We took the double-decker tour to soak in the local culture and history, and it certainly delivered on the scenic views we were hoping for. The guide shared fascinating stories about the landmarks, particularly the old prison, which added depth to our experience. While we appreciated the well-planned route, we found that the time flew by too quickly—an extra half hour would have been ideal. Overall, it was a fun and engaging way to explore the city as a family, with plenty of opportunities for photos. Just be prepared for limited time at each stop, which might leave you wanting to linger a bit longer.

Exploring Ushuaia from the top deck of a double-decker bus offered us a fresh perspective on the city’s breathtaking scenery and rich history. The guides shared fascinating stories about landmarks like the famous Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse, making the experience both informative and enjoyable. Although we appreciated the variety of sights, we found ourselves wishing for a little more time at each stop to soak everything in. The views were stunning, especially when we reached the higher points of the route, but we felt a bit rushed during certain segments. Overall, this tour was a delightful way to explore the culture and scenic beauty of Ushuaia, with just a couple of minor pacing issues.
