We’ll meet in Ushuaia at 8.30 to transfer you to the base of the glacier. From there, we’ll ascend around 800 meters before reaching the top of the Martial Glacier. Once there, you will contemplate a really breathtaking view of Ushuaia and its surroundings. You will also have the chance to look upon the Beagle Channel and the Navarino Island.

What people are saying about Gabriel Ignacio

Maria

The tour – in September 2025 – was spectacular, thanks in large part to Gabriel, our guide on this unforgettable adventure! Calm, relaxed, very polite and patient, he guided us the whole time, explaining how to proceed in the snow, respecting our beginner pace – almost like old people, haha ​​– in this type of tour!! It was wonderful and we can only thank Gabriel so much!!

Gabriel was a great guide for our beautiful hike to Laguna Esmeralda. This was a fabulous experience to learn about the area around Ushuaia before our trip to Antarctica.

He is super nice individual with a lot of mountain guide experience. His love for adventuring in this beautiful place made for a wonderful day.
