Start the day with pick-up from your hotel in Ushuaia. Once in the car, you'll head west in the direction of the National Park. While leaving Ushuaia, you'll start finding nice views of the Beagle Channel and the Andes Mountain Range. Before entering the park, discover the historical and picturesque Pipo River Valley, where the prisoners from the Old Penal Colony of Ushuaia harvested wood for over 50 years with the aid of a narrow gauge train. If it is in your interest you'll stop to visit the station of the famous train at "The End of the World" (which is a reconstruction of the last section of the old train of the prison) and from here you'll finally enter the park either by car or by train (optional one-hour ride).
Once in the national park, you'll have the freedom to explore all the main highlights with a tour itinerary tailored to your interests, ensuring you get the most out of your visit.
So, if you are an active person who likes to go on walks, your guide will invite you to take different trails to discover additional views and get closer to nature. Or, if you prefer a less active experience, your guide will plan it as a sightseeing tour with different scenic stops that you will enjoy without the need for long walks.
At the farthest corner of the park, you will find one of the main attractions: Lapataia Bay. Besides being a gorgeous bay of the Beagle Channel, it has a big symbolic value because here you'll find the end of the Argentine National Route Number 3, known as the southern end of the Pan-American Highway. While visiting this place, you will have many photo opportunities and also some nice walks.
You'll also have the opportunity to visit the stunning Roca Lake, a body of pristine waters created by the action of glaciers during 100,000 years. It is the perfect place for a leisurely walk and a moment of relaxation while enjoying a hot drink against the backdrop of this natural wonder.
Visit Zaratiegui Bay to discover a dramatic view of the Beagle Channel. This gorgeous bay offers magnificent landscapes framed by the sub Antarctic evergreen forest and jagged peaks of the Andes. It is a great place for a challenging coastal walk or a peaceful stroll by the sea's shore.
You will also find here the "End of the World" post office, a cozy and famous post office where you can stamp your passport with special stamps and send postcards.

Excellent guide, Nicolas from Alma Calma Tours Ushuaia, who had a thorough knowledge of the history of the area and an In-depth knowledge of fauna and flora. Very helpful he suggested excellent ideas to improve our two days in Ushuahia included two excellent restaurants.
Our day in Tierra del Fuego with Nicolas as our guide was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we first inquired about bookings, Nicolas was incredibly helpful, and on the day of our tour, he was promptly there for pick-up. Despite truly miserable weather, Nicolas's quick thinking and adjustments completely saved the day. His extensive knowledge of the area was impressive, and his passion for the region was exactly what you hope for in a guide. He led us on several short hikes around the park, expertly explaining the ecosystem and much more along the way. As an added bonus, he even provided delicious hot beverages and local pastries for an afternoon pick-me-up, which was a very welcome touch. We cannot say enough wonderful things about Nicolas. He truly created a very memorable day for us in Ushuaia, turning what could have been a washout into a fantastic experience.
Andrea was a fabulous guide and driver, terrific day in the Park
Przewodnik dysponował ogromną wiedzą o regionie, o mieście Ushuaia i parku narodowym Terra del Fuego. Pokazał nam wiele roślin i zwierząt występujących w parku, zauważył i pokazał nam wieloryba, który pływał w zatoce, zabrał nas na spacer w kilka pięknych miejsc. Przygotował nawet przekąski i napoje na piknik w naturze. Ogólnie wycieczka była bardzo udana.
I enjoyed the Tour very much. Nicolas showed us all of the Highlights and gave me the possibility of the best view points for my Videos. So he parked at a site where I got the train coming from the Front passing by. His extraordynary given informations and his kindness I loved very much. At noon he had a picnic for us with tea and biscuits in the Green. Everything was worth it.
