Private Tierra del Fuego National Park Tour

About This Experience

Booking this tour gets your party its own vehicle and guide for about five hours, with pickup and drop-off at your hotel in Ushuaia. On GetYourGuide it is priced per group, from $400 at one traveler, and the total changes with the size of your party; for one participant on 8 October 2026 it was $450. The tour averages 4.9 out of 5 from 57 reviews, and one reviewer describes a customized day for a private party of six.

Before the park entrance, the guide stops in the Pipo River valley, where inmates of Ushuaia's old penal colony cut timber for decades and hauled it out on a narrow-gauge railway. The End of the World Train station is close by, and if you want to ride, you can enter the park on the one-hour train trip while the guide drives around to meet you. Otherwise the car takes you straight into Tierra del Fuego National Park by road.

Inside the park the guide adjusts the route to your group. Walkers can be steered onto trails for extra views, while a sightseeing day links scenic stops without long hikes. Lapataia Bay, at the end of Ruta Nacional 3, is the farthest point, and the usual stops also include Roca Lake and Zaratiegui Bay. A coffee or tea break with biscuits is included, along with insurance. Guiding is in English or Spanish.

Neither the train nor the park entry is part of the price. Train tickets are optional: you buy them on the day, and the operator wants a message beforehand since the train can fill up; according to the operator, the station accepts cards, dollars, euros, pounds and pesos. The listing gives a rough dollar estimate for the park, but the official fee is ARS 40,000 for foreign visitors since 1 June 2026. Free cancellation runs to 24 hours ahead.

Good to Know & Caveats

• Every visitor needs a Tierra del Fuego National Park ticket: ARS 40,000 for foreign visitors since 1 June 2026 (Argentine residents pay less, and children aged 0 to 6 enter free). It can be bought online in advance from the national parks service.
• Message the operator in advance if you want to ride the End of the World Train, as it can be fully booked.
• 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.
• The GetYourGuide price is for the whole private group, and the total depends on how many people are in your party.
• Weather changes fast in Ushuaia and snow is common from June to September; warm, waterproof layers are needed in every month.
