This five-hour Ushuaia outing combines the End of the World Train with Tierra del Fuego National Park’s best-known sights. Expect bilingual guides such as Martina, Aileen, or Jacky, hotel pickup, short walks, photo stops, and a visit to Argentina’s southernmost post office. The park fee is extra.
“Guide spoke perfect English. Our driver always got the best parking spot.”
Spend about six hours riding Ushuaia’s End of the World Train, touring Tierra del Fuego National Park, and visiting bays, lakes, viewpoints, and the southernmost post office. The bilingual guide, hotel pickup, and compact group make this a useful first look at the region, though park admission costs extra.
“It was a little difficult to find the tour operator on the pier. It would be helpful if they had a big sign or better directions like some of the other tours.”
Spend 12 hours crossing Salta’s Lerma Valley, Escoipe Gorge, Cuesta del Obispo, and Los Cardones National Park before two free hours in colonial Cachi. Bilingual guides such as Ximena, Fernando, and Carolina have led recent departures. Bring water, snacks, sturdy shoes, and patience for a long mountain drive.
“The guide Ximena and the driver Marcel were amazing. Ximena perfectly told everything in english, we didn't feel left out because we don't know spanish. For altitude sickness we could try coca leaves, smell pupusa or other herbs. It was very informative tour, recommend it for everyone.”
Spend up to 12 hours with a guide such as Martina or Jacqueline, riding the End of the World Train, visiting Lapataia Bay and Ensenada Zaratiegui, then sailing past sea lions, birds, penguins, and Les Éclaireurs Lighthouse.
“We had an amazing time. Train ride was very nice but the history behind it made me very emotional. I highly recommend this trip. Our guide Martini was very cute and helpful. She was very nice. We loved the beagle channel navigation. We could see penguins and seals. We also spotted whales.”
You’ll ride from Ushuaia’s cruise pier to Tierra del Fuego National Park, Lake Roca, Zaratiegui Cove, and Lapataia Bay. Guides such as Patricia and Vanessa add useful local insight. The tour lasts about four to five hours, but group size and timing can vary, so confirm details before booking.
“The tour was not what we booked. We were to be in a passenger van with no more than 12 -15 people and ended up on a bus with people doing the train excursion which we specifically did not want. We were put in a van and after that was full, transferred to a bus, and then went around picking up more people on the bus. At the park we had to wait for the others to get their train tickets and enjoy their ride on the train while the van we were supposed to be in was touring the park. We got to some main points we wanted to…”
Pick a continent, a gate, or a kind of day.
