Amazing experience - It was an amazing experience — every detail was carefully planned and perfectly executed. I highly recommend this team: they’re very attentive, easy to communicate with, and always punctual. I’d like to give a special shout-out to our guide, Fer — she’s an excellent guide, very attentive, with great knowledge of trekking and of the route we did today (Laguna Esmeralda), and also a truly kind and friendly person. I’ll definitely be recommending you to all my friends who visit here.

Excellent experience. Recommended!! - I had an excellent experience during my trip in June. I hired several excursions with them: Tierra del Fuego National Park with the End of the World Train, Beagle Canal Navigation, Trekking to the Emerald Lagoon, and also transfer to and from the airport. Everything was flawless from day one. I want to highlight especially the attention of Nico, who advised me with great dedication in choosing the excursions and was watching every detail. The purchase was clear and safe, and they complied with absolutely everything agreed. The guides were great: Jesi, in the National Park, gave us a very complete explanation about the flora, fauna and history of the place. On the trek to the Emerald Lagoon we were also accompanied by super professional, attentive and warm guides. The transfer drivers were also very friendly, punctual, and upon arriving in Ushuaia were already waiting for me at the airport. In addition, a day before each excursion I would receive a message with all the necessary information and pick up time. The coordination was excellent. I highly recommend this Enterprise, and if you can, contact Nico, who was a great support before and during the trip. Thank you for making my experience in Ushuaia unforgettable!
