The experience
Discover Ushuaia’s most iconic sights on a tour designed for cruise passengers and tailored to your time in port. We meet you at the port and head towards the upper part of the city, along the road to Martial Glacier, for panoramic views of Ushuaia, the Beagle Channel and the mountains of the Chilean islands beyond.
We visit La Misión neighbourhood, an area connected to the Anglican Mission and the city’s early history. We also explore the surroundings of Bahía Encerrada, where coastal scenery and birdlife reveal a different side of the capital of Tierra del Fuego.
We continue along the waterfront, passing Plaza Malvinas and the End of the World Museum, and stop at the Ushuaia sign for a classic holiday photograph. We then follow San Martín Avenue, lined with shops and historic houses, and view the exterior of the Maritime and Prison Museum, whose history is closely linked to the city’s development.
At the end of the tour, we return you to the port in time to board your ship. The order of visits may vary depending on your cruise schedule and conditions on the day. Museum admission is not part of the itinerary.
