Exkursion zu den Pinguinen

Die Tour - eher eine biologische Exkursion - war super! Joey hat sehr viel über ihre Arbeit mit den Pinguinen berichtet. Und einen Teil der Arbeit konnten wir mit verfolgen. Das war sehr informativ und hat viel Spaß gemacht. Für alle, die an biologischen und ökologischen Fragestellungen interessiert sind ein "muss"!

Wärmstens zu empfehlen

Wir hatten einen sehr kompetenten und bemühten Guide, der nicht nur viel seines Wissens über Pinguine mit uns geteilt hat, sondern auch über viel über die Landschaft, die (Landschafts-)Geschichte, Flora, Fauna und vor allem die bedeutsame Naturschutzarbeit zu berichten wusste. Jeder Teilnehmer bekam ein Fernglas und zusätzlich wurde auch ein Teleskop aufgestellt. Letztlich haben wir etwa 20 Pinguine im Meer und ein paar an Land zu Gesicht bekommen. Auch zwei Pelzrobben haben wir gesehen. Ich habe sehr viel Freude an der Tour gehabt und viel gelernt! Diese Tour ist wärmstens zu empfehlen!

AWESOME

What an experience - the knowledge of our tour guide & his passion for the wildlife made the night so amazing. Didn’t expect to see so many penguins. One of the main highlights of our trip.

Excellent tour despite the weather

It was quite stormy as we headed out, and it soon turned to heavy rain. Our guide was amazing, very knowledgeable and extremely passionate, and we say both penguins on their nests (being monitored, and only viewed for a short time to ensure they aren't stressed) on the water and coming ashore. We also got to help out feeding lambs on the owners farm
