We work with small groups of up to 25 passengers in a familiar and friendly environment with the company of professional Spanish and English speaking guides. The excursions are carried out with the “KAMS and“ TELIENKA ”yachts, twin boats of 15 meters in length, which due to their dimensions allow a maximum approach to the islands allowing preferential sightings. During our tour we visit Isla Alicia, Isla de Pájaros and Isla de Lobos, where we make very close sightings of the fauna of the Beagle Channel. We know the Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse built in 1919, a true emblem of the City of Ushuaia. At the end, we disembark at Bridges Island to go through a path of interpretation of flora and birds, telling them the history of the Yámanas aborigines. Here are the largest anthropogenic Yámanas shells in the region. It also has a panoramic point from where we can observe the magnificence of the Beagle Channel with the City of Ushuaia in the distance.

Half day and definitely worth it. Even without seeing the penguins (not the time of year) we saw a ton of birds and sea lions, the lighthouse was beautiful, and the quick trek was fun as well.

Nice trip on the channel. We saw lots of sea lions. Nice walk on one of the island. Good guide who spoke English. Great half day trip. Only coffee, no food

This was a great tour. As well as peaceful sailing through the Beagle Channel to see cormorants and sea lions, trekking on one of the tiny islands, and enjoying views of the Channel and Ushuaia, we learnt a lot about the surrounding geography of the area. Our guide was excellent, very friendly and informative, and keen to answer additional questions. We didn’t see any penguins at this time of year (November) - there was a possibility of seeing penguins, but this was not guaranteed - something to note if penguins are your priority! Overall, a lovely afternoon, highly recommended.

We enjoyed this afternoon activity with a guide who was full of information about the local environment and area. We saw sea lions, an elegant seal and many birds including turkey vultures - alas no penguins. The short walk on the island highlighted the different flora. Boat was a good size and we felt very comfortable on board.

This was an excellent trip. In fact one of the highlights of our three week visit to Patagonia. The guide was really good, very accessible and spoke excellent English. We saw loads of wildlife, sea lions, an elephant seal, penguins and albatrosses. The trip went around the famous lighthouse and the boat was piloted very skilfully to get close to the wildlife. We enjoyed the small walk on the island in the channel. Altogether a trip that is well worth taking if you’re in Ushuaia

Everything went according to the preliminary schedule. We saw many birds, sea lions and an elephant seal! Our guide Lu (sorry if I misspelled it!) was amazing - she was so passionate when telling us about the flora, fauna and geography of the place and it was obvious she loved what she does! On the downside, I think it's a bit expensive for what it is. I'm also disappointed we didn't get to see any penguins, but that's on me, since apparently that's a part of a different tour.

Was a very nice and chill tour! Great guide shared lots of infos about the fauna and flora around the beagle channel. The boat was in great shape. Just a bit pricey for what you get but still worth doing once.

The Beagle canal trip was fantastic as we hiked and learned about local plants including the unique type of moss that reminds me of marine coral The landscape nature with the Andes peaks covered with snow surrounding the Beagle canal is mesmerizing. Juan Pablo the guide was awesome teachings us about the marine elephant habits , the sea lions Gaviots , the different types cormorants and penguins Great value for money with nature at its best

The weather gods were not our friends for the Beagle Channel cruise, but we can still recommend the cruise with unqualified enthusiasm. There was plenty of room on the boat both inside and on the deck for our hearty crew of 14, hot coffee and tea and chocolate were in abundance, and our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and fluent in both English and Spanish about the animal life and landscape and history of the region. Our captain got us up close to several seal colonies and even our outside trek was a pleasure.
