Creator's Key Takeaways

It was amazing and probably the closest we will ever be to the penguins, especially king penguins, cuz they are harder to find.

It was about an hour on a gravel road and then an hour literally off-roading. Uh, but it was definitely worth the money and the amount of time to get out there.

I didn't prepare. I didn't bring enough clothes, but it's also raining a lot more than I expected.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book the warden's house at Volunteer Point now if you want to stay there, as they are booked out for over 2 years.
Prepare for heavy rain and cold by wearing multiple layers and thermal underwear.
