Overview

GOOD NEWS UPDATE! – Price frozen for 2026/27 season

This is a fun, shared tour which incorporates penguins, fantastic views and some short walks all in the great company of our local accredited guides who will share their knowledge and personal insights of living in a remote part of the world.

If you are arriving on a cruise ship, we will meet you at the tender landing area (Jetty Visitor Centre) for either the 9:00 or 12.00 departure time for the 2.5-hour tour.

The town tour takes in all the local landmarks and we offer the option to leave the tour at the Museum which is a short walk (10 minutes) from the Jetty Visitor Centre, or return to your pick-up point.

The tour does involve some walking over uneven ground so is not suitable for wheel chairs or those with mobility aids.

Activity itinerary

Yorke Bay

  • 40m
NB: 04/12/2025 Yorke Bay is again open to the public. In the event that Yorke bay is closed at any point during the season we will extend the tour to both the East (Sapper Hill, Wireless Ridge areas) and the West of Stanley (Cape Pembroke, Surf Bay) to ensure you enjoy the maximum coverage of the Stanley area. Please be assured that while there may be less penguins, the replacement content and quality of our guides will ensure that you will be well informed about all things Falklands from start to finish.

Lady Elizabeth Shipwreck

  • 10m
  • Admission ticket included
Lying at the east end of Stanley Harbour is Stanley's most imposing and iconic shipwreck. Known as Lady Liz, the ship was launched in Sunderland in the UK in 1879 and suffered damage whilst rounding Cape Horn in 1913. She limped into Stanley for repairs but the high cost prevented any being carried out. After various moorings in Stanley Harbour, a violent gale in 1936 forced the Lady Liz into her current resting place. This is a favourite place to get pictures with the back drop of Stanley and the mountains to the West.

Stanley (Pass by)

FIGAS, (Falkland Islands Government Air Service) has operated Islander aircraft since October 1979 and is the Southern-most operator of the type. The current fleet of five Islanders is essential in keeping the more remote communities connected to Stanley. In addition to air taxi flights, the carrier also undertakes air ambulance, post delivery, freight, environmental monitoring, fishery patrol, and scenic flights.

Government House Drive (Pass by)

Situated towards the western end of Stanley on Ross Road, Government House is both the home and the workplace of the Governor who is King Charles' representative in the Falklands.

Whalebone Arch (Pass by)

Constructed in 1933 from the jawbones of two blue whales, it commemorates a century of continuous British administration in the Falklands. Situated outside Christchurch Cathedral, near the supermarket, gift shop and the tender landing stage it provides excellent photo opportunities and is reccommended as a drop off point for cruise ship visitors.

Falkland Islands Museum (Pass by)

Islanders are very proud of the Museum which provides a great insight into the social and maritime history of the Islands. Be careful though as time slips away very quickly when you enter and are welcomed by the staff who are happy to chat and answer your questions. Recommended as an optional drop of point at the end of tour with just a short walk to the tender landing stage for cruise ship visitors.

Gypsy Cove

  • 30m
Our guides will walk with you to see Magellanic penguins and other shore birds and views overlooking the harbours.
