“The experience was nice. The train is super slow! The guide was great. The only thing I wanted was more time at the stops. We had like 15 or 20 mins and I didn’t feel it was enough to absorb the beauty. It felt rushed. The train is give or take. It was hard to hear the info out of my ear phones. If you like nature, skip the train, rent a car, and do the hikes instead.”

“Guide was waiting when we disembarked the ship. Enjoyed Tierra del Fuego National Park. The train is overpriced, over hyped and disappointing. We booked as was sold as 8am start - 5 hr tour. Night before departure had wattsapp to say 10am departure - which would have been fine if the tour had been 5 hrs. However, we got to the station at 2pm and had to wait til 3.30pm for the train. It was a mad dash with driver speeding to get us back to the ship only 10mins before the ship departed. It was really stressful for all 16 of us on the bus and spoiled the day”
