Destination Highlight: City Trek with End of the World Prison Museum

Journey into the heart of Ushuaia, a remote city in the Patagonian Andes. Ushuaia is located at the foot of the Andes and is bordered by the Beagle Channel. The city remained undeveloped until the 20th century, due to its distance from other populated cities and its harsh living conditions. Attempts to populate the area included Anglican settlements and the establishment of a prison serving Argentina. The ultimate development of industry in the 70s and 80s led to growth. Stroll the downtown area, viewing Centenary Square and the Government House. Learn about Ushuaia's rich history at the End of the World Museum. Then, see the Saint Christopher Tugboat and shipwreck, view the old churches, and the "La Mission " neighborhood. Finally, enjoy views of the city and the ship from a scenic viewpoint.
