- richm8740 contributionsAwesome cruise on Beagle canalGreat trip on this boat to see penguins sea lions and we also got to spot some Orcas along the way. Great views and educational staff on board. Very friendly and helpful. Nice spaces indoor and out for the cruise in any weather. Would recommend this to anybodyWritten March 23, 2024
- susanwM3007KV0 contributionsFUN!This trip was so much fun and our guide, Marcel, was one of the best guides ever. Tierra del Fuego Natl Park is very beautiful with spectacular sceneryWritten February 24, 2024
- Lisdar0 contributionsNot to be missedIncredible place and train fabulous place really enjoyed the area the Train was fabulous especially as one of the Engines was made in Wales 🏴 However the train journey out was great but we had to wait a considerable time for our return journey I would recommend having the train out but get your Transport to pick you up at the other end We loved the Railway station and the surrounding district and the Prisoners/actors that you have the photos with which are not expensive.Written February 15, 2024
- CharlotteB1130 contributionsSuper fun day in the National ParkI only had a day and half in Ushuaia and wanted to get out and see the natural landscapes and this tour was the perfect way to see the National Park! I loved the combo of paddling and hiking for variety, and even in the overcast weather, the park is beautiful. It was an active tour but without being too difficult I'd say. And we had a delicious lunch in their covered dome! Great work from our guide Gabriel, driver Octavio and paddling guide Felipe, they made it such a fun day!Written February 3, 2024
- GlobetrottingSwede0 contributionsGreat way to see the fjords of PatagoniaThis is a great short cruise, for anyone who wishes to see, and understand the fjords and the archipelago of Patagonia. If you sail from Punta Arenas to Ushuaia, the first day is a hike and Zodiak visit to see the penguins. The second day is all about glaciers with glacier alley, south of the Darwin range. The third day the objective is to disembark at Cape Horn, but this is only possible, if the weather permits. Note that this is an expedition style cruise, which means that you use zodiacs to disembark and visit the shores.Written February 1, 2024
- christinalJ8903XN0 contributionsExcellent tour!We were only in Ushuaia for a day and a half, and wanted to make the most of our time. This was definitely my favourite activity during that time. It is a historic double-decker bus which has so much charm as soon as you walk in. service is absolutely exemplary. Starting from where you purchase the tickets, to the actual tour itself, it was amazing. Our bus driver was Javier, and the English speaking tour guide was Thomas. Both Javier and Thomas were so helpful with all of the tourists by taking photos, and making sure that everybody enjoyed the tour. Thomas is incredibly knowledgeable, and was able to share so much information during the tour which we greatly appreciated. Not only is Thomas incredibly intelligent, he is a genuinely kind hearted person who truly wants the best for everyone. He is going to go very far in the tourism industry. He has a perfect personality, as well as the knowledge to provide a great experience for the English speaking tourists… Of which there were many! Javier was always there as well to make sure that the tour around smoothly, and to help whenever it was needed. This is not your regular tour where it is only pre-recorded historical information about the places you see. Thomas was also able to provide a personalized experience by sharing his knowledge as well. The time went by so quickly, and we appreciated that it stops twice for everyone to get out and take photos. it was definitely the highlight of our time in Ushuaia. A big thank you to Thomas and Javier for making the extra special for everyone.Written January 27, 2024
- EveryStepEveryNation0 contributionsMagical!Ushuaia is magical! It's a small southernmost city in the world and it's very navigable by foot. It's clean, safe and a wonderful place to start the journey and embark expedition ship to Antarctica!Written January 13, 2024
- V8983ZTjamesw0 contributionsHiking and rafting Patagonia National ParkA beautiful day. Interesting to learn about the biodiversity. While hiking we were fortunate to observe wild horses, red fox, and many more. Our guide, Gabriel and Octavio were excellent. Highly recommendWritten January 12, 2024
- christophergQ3044ST0 contributionsHighly recommended.Professionally conducted tour by knowledgeable, friendly, and fun guides. The enthusiasm of the guides was infectious, which ensured a positive atmosphere throughout the whole day. Excellent communication regards pickup location and time. All activities were conducted safely with a comprehensive brief prior to the on water activity.Written January 9, 2024

- bethoSydney0 contributionsWe loved it, great way to see the national parkThis is an excellent tour and we can’t recommend it enough especially if you get Juan, Octavia and phillipe as your guides. Juan spoke very good English and was very funny too. The weather was typical for the area, it was snowing when we arrived, it then became sunny and then rained… repeat every hours or so. This was never a problem as we were given all the equipment we needed, waterproof trousers and gum boots for the rafting. The rafting was fun and not too challenging. We then stopped for lunch which was fabulous, the warming chicken stew was just what was needed. Next we headed out for our hike which was beautiful. This is a full day tour and worth every dollar ! Thanks so much to juan and the ana Antartur team.Written December 29, 2023
- ivyh8580 contributionsGreat overview of Tierra del Fuego national park!The entire experience was seamless with this tour company. The hiking trail and canoe route were moderately challenging with plenty of breaks and photo opportunities. We had a group ranging from age 18 to 65, and everyone had an incredible time. Octavio and Gabriel provided an excellent experience.Written December 24, 2023
- AlwaysTraveling650 contributionsInformative and InexpensiveStumbled across the bus tour while we stopped at visitor center for information - right by each other. It was about 1-1/2 hours, provided some great town history along with a couple stops to get off bus. It was a great value for only $10USDWritten December 19, 2023
- IB333450 contributionsGreat tour but I didn’t like the jeepTour was nice and our driver/ guide was great. I didn’t give it a five star because the car has an odd design. There is no way to see the road ahead. The view is blocked. All you can see is from the side windows.Written December 16, 2023

Hace unos dias, el 11 de diciembre, hice esta excursión con la empresa Excursiones Ushuaia @Ignacio_guía y fue un día soñado. El guía Nicolas paso a buscarme por el hotel a las 8 hs., fuimos un grupo de 10 personas. Llegamos hasta un punto donde dejamos la combi y comenzamos a caminar. Aprox empezamos la caminata a las 9 hs, el camino es en subida, tiene dificultad pero con un estado físico normal, con esfuerzo y un buen calzado - la empresa te asesora donde consiguirlos- se puede hacer la excursión. Realmente el camino es muy lindo y el lugar a donde llegas es soñadooooo, realmente soñado. Subir hasta el glaciar, meterte entre los bloques de hielo y esos lagos de color indescriptibleeeeee, es hermoso. No hay palabras para describir el paisaje. El servicio de la empresa @Ignacio_guía muy bueno, el asesoramiento de parte de Rocio y el guía Nico excelentes. El costo es normal para los precios de las excursiones en Ushuaia. Vale la pena hacer este paseo. La dificultad es media, tres horas de caminata en subida. Tengo 54 años, entreno normal, tengo una rodilla que me duele cuando la esfuerzo y pude hacerla sin dificultad pero con esfuerzo. Es como la del Huemul en El Chalten pero un poco mas larga la caminata. La rererecomiendo.

Hello. I am a mountain guide from Ushuaia, I guide this excursion regularly. I'm going to let you know that the tour photo is outdated. Currently the caves that remain in the glacier are much smaller and it is up to the guide whether to enter or not, for safety reasons. The cave seen in the photo no longer exists. Keep in mind that glaciers change from month to month.
In any case, I recommend this tour because the views are still beautiful.
Thank you

Hola! estoy planificando un viaje al sur argentino y todas las recomendaciones son bienvenidas.
En un principio estaba en duda si irme a Ushuaia o a la zona de El Calafate; finalmente investigando un poco CREO que me he decidido por El Calafate (recibo recomendaciones si no es así o si sí).
Enfocándome de lleno en la opción del Calafate, la idea es visitar El calafate, Glaciar Perito Moreno (realizar un mini trekking y la pasarella que no entiendo bien si hay que ir aparte o si yendo a hacer el mini trekking paso por ahí).
Luego partir para El Chaltén e instalarme allí unos... 4 días(?
Tomar como descanso y recorrer la ciudad el día de llegada al Chaltén, así al otro día de mañana salir a hacer el primer trekking tranqui (recibo recomendaciones), al otro día hacer el de la Laguna de los Tres que es el más conocido.
DUDAS
- Conviene hospedarse 2 o 3 noches en El Calafate y otras 4 o 5 noches en El Chaltén? O conviene quedarse de firme en el Calafate e ir por el día a un trekking en el Chaltén?
- Mi presupuesto es de 500 dólares aproximadamente, qué opciones me recomiendan elegir con ese presupuesto?
El itinerario estimativo sería el siguiente:
Día 1: Buquebus Montevideo - Buenos Aires + vuelo Buenos Aires - El Calafate
Día 2: llegada a El Calafate (descanso)
Día 3: Trekking, Glaciar Perito Moreno.
Día 4: ida en bus El Calafate - El Chaltén (descanso).
Día 5: Trekking por el día a una Laguna más tranqui.
Día 6: Trekking a Laguna de Los Tres (la clásica del Chaltén, 5 horas de caminata ida y 5 horas de caminata vuelta).
Día 7: El Chaltén
Día 8: El Chaltén
Día 9: vuelta en bus del Chaltén a Calafate
Día 10: El Calafate
Día 11: Vuelta El Calafate - Buenos Aires y Montevideo
Muchas gracias y estaré esperando opiniones :)
