A fascinating trip to discover both the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans and an incredible ammount of secrets kept in between that mingle with the immensity of the Patagonic steppe: an ancient subtropical petrified wood by the action of volcanic eruptions over 60 million years ago, nowadays lying in the barren bleak plateau; a cave decorated by Indian paintings 900 years ago; and finally the millenary ice of San Rafael Glacier.

Day 1 - Comodoro Rivadavia
Reception at the local airport and transfer to the hotel. In the afternoon city tour of Comodoro Rivadavia, visiting the Petroleum Museum and Mt. Chenque's panoramic view point. Continue to Rada Tilly, a seaside village a few kilometres south from Comodoro Rivadavia to Punta del Marques Hill view point that dominates the villa and to the sea lion rookery. Accommodation. Dinner.

Day 2 - Comodoro Rivadavia / Petrified Woods / Río Mayo
Breakfast. Visit to the Petrified Woods J. Ormachea, discovered in 1927, which gathers a group of 65 million years old huge fossilized trunks that reach 30 meters in length and twometers in diameter. It's formed by rocky arid land with xerophilous plants, prehistoric conifers and dead palm trees.
Continue to Río Mayo. Visit a local estancia that develops the breeding and protection of the guanaco, one of the most characteristic South American 'camelidae' group in the southern extreme of the continent, in semicaptivity. Continue to the town of Perito Moreno and Estancia Telken. Accommodation. Dinner.

Day 3 - Pinturas River Valley
Breakfast. Departure to Pinturas River Canyon. Trekking (level: moderate) to visit the Caves of the Painted Hands, one of the greatest expressions of rupestrian American art.
