    Included in the Tour

    The leaning lighthouse and the Desdemona

    The San Pablo Lighthouse has been leaning for decades due to the wind and Patagonian erosion—a sight unlike any other lighthouse in the world. Just meters away, the hull of the stranded Desdémona completes this unique scene.

    Pristine landscape at the tip of Tierra del Fuego

    The journey to Cabo San Pablo takes you through coastline, forest, and the Fuegian steppe for 12 hours. The remoteness of the place is part of the experience—few tourists make it this far.

    Lunch at Estancia Pirinaica

    Lunch at the ranch concludes the tour with fresh sea bass and Patagonian cuisine. The rural setting, steeped in nearly a century of history, adds a cultural dimension that perfectly rounds out the day.

Which one suits you best?

If you're looking for maritime history, ranches, and the stranded ship Desdemona → Cape San Pablo This is the option. The longest tour in Ushuaia: 12 hours along the Estancia Route to Tolhuin, breakfast at Estancia Pirinaica, the leaning San Pablo Lighthouse, seafood lunch at Casa del Pescador, and a visit to the Desdémona shipwreck on the Atlantic coast.
If you prefer fresh king crab plus penguins in a 4x4 → I chose Penguin colony + King crab. 10 hours with a gourmet king crab lunch in Puerto Almanza and a boat trip to Isla Martillo for a walk among penguins. Shorter option available, but with wildlife included.
If you're looking for king crab and the southernmost fishing village without penguins → I chose Port Almanza. 8 hours with country breakfast and 3-course lunch featuring king crab overlooking the Beagle Channel. The most compact version of the gastronomic route.
If you prefer mountain nature and lakes in a 4x4 → I chose Lagos Off Road. 8 hours through the Garibaldi Pass and Lake Fagnano with a Patagonian lunch at a forest refuge. No maritime history, focus on Andean landscapes.
