for about half of what the shipped charged. Best port of the cruise. Saw a great many penguins close up and experienced a Land Rover ride through bogs, trenches, Streep slopes etc which was great fun. ...

Very informative tour, but not much to see. Guide was informative but her information was slow and a bit boring. ...

Lucky to see 3 kinds of penguins (king, gentoo magellan, rockhopper already left in late February) ...

The Falklands are really worth visiting. Tiny population. Harsh, natural conditions, but pretty cool and nice pubs too. Very British! ...

This excursion was a highlight. The gentoo penguins were everywhere. There were also a few Magellanic penguins. The penguins had no fear of humans. ...
