    I had Nico as my guide,...

    I had Nico as my guide, and I was the only one in my group. Nico set a suitable pace and was very knowledgeable about the area. I felt safe hiking with Nico and also learned about the surrounding area. Getting to the glacier was well worth the effort, and the getting to walk on the glacier was simply amazing. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this trip!

    Response from the operator: Thanks for the review Qize! and thanks for trusting in us for your holiday adventure. Hope to see you again in the future!

    Excellent local guide for a hike to an alpine glacier.

    Facu was an excellent guide for this beautiful hike to an alpine glacier. He was attentive to our pace, very knowledgeable about the local ecology, and had some local food suggestions that did not disappoint.

    Glacier hike

    Super cool trek - guide was top. Patient but not too slow, easy to talk with. Told me a lot about local birds. Great knowledge of flora/ fauna too. Hike itself was beautiful. Well worth the money.

    Response from the operator: Thanks for trusting on us and hope you can come back!

    Must see in Ushuaia!

    Amazing trek with Facundo who is an experienced and patient guide. We are not experienced hikers and Facundo made it a wonderful experience for us. Definitely recommend having the proper equipment and fitness level for this trek. If you are a novice or intermediate hiker, this will be an excellent experience that will be very challenging. For experienced hikers, it will be a much more enjoyable trip with a guide like Facundo.

    Great guide and hike

    Great guide, Facundo! Great hike. He suggested an earlier start to avoid rain, and we had great time at glacier. Good snacks and lunch. Highly recommended!

    Small Group Guided Trek Tour to Ojo del Albino Glacier: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ushuaia.

    How much does Small Group Guided Trek Tour to Ojo del Albino Glacier cost?

    +

    Prices start at $160 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ushuaia usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Small Group Guided Trek Tour to Ojo del Albino Glacier take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ushuaia is not rushed.

    Is Small Group Guided Trek Tour to Ojo del Albino Glacier worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 28 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ushuaia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Small Group Guided Trek Tour to Ojo del Albino Glacier?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Small Group Guided Trek Tour to Ojo del Albino Glacier suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Small Group Guided Trek Tour to Ojo del Albino Glacier?

    +

    Around 10 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ushuaia can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ushuaia and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Small Group Guided Trek Tour to Ojo del Albino Glacier start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ushuaia within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Ushuaia?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Ushuaia experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Vinciguerra Glacier Trekking and Premium Floe Lagoon, King Crab Route 4WD Off Road with lunch in Puerto Almanza, Tierra del Fuego National Park – Small Groups. Optional Train. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Ushuaia?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Ushuaia?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
