ITINERARY

Ushuaia, capital of Tierra del Fuego, is located on the shores of the Beagle Channel and surrounded by the Martiales mountains, which offers a unique landscape in Argentina thanks to a combination of mountains, sea, forests, and glaciers.

We will visit the Barrio La Misión (the place where the city was founded in 1884), the Provincial Legislature (former Government House), and the upper area of ​​the city which will not allow us to enjoy an incredible panoramic view of Ushuaia and the Beagle Channel.

During the tour, we will also be able to appreciate the old houses belonging to the first Fuegian families.

On the way back we will visit the manufacturing area, to end our tour at the Maritime Museum and the Presidio of the city of Ushuaia. Those who wish can go down there to visit it (entrance to the museum not included) or continue on the bus back to their Hotel.
