Maritime Museum & Mountain Drive

Your spirit of adventure will reach new heights on this leisurely half-day excursion. Explore the rugged natural beauty of Tierra del Fuego on a scenic drive for views of Lago Escondido: "Hidden Lake." The panoramic scenery will keep you on the edge of your seat as one breathtaking view after another glides past your motorcoach window. Begin at sea level and sightsee through a succession of river valleys as your experienced guide adds fascinating information on the region´s history and culture. Grab your camera for dramatic shots from Garibaldi Pass, the highest point in the road in this section of the Andes and then enjoy a stop for drinks and finger sandwiches at Las Cotorras refuge which is located in the island´s winter sports area. The return drive to Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world and the capital of Tierra del Fuego, is just as spectacular. In Ushuaia explore the Museo Maritimo & Old Prison Museum including a treasure trove of models and exhibits covering Antarctic discovery.
