Discover the king penguins of Volunteer Point on a private, eco-conscious 4x4 adventure with a local guide who knows and loves the Falkland Islands. Your vehicle is reserved exclusively for your group, with comfortable seating for up to four passengers.

Travel across open landscapes, private farmland and rugged off-road tracks before spending unhurried time watching penguins and exploring the white-sand beach.
