Itinerary
I discovered one of the most beautiful panoramic viewpoints in Ushuaia. Come to discover the history of the valleys, glaciers and winter centers.
We will have an adorable encounter meeting the famous Siberian huskies
Get to know one of the most recognized Ski and Snowboard sports centers in Latin America.
We will visit the Garibaldi Pass, the highest point of the crossing of the Andes mountain range, where you can discover the famous "Escondido Lake".
You are going to contemplate a glacial lake framed in the Andes mountain range. Crystal clear waters with trout species for sport fishing, beavers, and a great diversity of birds. Just 57 km north of Ushuaia, in a native forest environment where Lenga predominates. That is why sawmills and timber production existed until 2016. Even today the original sheds and the old sawmills that offered work to professionals from Chile or the province of Misiones in Argentina, due to their woodworking experience, still exist.
One of the 3 largest lakes in Argentina. On the shores of the lake we will have time to enjoy a pristine place, land where the "Onas del Norte" lived, as the Yámanas Indians called the Shelknam Indians. In that same magical lake, we are going to enjoy a rich snack with wine to replenish our energy
While traveling to the Great Lakes area, we will get to know this spectacular winter center

This was an unforgettable tour, the driver was prompt, polite and very knowledgeable, the scenery was unimaginable (we did have a dry sunny day) and one that will stick in my memory, I highly recommend you try this.
This was such a great half day! Easy pick up at my hotel, then two other stops around the block to get our total of 5 travelers. Our guide was amazing, Fergundo (I may be butchering spelling - I’m sorry my friend!). The itinerary follows exactly as it’s laid out. We had a 4x4 with 6 seats. He even slowed down to explain additional landmarks not listed in the info - quick stops, didn’t get out of the car. We spent 5-10 mins at two viewpoints and then visited two magical lakes to walk around a bit. The place we stopped for coffee and a snack was so quaint with beautiful grounds to walk around. No complaints - I highly recommend this tour.
The interpreter Stephen was fantastic!! He gave us an excellent understanding of the history, the geography and the culture of the area. Great personality. The driver, Victor, was amazing. He knows his 4x4 skills. Great driving!!
Ramon, the guide is a well educated guide and an excellent teacher. We learned a lot about the Lakes area and environmental protection in place. The vehicles used for the tour were in good condition and utilized for small groups, 6 travellers in total.
We stayed 4 days in Ushuaia. We did the off-road tour, navigation in the Beagle Channel, national park with the train tour, and the Cerro Martial tour. We loved everything, we stayed in Loica's apartment. Highly recommend!!
Wonderful adventure to know the lakes, visit the breeding of dogs used for transportation in the snow and to have wine with cheese and bread on the edge of the lake, after a trip dribling atollers. Our driver-guide was show!
The group tour ended up in a private excursion because we were the only ones who booked that schedule. Thank you to the agency for maintaining our visit. Diego, our guide was perfect, gave us a lot of explanations about the area, history, climate, life in general in Ushuaia, all in perfect English for us. He also answered all our questions with kindness. He's really been at our service. And even when the SUV went flat, he handled the situation with great calm and professionalism. A big thank you to Diego. The 4x4 tour was simply magnificent: the scenery, the Garibaldi Passage, the hidden lake, Lake Fagnano, the beaver dams (missing beavers, damage) and the snack at Lake Fagnano. A real change of scenery in nature. A half day outing to recommend.
We did the 4x4 excursion, the vehicle arrived a little late, with prior notice. But the good vibes of the driver/guide Gonzalo made you forget the delay. A genius. The excursion is 100% recommended, beautiful landscapes
Fue un recorrido con tres o cuatro paradas tanto de vistas como de zonas/personas con algún atractivo. Impresionante el Lago Fagnano que cubre a lo largo casi un 80% del largo de la isla y es el único de la Argentina que desemboca en el Océano Pacífico, además de cubrir el límite entre las placas tectónicas de Sudamérica y Scotia, lo que da pequeñas actividades energéticas continuas. Muy simpático el zorro mascota de la Prefectura y fantásticas las torta fritas de la parada en el poblado de La Comunidad.
Take the tour with Gonzalo who was our guide, he has a lot of information and is very aware of his passengers and is a very kind and cordial person. If you are looking for a tour where you want to learn and enjoy, look for Gonzalo.
Beautiful experience, I spent an afternoon observing the mountains and the lakes. We had a snack at Lago Fagnano, with the warm attention of Gonzalo, who throughout the trip was telling us different things, which made it very interesting and enjoyable. Highly recommended
The tour led by Gonzalo was super enjoyable, giving data the entire route. Stopping at strategic places and telling the related story. And the best of all; You finish the tour eating the best fried cakes in the county. 😋
If you have little time, it is an option to travel the scenic route through the Andes of the Big Island and enjoy the lakes. The agency was very punctual, the vehicle is comfortable and there was enough time to enjoy peaceful places and the beauty of the landscape. We were lucky enough to spot a gray fox and beaver dams, as well as snow-capped peaks in the middle of summer.
Excellent landscape and the route. Ramón, the driver and guide, is a Phenomenon!!!!!, super attentive, making each km something special and different.
Excursão desnecessária. As vistas são bonitas, o motorista e o guia também eram bons, mas as paisagens poderiam ser vistas em 5min. cada. A parada para um pequeno lanche é desnecessária e simples ao extremo. Enfim, 3h do dia perdida.
I took the Lagos express tour. 3h~4h tour leaving from Van de Ushuaia to Lake Fagnano. Absolutely dispensable. Tour completely dispensable. There is no reason to do so. The agency and the guide are very good and professional, but the itinerary is terrible.
As paisagens são lindas, o guia muito atencioso. Tempo de atividade adequado, custo benefício excelente.
Excellent 4x4 express departure, the guide Ariel was amazing, very fun, very educational, I highly recommend it!!
We did this excursion because navigation to the Beagle Channel was suspended (due to the weather)... And their choice was a success. Ariel, the guide, stopped at each place and viewpoint along the route, showing us what was agreed upon and more. We ended up having a snack at Lake Fagnano, priceless!!!
Excelente excursión ,muy recomendable.Nuestro guía Ariel un excelente profesional muy amable y ameno sabe un montón y nos mostró muchísimos lugares . Gracias Ariel por hacer de este un magnífico tour
