Voice of Travelers to Stanley

A girl was my ticket to Stanley

My name is Lito from Santiago. I have recently met someone from Stanley in Falkland Islands. One day, I planned to surprise her by booking a plane ticket to Stanley and visit her. I availed of a ticket via LATAM Chile. Their services were good, and the staff was accommodating as always. When I arrived at Stanley, I went to her place. She was greatly surprised by the sight she saw. We were both crying with joy. She toured me around Stanley, taking me to different places there. I particularly enjoyed our visit at their museum. She bought an admission ticket for us. The place is quite small, but there a lot of interesting things to see there. It tells the story of the colonization of the islands. I particularly learned a lot about Stanley. Too bad I had to leave after a few days. Because of her, I will surely book a ticket back.

Exploring the hidden gem of Stanley

My name is Miguel from Punta Arenas. Lately, I was so invested with wildlife in colder ecosystems. The presence of penguins amaze me. So when I found out I only needed a one-way ticket to get to a place like this, I immediately looked for the place. Apparently, it was in Falkland Islands. I booked a ticket to Stanley via LATAM Chile. The crew and staff of the place were great, I had a resounding sleep throughout the journey. When I have arrived at Stanley, I was guided to proceed to East Falkland where the Volunteer Point is present.I love that there were a few people, but there was sure a lot of King Penguins there. Being able to walk around them was pretty exciting for me. Immersing with these penguins was worth all the effort and money for the plane ticket going to Stanley. I would surely book a ticket back to the place.
