This is an unmissable tour on a trip to the city of Ushuaia. Although it may be a bit overrated due to the prices they charge for it. However, it is a very interesting and educational experience. Different parts of this national park are visited, such as Zaratiegue Cove, the End of the World Postal Unit, the trails of Cerro Guanaco, Lake Roca, Lapataia Bay, the Alakush visitor center, and it concludes with the train ride. There are several options to take this tour, so it is recommended to gather information beforehand and select the best operator and the best option according to your preferences. 100% recommended.

Bad experience... train if you can call this kind of dirty and smelly wagon.... scruffy and dangerous in my opinion... It seems to go with the tractor I swear... We had the last day in Reggio Calabria and so we decide to do even the Ionian part up to Locri.... at least enjoy the view of the coast and the view by train... imagine... with dirty and old glasses, shaky.... a nightmare I would say... gross... really... At least Trenitalia should put a worthy train to travel in conditions of safety and tranquility ...
Gentile Loredana, Dalla descrizione della sua esperienza, notiamo che la recensione si riferisce a un servizio ferroviario in Italia, mentre questa pagina riguarda la nostra escursione al Parque Nacional Tierra del Fuego e al Tren del Fin del Mundo, in Patagonia, Argentina. È quindi probabile che la recensione sia stata pubblicata per errore su questa attività. Le suggeriamo di verificare la piattaforma e di ripubblicare il suo commento nella pagina corretta, così da poter essere utile ad altri viaggiatori. Cordiali saluti.
A magical place, like all protected areas of the country. Wonderful landscapes and naturally majestic. And the TRAIN OF THE END OF THE WORLD a very nice and particular experience, to know a little of our history. UNMISSABLE
