- Train Journey to the END OF THE WORLD! Tierra Del Fuego National Park, Ushuaia
In this video we take the famous train journey to the end of the world (otherwise known as: Tierra Del Fin Del Mundo) into Tierra Del Fuego National Park in Ushuaia, the Southernmost city in the world!
The Southern Fuegian Railway is known as the End of the World train for being the Southernmost railway on Earth. The train journey to the end of the world leaves the beautiful station which feels like stepping back in time from the moment you arrive and buy your ticket from the office.
Climbing inside the vintage (and tiny) carriages was an experience in itself as we passed by other steam trains whilst hearing the narration of the prisoners that used to embark on the same train journey everyday. The scenery in Tierra Del Fuego National Park can be seen from the comfort of the slow and steady train which takes around an hour to arrive at the stop. Although we found it touristy we would definitely recommend doing it if you’re visiting Ushuaia as it is a unique experience. After getting off the train we decided to avoid the overpriced taxis and walk the 20 minutes down to the bay where we had lunch before going inside the End of the world post office. That’s right, there really is a tiny post office at the end of the world, also an experience with in itself. The friendly owner is a man who has been running the post office for over 30 years and as well as postcards and the usual post office things, if you bring your passport with you it’s possible to get an official “End of the World’ stamp inside complete with penguins!
The hiking inside the National park was so beautiful that we decided we had to come back another day to explore more, we loved the train experience but if it’s the hiking you’re interested in then it’s possible to take a bus from Ushuaia town that gets you into the park much quicker, it’s obviously not as scenic and much less of an experience than the train but for us it meant we had the whole day to hike through Tierra Del Fuego and after 12km of hiking we were picked up by the same bus and brought back to Ushuaia.

A British couple from just outside London, England. We got married in 2018 and decided instead of a honeymoon we’d travel the world together. We saved money and travel points, quit our jobs, rented our house out and boarded a one way flight. We started this TH-cam channel to share our experiences with friends, family and anyone who plans to travel to the places we’re visiting. We leave TKT tips/facts in our vlogs and blogs to give information that we wish we’d had before visiting. We hope you find our content fun & useful :)

Thanks so much for watching you lovely people!!😊👍🏼 Yesterday we celebrated four years of marriage and realised we’ve been doing this for over half our married life now, thank you for being here for the journey, we can’t wait to see where it takes us!
happy big 4 !
@@eddyengelman5125 Thank you 😊
Happy 4th! Today is our 5th year anniversary as well!
Always good to see the local dogs in the video rather than cats! , clearly my postcard from the end of the world has been lost in the post.
Keep up the excellent videos 😊👍🏼
Thought you’d be happy about that 🐶 although we keep wanting to adopt them all, there’s so many beautiful street dogs in the South of Argentina ☺️
What a cute little steam train! That looked like such a unique and beautiful trip, you guys. How fun! That national park looks really pretty. What a cool bucket list item to say that you've been to the end of the world! And now you have the passport stamps to prove it! Love how that guy took up the whole page 😂 His stamps were cute
It was really fun seeing the end of the world and the cute little post office. It's a must visit spot once you've made it all the way there to get some penguins in your passport!
Bienvenidos a Argentina espero que disfruten de los hermosos paisajes ! 🌷 ☺ 🌸🌸 🇦🇷
Gracias! ☺️
Love these old classic stream trains and it's incredible that they are so well persevered. Awesome scenic views as well! I'd say it's worth it despite being so touristy! Looks like a great experience!
It was quite cool, we were more interested in seeing the nature and hikes but the calm train journey was so relaxing and scenic it surprised us how much we liked it 🚂
Hola, I am very excited to see your videos in Argentina! I'm from Buenos Aires but I've lived in the UK for 7 years and it gives me great joy to see my beautiful country through your videos :) thanks a lot! there are many places to visit! If you have the opportunity to go to Bariloche (Neuquen) which is really beautiful, or Mendoza (many Malbec vineyards), or the Sierras de Córdoba, or the north of Argentina (Salta, Jujuy) they are all totally different landscapes. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. Enjoy your time there! :)
Thank you so much for such a lovely comment. We're glad to be sharing our time her with you. We had a huge battle to get transport to Bariloche from El Calafate but we made it after days of waiting (and a lot of money😬) worth it though, we'll have that video on in a few weeks when we finish our time in El Calafate. We are already blown away by the different landscapes we're seeing as we travel up through Argentina, it's incredible!
@@TideKnotTravellers Thanks for taking your time to reply :) you must be extremely busy going around different places. I follow all your videos on your trip through Argentina, and I shared them too, with my friends and family there :) . You've been in Palermo where I am from (near the Sans restaurant, :) ). I imagine that it must be costing you a lot of money to go from one place to another :(, many kms to travel and sometimes there are not all the desired means of transport. The landscapes are extremely diverse. Thanks a lot for the excellent work you are doing and for making me feel closer to there ,hoping to see your next adventure there, greeting from UK, haha :)
Awesome episode, stunning landscapes, cheers
Thanks again! 👍🏼

Amazing tour! So beautiful nature and places! Thanks for nice sharing! Have a wonderful week friends🌸👍
Thank you! You too!
Good morning from Philippines. I always enjoy your videos. Keep safe and God bless always 🙏👍🐟⛵😊
Thank you for sharing the beautiful VLOG ❤️
Thanks for watching! 😊
Love watching you two. I am coming to Argentina in November on a Solo trip. I was nervous but after watching you I feel much more relaxed. Thanks again. Cheers
Thank you so much. We’re glad to know that our videos help you to feel more relaxed about your visit, you’ll have a great time!
Your too good at this now the out takes are diminishing 👌👍🖐
🤣 we try!
Great vídeo!! ♥️♥️
Thank you!
Enjoyed your video. Our time spent in the Park and in Ushuaia was wonderful.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow! This is amazing! I enjoyed watching this wonderfull video. I love hiking too. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work. Have a nice day.
Thank you! You too!
Been waiting for this video 🤗 such an unforgettable and once in a lifetime experience! Loved seeing your experience at the post office 🥹🥰
And great that there weren’t too many people around 😅 perfect timing!
We were so happy with how the day turned out (minus the dirt track hike😅) the post office at the end of the world is such an experience too, the owner is so lovely!
What an amazing train journey! The views are just amazing from every corner! Glad you had your sandwiches from Marco Polo - on point naming- cafe lol I would pay to get my passport stamped for sure! How cute is that with the penguins!
Cannot go anywhere without finding the name Marco Polo used somewhere! 😂 it was our favourite place to eat in Ushuaia though and great coffee too! We love our end of world stamps, anytime we're waiting in an airport it makes us smile seeing the penguins in our passport, even made a super serious security guard at border control laugh the other day!
This seems like such a fun excursion. Even if things are a bit touristy, I still love checking them out (perhaps hence my name?? lol) but I still don't like big crowds 😂 I'd definitely want my passport stamped at the end of the world post office as a memento. The scenery in the national park is stunning! So many great scenic points.
😂 Yes sometimes the tourist route is the only way to experience something. Getting the passport stamped was so worth it, official end of the world penguins in our passports 😍
Hahaha, Everyone raves about the Johnston Canyon falls here and they are amazing however there were so many people lining up to have a look at the waterfall that it was not worth it so we totally understand what you're saying!! We would love to do this train journey one day!
😂 good to know we're not the only ones! The train journey was the real experience, the waterfall stop was an unnecessary stop added purely so they could sell you the pics they took on the way onto the train, touristy but worth it for the experience.
😍💖
Krikey, trying to keep the dust out of your eyes must have been a challenge on that dusty road. Nice scenery though. 👌
It was not the easiest to walk along! 😅
beautiful country 🇦🇷 🇨🇱
It sure is!
Nice video guys! KEep on travelling!
Thanks! 😃 you too!
I love these videos so much! Stunning landscapes and scenery! The only fly in the soup is seeing those poor people trusting that baseless political narrative by wearing those face diapers. I better focus on the beautiful, there's A LOT more of it! :)
sorry, but what beautiful is my country. i love you Argentina!
It is absolutely beautiful and we love it too! We cannot believe the variety in the landscape as we travel around 😍🤩
@@TideKnotTravellers Argentina, todos los países del mundo en un solo país.
It may take 42 min around trip from last train station to Correo del fin del mundo. (Post office)
I want to know if train will wait for customer or customer can take next train back to Ushuaia Station?
you have a wrong fact, the southernmost city in the world is Puerto Williams, since the year 2019, pass from a Town to a City, legally and constitutionally by the Chilean State, so you can fix that fact to not miss inform 👍.
From an Argentinian: there is not much funding for tourism, unfortunately, so we do what we can and as well try to keep it as wild as possible.
Hope that you had a great time anyways!
We had an incredible time, we knew the train would be touristy but you’re right the wildlife part has been left very wild and beautiful! We loved hiking the 12km best!
Ushuaia is the "end of Argentina" only: further south there is still a large territory: Puerto Williams, Cape Horn Archipelago and Diego Ramirez Islands, all of Chile. You should have filmed in the Chilean part of Tierra del Fuego: much more beautiful, fascinating and interesting than the Argentine part: there is the crazy geography with its thousands of archipelagos, islands, fjords and canals; its glaciers that flow into the sea, and the Darwin Mountain Range, with the highest mountains in all of Tierra del Fuego
I have one of those 501 series travel books, and I want to do this after reading about Lapataia Bay in one of the books.
Books like that are golden for finding tucked away little gems around the world to visit, hope you visit here. It’s beautiful!
@@TideKnotTravellers For fun, I have a list of pretty much all the 501 books I have. I reached 25 cities in the "Must-Visit Cities" book this year!
Hey guys, even though there were a lot of touristy experiences along the way....the day seemed pretty fun!
This trail doesn't seem very pedestrian friendly...as several cars and motorcycles fly by 😆 we would have walked along it as well... especially if it meant you lost all of the other visitors 🙌
Aww it was so cool to see the end of the world post office, you two really timed it right.
😂 I was literally eating dust from the cars and motorcycles, was worth it though!
Does the End of World Post Office accept Credit card payment? what was the cost to stamp the passport? Thanks.
Not sure if they do because we didn’t try but it was only a few dollars to get both of our passports stamped. We paid in cash because we used cash for everything in Argentina to save money.
jajaj that is not a steam train
Doesn't seem like the most welcoming place in the world, not that I expect that, it's more I don't like being treated as a financial unit to be exploited by the locals.
Be great if it were off the tourist trail. I couldn't think of anything worse than traveling all that way to such stunning beauty then being treated like cattle on a cattle truck on their way to the abattoir LOL.
Perhaps I should've gone there in my '20s when I won a selection trial for a community aid program there, but I didn't go because I was stupid. Seems they did alright without me at any rate.
I've always wanted to go there but after seeing this I'll pass.
The train journey is VERY touristy but the national park itself once you wander off from the crowds into nature is peaceful and beautiful. It is possible to visit without going anywhere near the train as we show at the end of the video we returned by mini bus a few days later and hiked for 12km by ourselves.
Beautiful😍
Thank you! 😊
Harry Potter train
It’s probably the coolest train we’ve boarded since leaving platform 9 & 3/4!
