End of the World Train & National Park, Tourist or Premium

About This Experience

On this 5.5-hour tour the train ride comes first, and the drive through Tierra del Fuego National Park starts from Estación Parque Nacional, the end of the line. After hotel pickup in Ushuaia, you board the End of the World Train with a one-way ticket in Tourist or Premium class, depending on the option booked. A guide rides with the group and stays with you in the park, working in English and Spanish.

From the station the tour continues by road to Lake Acigami, Laguna Verde, the Alakush Visitor Center and Lapataia Bay, where the sign marks the end of Ruta Nacional 3. The drive back to Ushuaia ends at your hotel. The tour averages 3.9 out of 5 from 113 reviews, and reviewers rate value for money at 3.5; one wished the park entry had been part of the price, to save time at the gate.

Premium class, as the railway describes it, adds priority boarding and a meal on board. For an 8 October 2026 departure, Tourist class cost $178 per person and Premium $390. The train ticket is subject to availability: if it cannot be confirmed, the operator offers a full refund or a lower class with a partial refund. To confirm the booking, it also needs each passenger's name, date of birth, passport or ID number, nationality, hotel and phone number.

The national park entry fee is not included, and the railway requires it for every passenger, even those who never leave the train: ARS 40,000 for foreign visitors since 1 June 2026, available online in advance. The listing quotes an older dollar estimate. Cancellation terms are stricter than on most tours here, with a full refund only up to 2 days before departure. Bring a passport or ID for every traveler, plus warm, waterproof layers.

Good to Know & Caveats

• To confirm, the operator needs each passenger's full name, date of birth, ID or passport number, nationality, hotel and phone number, plus a passport photo for under-18s.
• Cancellation must be made at least 2 days in advance for a full refund, not 24 hours as on most tours here.
• The End of the World Train sells out in December to February, when most cruise ships call, so train seats for those months are best booked early.
• Weather changes fast in Ushuaia and snow is common from June to September; warm, waterproof layers are needed in every month.
