Arrive in the world’s southernmost city, Ushuaia, a lively Patagonian hub nestled between snow-capped peaks and the Beagle Channel. Spend time discovering the town’s charm or venturing into Tierra del Fuego’s wild terrain. In the afternoon, board your expedition vessel and complete the safety drill. As evening falls, set sail through the historic Beagle Channel, once charted by Darwin, where whales and dolphins often surface. The adventure begins as the ship heads toward the Drake Passage.
