Fun Full Day Filled with Variety of Experiences. - Lots of fun. You're a little limited on the intensity of the hike based upon the capabilities of your fellow trekkers. Ages in our group ranged from 20s to 60s. No one was left behind. And the views still made the hike worthwhile. The lunch was quite good and having a few glasses of wine after the hike was a nice reward. The highlight of the day was rafting the Beagle Channel. It actually started raining during our paddling and didn't slow us down. Saw some seals in the water with us while we were out there too. They did a good job of matching up physical capabilities so everyone was able to participate without worrying about carrying too much of the burden. Pick up a the hotel was on time and they even called the hotel the night before to reconfirm. Booking directly through Canal via whatsapp was easy and cheaper.

An outing with an end-of-the-world atmosphere - Easy "discovery" hike and canoning outing with an "end of the world" atmosphere in the natural park a stone's throw from Ushuaia. A professional and friendly guide giving relevant explanations without overdoing it. Very pleasant lunch break in a “yurt”. Perfectly completes a canal cruise.

A great day out - An excellent, well organised day out. Sonia was a great guide, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The canoeing was also well organised by Maori and the views around the lake were superb. Lunch in the dome was enjoyable and the days activities helped us to socialise as a group.

Unforgettable - One of the best excursions we did in Ushuaia. Frasco, Tomás (El Chino) and their driver (Pato) have been very attentive and kind. A great level of professionals and media that have allowed us an unforgettable experience. I would do it again without a doubt. Congratulations on the great team.

Taking in Tierra del Fuego National Park on land and sea - We had a wonderful time canoeing and hiking at Tierra del Fuego National Park! Neither the hike nor the canoeing was very difficult, so it was nice to be able to take in all the scenery! The guides made getting to and around the park seamless, and a nice hot lunch in the middle was a pleasant treat! Would highly recommend!

Great Introduction to Tierra del Fuego - Ana was a fantastic guide and gave us a great introduction to the history, plants, and animals/birds of the area! There's a stop for tea/coffee, and lunch is very good complete with wine. The trail is only strenuous a bit at the very end before lunch. I only wish that the river was a bit higher and the wind less strong as our "canoe" got stuck on rocks several times, and our canoe team needed to work together to get the eight of us free!

Great active day out - Very pleasant and easy 3.5h trek through a forest in the national park followed by an ok lunch and good canoeing. No paddling experience necessary, waterproof pants and boots provided, enjoyable but quite windy on the water. Daniel did a good job as a guide and Mauri made sure we’re safe on the water. You also make it to the end of the RN3, last part of Panamericana highway stretching all the way from Alaska, what’s not to like about that?!

IT HAS POTENTIAL, BUT... - I want to start this by saying that Ushuaia is a dream. No matter where you look at it, it's really beautiful. That said, coming from so far away it is logical that one wants to admire the landscape and photograph everything you are seeing and on this tour you cannot. Really, if there is something that bothers me about the tours, it is that they bring you running and do not respect the pace of the group. They went through us well, and although the guide was not the most courageous in the world, he gave us information throughout the journey. When we arrived at the boats, Pablo and his partner (I don't remember his name) were super nice to us and we were very happy that they were our guides from now on, but no, they only gave us the equipment and one of them left with us while the other boat was guided by a tourist (I don't think it's a very good idea or fair for the other half of the group that, having paid for a tour, one of us is their guide). The food was delicious and everyone there (Pablo again) was super friendly and attentive to us. The main problem was the walk. We were approximately 15 people and the guide (the same one from the truck, I don't remember the name) only gave explanations to those who were at the front, completely ignoring those of us who were further back (they are super narrow trails, there is no way to go in single file) and when he did wait for us he gave 3 hours of information in English and at least half of what he had explained in Spanish. There was a girl with a little boy of about 12 years old and she had to translate everything for him because the guide didn't mind speaking in Spanish being in Argentina(?¿). I understand that everything takes time, but you couldn't really take a photo because you were already too far ahead of yourself. At one point even my friend was worried about me because I was no longer with the group. It's a shame because looking back I didn't really enjoy this tour despite how much we paid and it could have been a great experience with those landscapes, drinking tea by the lake and the explanations I could have heard IF ONLY DON'T GO RUNNING. He even told us that the minimum he had done on that walk was two hours and forty and we really felt that he wanted to break his record. Anyway, Tierra del Fuego, a dream. This tour? It could improve a lot. I hate being treated like that and even more so if they promote it like they are different from all the other tours ever.
