Go back in time - Under the beautiful ochre colors of autumn that painted the Fuegian landscape, our excursion combined the iconic visit to the End of the World Train with a tour of the highlights of Tierra del Fuego National Park. I planned to buy the entrance to the National Park there, the package of the tour included the Train pass. The experience on the train is interesting, with a setting that includes actors representing prisoners and the possibility of acquiring a photograph with them. The journey is comfortable and accompanied by an audio guide that tells the story of the construction of the railway. Although the narrative evokes a rather grim past, knowing this story is significant, a shame that they gave the name of a river to a murderous prisoner who escaped, when he already had a native name. The walk in the park gave us breathtaking views, enhanced by the autumn ochre palette. We paused at La Macarena Station, to climb the waterfall and then reached the final station. Continue exploring the park by combi with the agency, instead of returning by train. The full train journey takes approximately one hour. Undoubtedly, a recommended excursion to get to know this historic site and enjoy the serenity of the park, immersed in the nuances of the mountain range.

Fantastic experience - One of the must-see experiences in Ushuaia. Reliving the last stretch of the prisoners, to reach the forest and cut wood for the construction of the prison and the city of Ushuaia, makes it a very enriching experience. Along the way they tell you the whole story as you contemplate these incredible landscapes. Guests can enjoy breakfast/snack or lunch at the train station. Very good prices we found. Cheaper than those found in downtown restaurants. The lamb casserole a 10!

The End of the World Train, a magical experience - A magical and infallible experience if you come to this beautiful city as Ushuaia, the round trip is two hours where you will see a beautiful landscape while telling you the history of the train and about the fauna and flora of the National Park. Of course, the only thing to criticize and for you to keep in mind is that YOU MUST buy the entrance to the National Park, you can buy it right there in the ticket store for 9 thousand pesos if SOS reidenfe Argentine.

Great views with snow - 🔴It was always in my plans to meet him, more than today was a spectacular day in terms of sight and all the way with snow (I love him). You buy the entrance to the park right there, there's a souvenir shop, and a small cafeteria. ( prices somewhat high) - The austral photo with the prisoners costs 12 thousand pesos, you pay at the macarena station (DO NOT ACCEPT PAYMENT MARKET) was not very excited to buy it but it was very comical and fun, the truth is the route is short, if you then stay to do the excursion of the park, between you get off in both stations you see the surroundings and you take some photo. I couldn't take my picture when I got off the train, because I feel like it was quick and they disarmed it in a touch, kind of rushed, so take advantage of taking your pictures while I can on everything. -The funny re guys, I laughed a lot, It's worth it?always read me no, but I paid for it and loved the views, only that and its story told through a headset, give you ticket to go for a hot chocolate to black lagoon located in the (Center ). We'll go for it. It's part of an end-of-the-world tourist attraction you should know

A great experience! - We enjoyed this experience. We hired a tour company and purchased premium tickets and it was well worth it because we did not have to stand in line. The scenery was absolutely beautiful. It is a tourist spot but when you travel to see places, so do others. Enjoy the beauty of it!

Nice but... - It was the only province I didn't know, it has nice landscapes but it's to go ina single time maxima 4 days, in winter would be another thing but with 4 excursions at this time of year there is nothing more to see, I found extremely expensive the prices in the shops, in the food more or less as in good airs and the attention of all very cordial but I don't think it will return

Unmissable - It is a beautiful walk, one of the unmissable to visit Ushuaia. It is expensive for the short duration of the walk but the cost of tickets is well invested in quality and performance.

Massively overpriced. - At 60k ARP, about AUD90, the (diesel, not coal) train was already expensive. The train itself is cute and the views in the national park were worth a trip, but better to see the national park another way. It wasn't until after we bought our tickets that we discovered we still had to pay for entry into the national park - even though we never set foot on it. All up, we paid 90k ARP per person for a trip that was worth about 15k ARP.

Save your money - Not sure what I was expecting but it definitely wasn’t what we got. The train journey was pathetic, you have to pay to enter the national park ( literally standing on a train platform for 10 minutes) Staff were pushy and tried to get us to buy a photo of the “experience” even following us back to the train and knocking on the window . I don’t think I’ve ever wrote a bad review before but made an exception for this con!!! Save your money is my personal advice.
