Patrick Watts Tour to Volunteer Point on Falkland Islands out of Stanley is well worth the trip! When the cruise ship tours were booked, we found his tour and thoroughly enjoyed the day. Many tour companies want money up front, but getting into Stanley via cruise ship is a 50/50 proposition depending on weather. Patrick Watts did not require prepayment. The tour operator met us at the port and got us off and going on our way very quickly. It is a rough, bumpy ride off road to the Point, but our driver did an excellent job making the trip as safe and enjoyable as possible. A stop on the way at the Bake Safe was reflective of the hospitality of the islanders, as well as the packed lunch that was included on the tour. The sight of hundreds of King Penguins, Gentoo and Magellan penguins is breathtaking. Photo ops abound. This was a great location to see so many penguins in one place. A short tour of the town on the way back was also provided. Many thanks to all the tour guides who made this trip possible. We highly recommend this tour company.

FYI, for unvaxxed folks trying to cruise: I called Princess to book a cruise, and they require that you have a medical condition why you're not vaccinated in order to cruise (ie. a medical doctor's letter).
