Why you'll love this trip
Before you head off on your Antarctic expedition on board the Ocean Endeavour, take the chance to get to know Ushuaia and its surrounds – you’ll soon see it’s well worth the visit!
Venture into the rugged landscapes of Tierra del Fuego National Park on a guided day tour, trekking along a scenic coastal path and canoeing along the Lapataia and Ovando rivers.
Enjoy a lunch to remember in a heated dome tent on the banks of the Lapataia River, dining on dishes made with local ingredients and paired with Malbec wine.
Soak up a full free day in Ushuaia to explore at your own pace – maybe visit the museum or take a stroll down Avenida San Martin.
Make the most of your Antarctic adventure by tagging on an extra couple of days in Ushuaia to settle in and explore the gorgeous national park.

Is this trip right for you?
- On Short Breaks, you maintain a good level of independence and freedom, with the added bonus of having the details sorted out for you. You’ll have lots of free time and you won’t be accompanied by a Trip Leader. This means that all included activities and tours will be run by different local Intrepid partners, and these may operate independently from each other. The included activities and transfers will operate on a join-in basis, which means that you could have your Adventure all to yourself, or others may join you along the way. If you would prefer to travel in a group with a dedicated Trip Leader, just get in touch with your booking agent and they will take you through some alternatives.
- This itinerary has been designed for passengers travelling to Antarctica on board the Ocean Endeavour, embarking in Ushuaia. The trip concludes at your Ocean Endeavour hotel in time to join the group briefing for your voyage.
- This trip is operated by one of our local partners in Argentina and therefore you may be joined by a mixture of Intrepid-booked passengers and other travellers during activities.
- Information may be delivered in English and Spanish, depending on the requirements of the group.
- This trip includes trekking and canoeing. Please ensure you bring sturdy walking shoes and comfortable clothes. It’s best to wear layers at all times of the year in case conditions change during the day.
- To make the most of the trip, it's best if you have at least a moderate level of fitness.
