Ushuaia Guest Houses - Reviews and Rates

i just got back from a week in Ushuiah, which is the southermost city in the world at the very tip of Argentina. We were actually on the tectonic plates that technically made us in Antartica... so crazy! It was pretty cold and windy the whole time, but it was the most incredible trip IŽve ever taken!!! It was with my entire program, all 60 of u...

WEŽRE AT THE END OF THE WORLD!!!!!!! well, after several long bus rides, weŽve made it, the end of the world. ushuaia is the southernmost city in the world (there are a few places, such as puerto williams that are a little further south, but those are settlements or stations, so they donŽt count). we are now 10914km (6782miles) from chicago, 111...

Ok, I lied in my last entry. I'm sorry. But New Year's Eve was spent at Deception Island not the in the Weddell Sea. The morning was spent at Half Moon Island before we moved over to good old Whaler's Bay where I dug my obligatory hole. Obviously that night beers were drunk, stories were told and hilarity ensued. We don't really need to go into ...

So I am quite exhausted today, so no promises that this will be a good entry. Hopefully IŽll get inspired as I type. Today was a very busy day, and also a very cold day. We started out at 9 30 this morning to head down for our boat ride through the beagle channel. We met our favorite friend Sebastien who helped us out yesterday to begin an exped...

We were in FIN DEL MUNDO!!! that means - End of The World!!! Ushauia is really a small but beautiful place. We slept there at ViolettaŽs - its the home of an old and very nice seniora. The day we got there it was her nephew (I think...) birthday so the seniora and her husband invited all the hostel to a big Asado dinner for free. I think they b...

Hola! We are in the southern most city in the world, Ushuaia, Argentina. End of the world theme is everywhere. Being the tacky tourists that we are, we had our passports stamped with the official stamp to prove we were here! We are spending 3 days here then off to Buenos Aires. On Sunday we took a trip to Tierra del Fuego national park for a hik...

Ushuaia is a pretty darn convenient base for some excellent hiking. About 10 km from town is Tierra del Fuego National Park, which is greatly under-hyped. The place is touted for its peat bogs and the chance to see beavers up close and personal (the beavers were introduced here at some point and now outnumber the people in Ushuaia, as there are ...

Noch muede von der langen Nacht im "Club Britanico", in dem - nach Eigeneinschaetzungen - 1,5 Millionen Schaftkoepfe vereinigt gewesen waren, fiel die Konzentration auf die eintoenige patagonische Landschaft schwer. Ich beging zudem den Fehler, mit dem Nachzaehlen der Schafe zu beginnen. Irgendwo zwischen 109 und 111 traeumte ich dann bereits vo...
