I took one of these vans to get to Martial Glacier (and return); the cost was 8 Argentinian pesos (less than 3 $).
Otra manera fácil de recorrer los alrededores de Ushuaia es el servicio de camionetas tipo van: en diversos puntos de la Avenida Maipú (la costanera) hay camionetas que llevan a los turistas a los principales sitios de interés (como el Parque Nacional, el glaciar Martial o los lagos); tienen un horario prefijado y el servicio no es caro; claro está, no llevan guía.
Tomé una de estas camionetas para ir al glaciar Martial; el costo de ida y vuelta fue de 8 pesos argentinos (algo menos de 3 dólares). Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 Walking by andal13
La mejor (y más barata) manera de conocer una ciudad es caminar por sus calles; algunas de las calles de Ushuaia son realmente empinadas, así que pónganse sus zapatos más cómodos, respiren hooooondo y comiencen a caminar! Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 Waiting room at Ushuaia
Airport by andal13
The Ushuaia International Airport ("Malvinas Argentinas") is a modern and comfortable building, situated 4 km away the city, in the middle of a beautiful landscape.
La mejor forma de llegar a Ushuaia es por avión (recuerden que Ushuaia está situada en una isla); Aerolíneas Argentinas, LAPA, LADE, TAPSA, Southern Winds y LAN Chile tienen vuelos regulares.
El Aeropuerto Internacional de Ushuaia "Malvinas Argentinas") es un edificio moderno y confortable, situado a 4 km de la ciudad, en medio de un hermoso paisaje. Leave a Comment

There is a small airport in Ushuaia and you will find it at the opposite side of the bay, when you arrive by cruiseship. In principal the airport is in walking-distance from the town, maybe 15 minutes to walk or 3 minutes by taxi. When you enlarge my main picture, that I took from the place where our cruiseship was docked you will see the halls of the airport and even a small airplane across the bay.
Ushuaia is also a great place for a local flight on a sunny day, use the link below for reservations and infos about flying-excursions in the area of Beagle-Channel, Cape Horn etc.
This web-page seems to have an english-version as well, but at the moment it is not in function !

"The train at the end of the world" is the southern-most train in the whole world and it was constructed between 1902 and 1909 as a train used by the prisoners to transport the wood of the felled trees to the town of Ushuaia. The bigest part of the rail-track does not exist any more, just a small museum-train uses a part of the original track of the former prisoner-train, and it uses locomotives and also wagons that were never used by the prisoners. The locomotive on my main picture was built in 1938 in Germany.
You will find this museum-train in a distance of about 10 km from Ushuaia and you will go through a part of the National Park, you will pass by the "cemetery of the trees" and go to Macarena Waterfalls, where a short stop of 10-15 minutes will give you enough time to step up to the waterfalls.

 Tourist Port by andal13
Hay un puerto turístico en Ushuaia; desde allí, parten los barcos que navegan el canal de Beagle y visitan las islas cercanas (de Los Pájaros, de los Lobos, Les Eclaireurs). Leave a Comment Theme: Ship/BoatOther Contact: Maipú Av. & Belgrano St.

The Catamaran Ana B was the ship that took us along the Beagle Channel to the islands of seals, sea-wolfs, penguins and to the "lighthouse at the end of the world".
This catamaran has a small platform going around the ship (see my 3rd picture), that is perfect in order to take pics of birds and seals, BUT when going very fast you will get wet there.
there is a large salon with panorama-windows (my 2nd pic) they have a small bar there and serve coffee also at your tables . There is also another platform on top of the ship (see my 4th picture!) Leave a Comment Theme: Ship/Boat

I hired the services of "Tiempo Libre", and everything was OK: the punctuality, the vehicles and the guides.
Ushuaia tiene mucho que ofrecer, dentro y fuera de la ciudad; creo que la forma más cómoda de conocer determinados sitios es contratar los servicios de una agencia de viajes: ellos pueden recogerte en el aeropuerto y llevarte a tu hotel (y viceversa) o hacer paseos guiados a los principales sitios de interés.
Yo utilicé los servicios de "Tiempo Libre", y todo estuvo muy bien: la puntualidad, los vehículos y los guías. Leave a Comment Theme: BusPhone: 43 13 74Other Contact: 25 de Mayo 260 - Dto. 2
