Good place, book ticket in advance. - It is a walk with beautiful landscapes, it does not take long, it reaches the Tierra del Fuego National Park. It is advisable to book in advance, we had to sign up on a waiting list and fortunately we had space.

Incredible ♥️ - Without a doubt one of the best walks in my entire tour of Argentina! The landscapes are indescribable, training is super comfortable, although the Walk is then and you hear the story of how it started, the season is DIVINE, we did NOT get snow but it was too cold, and it looked beautiful. It's simply a walk you HAVE to take if you've made it to the end of the world!

good experience - Good experience, the tour well organized, there is free parking.
The audio in several languages explaining the interesting story of the train and the prisoners.
We opted for the premium service, which included a delicious meal, but I don't know if it justifies the price difference.

Very nice experience - The park is beautiful, with great landscapes. The train is a pleasant and interesting experience to learn a little about the history of Ushuaia. The bad thing was that the heating was burning my foot. The funniest photo with the prisoners.

the incredible landscapes
the train and the parks are well worth it
You can't believe what you see and the camera takes a bit but seeing it in person is wonderful.
A magical place

Nothing else - A somewhat dull ride.
You can cross the park by car, on foot or by train. I don't think the train was worth it. It makes you sleepy. But going to the park and station is wonderful!

Not worth it. - It's not worth doing. It is very overrated. If you don't take out in the seats that have tables. You go in cars with 6 people and all of them packed together.

Overrated - An extremely expensive train ride for what you see. There is nothing that cannot be seen with a simple walk through the park.
