Reviews

Reservé el trekking mientras estaba en Ushuaia por trabajo, y la atención de Best Patagonia Tours fue clara desde el primer mensaje. Me explicaron por WhatsApp qué llevar, ajustaron la salida porque mi vuelo llegaba temprano y respondieron rápido una duda sobre el calzado. El guía conocía bien el sendero; además, el almuerzo en la estancia fue abundante. Por el precio, la logística, el paisaje y la atención, la relación calidad-precio me pareció excelente.

Senderos, buena organización y calidez rumbo a Estancia Túnel

I booked this hike as a solo backpacker during an anniversary trip, and the whole day felt easy from the start. The driver arrived at my Ushuaia hotel at 8:02, exactly within the promised pickup window, and sent a quick WhatsApp message beforehand. The minibus was clean, warm, and had surprisingly comfortable seats, with enough room for my daypack; the USB port beside me was a nice touch. Check-in, transfers, and the trail briefing were handled smoothly, without waiting around. I especially appreciated the calm return timing after Estancia Túnel—no pressure to rush. A well-organized outing with genuinely thoughtful logistics.

Punctual planning and a comfortable ride to Estancia Túnel

Como eu estava em Ushuaia a trabalho, encaixei essa escapada no fim de semana e foi uma ótima escolha. O transfer chegou às 8h em ponto, e o guia explicou tudo sem correria. Além do trekking até o túnel, tivemos parada no mirante, caminhada pela floresta e tempo para um lanche com vista absurda. Até bota extra estava disponível — salvou meu tênis de executivo!

Do escritório ao túnel: trekking pontual, mirantes, floresta e paisagens que fizeram Ushuaia valer o desvio

Wir waren mit unseren Familien als Freundesgruppe während der Nebensaison auf dem Trekking zur Estancia Túnel – und der Ausflug war eines der Highlights. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt wirklich: gute Organisation, kleiner Gruppenumfang und eine beeindruckende Küstenlandschaft für einen fairen Betrag. Bei der Buchung antwortete Sofía noch am selben Abend auf Deutsch und wies uns sogar auf die geänderte Abholzeit wegen der Gezeiten hin. Vor Ort war alles entspannt, der Guide aufmerksam und das Tempo angenehm. Die Wanderung ist abwechslungsreich, aber nicht zu technisch. Würden wir wieder buchen.

Küstenwanderung mit perfekter Organisation

Nous étions avec nos deux enfants et tout s’est déroulé sans stress. Le minibus était vraiment confortable, avec assez de place pour les sacs et des sièges rehausseurs déjà installés. Le chauffeur est arrivé à 8 h 02 devant notre logement, puis l’organisation a été très fluide jusqu’au départ du trekking. Une belle journée autour d’Ushuaia !

Une sortie en famille bien réglée, confortable et ponctuelle
