Although we got rained out most of the trip. The train ride was amazing. Was lucky to be able to see a group of wild horses. The national park looks like a painting !! Highly recommend it.
The experience included breathtaking views, a knowledgeable and interesting guide explaining the landscape, indigenous people and political plays for the territory. The train ride had breathtaking views of a winding river among the mountains.
To escape from the heat of the city with my wife we went to the Passo del Tonale at the Sporting hotel on the suggestion of friends who had already stayed. Welcoming was great and immediately we felt at home. Very nice room, attention to detail, clean and tidy in Alpine style. Excellent cuisine with a choice of traditional mountain and non-mountain dishes; the staff in the room very professional, polite and available to meet every customer need. The brand new Skyspa is a true oasis to relax and regenerate with exceptional mountain views. The very professional animation available and not intrusive with excursion proposals suitable for everyone. We arrived customers and left friends!!
They didn't come by us to the hotel, we waited 1 hour outside, we talked a thousand times and they told us to wait there, after an hour they sent us a taxi which we had to pay and we arrived an hour later to reach the group, we lost 1 hour of tour and what we had to pay the taxi, very bad Service very bad communication, I would not hire them again.
Parquet Forest is very beautiful and has very nice views. Lapataia Bay and its walkway are very beautiful for taking photos.
A wonderful train ride. The landscape is charming, like something out of a story, with much to see on the way to the end of the World. Looking forward to returning!
Hola! Muchas gracias por compartir tus comentarios. No alegra saber que has pasado un hermoso día y disfrutaste de la excursión!
Incredible 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.
Thank you for your fantastic review! We're glad you enjoyed the train journey. We apologize for the wait on your return trip and appreciate your suggestion about transportation options. We hope to welcome you back soon for another great experience!
Terra del Fuego National Park we did with microbus tour Enterprise where the guide was explaining everything and stopping at every attractive point so we could walk and take pictures. We get to the post office that opens in the summer season , where we can stamp the passport with the seal of the end of the world . Finally we end the tour with a ride by train, which is paid the part. We will see the landscape and listen to the prison history of the time. Very interesting. At the end of the train line, the tour operators wait for us in the minibus to return to the hotel. Tour of approximately 6h.
Obrigado por compartilhar sua experiência no Parque Nacional Terra del Fuego! Agradecemos sua recomendação e esperamos vê-lo em futuras aventuras!
Don’t miss the last postal scam of Argentina that is in the National Park. A simple construction of the Argentine Mail but with much meaning
¡Muchas gracias por tus comentarios! Nos alegra saber que disfrutaste de esta linda experiencia. ¡Gracias por elegirnos, esperamos tenerte nuevamente! Saludos, Tangol.
This is a great way to see the park. The train ride is really great and we had a nice walk in the park and learned about the trees and flowers in that region.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoyed the train ride and the walk in the park. We hope to see you again for more adventures in the future!
