EXPERIENCES

After a brief safety talk, we take off from the old Ushuaia airport, to West direction to appreciate Beagle Channel and Mount Susana. Then we turn to the right heading East to enjoy a wonderful view of Ushuaia, the Andes mountain range, the Martial Glacier, the Cinco Hermanos mountains and the emblematic Mount Olivia. We will fly over the downtown area with its characteristic buildings such as the Presidio, the Government House and the local port. Returning to the heliport.

Departure from Puerto Madryn; after traveling 70 km through Patagonian steppe, we reach the southern end of the mouth of the Golfo Nuevo where Punta Ninfas lighthouse is located, a valuable reference for navigators entering this area. On the beaches that surround Punta Ninfas we can see breeding groups of elephants and seals. We then continue to El Pedral, an authentic Patagonian estancia built at the beginning of the 20th century. The materials and furniture were brought from Europe by boat and landed on the coasts of the estancia itself. Then we went to the Magellan penguin colony located on El Pedral seashore, a short distance from the house. A guided tour between their nests allows us to better know these curious animals. In summer we recommend a cap and sunglasses, as well as to carry a bottle of water. At noon, we have lunch in the estancia: grilled lamb with a variety of salads, dessert and coffee (includes drinks and wine). In the afternoon you can enjoy the pool and the pétanque court, as well as take walks around the property or have a tea/coffee before returning back our hotel.

Cape Froward - the southernmost point of the continental world - glaciers, humpback whales, Sei whales, southern dolphins, toninas overas, Magellanic penguins... are part of the natural wonders of this southern area of the Strait of Magellan and Tierra del Fuego. In one of the most remote and pristine places on the planet, this full-day trip will make us feel nature in its most natural state. Leaving very early from the offices, we will travel 50 km south of Punta Arenas by bus, and then embark and sail for around 10 hours. We will enjoy a unique landscape surrounded by mountains, glaciers and lenga and coihue forests. The marine life present in the area will never cease to surprise us with its proximity and abundance: sea lions, petrels, cormorants, southern dolphins, etc. They will make us feel that nature is felt and lived here!
