National Park Tour for Cruise Passengers, Train Extra

About This Experience

The guide meets you near Ushuaia's Tourist Port and the group travels by minibus to Tierra del Fuego National Park. The first stop is the End of the World Train station, where travellers who have bought a train ride board for about an hour along the last 7 km of the old prison railway.

Those who skip the train take a guided walk with time for photos, then the group reunites and continues through the park's lenga and ñire forest together.

At Lapataia Bay there is time to photograph the sign at the end of the Pan-American Highway. The tour then stops at Laguna Verde, with views toward Condor Hill and the Chilean border, Lake Roca, and Zaratiegui Cove, where the End of the World Post Office is seen from outside. The minibus returns to central Ushuaia in time for your ship.

End of the World Train tickets are not included in the price, and neither is the national park entry fee (ARS 40,000 for foreign visitors since 1 June 2026). Both are paid separately.

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.
• End of the World Train tickets are not part of this tour's price, and one traveller reports receiving a payment link for the train the day before.
• 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 End of the World Post Office at Ensenada Zaratiegui is often closed, so don't count on going inside.
• Keep your ship's all-aboard time in mind; one traveller suggests reminding the guide of it.
• Weather changes fast in Ushuaia and snow is common from June to September; warm, waterproof layers are needed in every month.
