    Frequently asked questions

    The Winter Valleys excursion in Ushuaia typically includes round-trip transportation from centrally located hotels, a bilingual guide (Spanish/English), entrance fees to winter resorts, and specific equipment for snow activities as per the program (e.g., snowshoes, dog sledding, snowmobiling, or tubing). It usually includes a regional afternoon snack or dinner at a mountain refuge. Personal thermal clothing, alcoholic beverages, tips, photographs, personal expenses, and additional clothing rentals are not usually included. Some activities may require supplements. We recommend checking the Tangol voucher for final inclusion/exclusion details, as these may vary depending on the season, availability, and the tour package purchased.

    Depending on the winter season in Patagonia, the Winter Valleys tour can operate as a half-day (approximately 5–6 hours) or full-day (8–9 hours) excursion. Morning departures are available, and in many cases, afternoon departures are also offered to enjoy the southern sunset and the refuge experience. Pick-up is usually from centrally located hotels in Ushuaia; if you are staying outside this area, a meeting point will be arranged. Schedules may be adjusted based on daylight hours, road conditions, and weather. During peak season (June to September), advance booking is recommended. Always confirm the exact time, waiting window, and meeting point on your voucher.

    To enjoy your excursion in the Winter Valleys, dress in layers: a thermal base layer, a warm mid-layer (fleece or softshell), and a waterproof and windproof outer layer. Add snow pants, waterproof boots with good traction, thermal socks, waterproof gloves, a hat, a neck warmer/buff, and goggles or sunglasses with UV protection. Bring sunscreen, lip balm, water, and your ID. The tour operator usually provides specific technical equipment (e.g., snowshoes, helmets, or balaclavas for snowmobiling) when the activity requires it. If you don't have suitable clothing, many rental shops in Ushuaia offer technical clothing packages for tourists.

    The Winter Valleys excursion is popular with families and travelers seeking nature tourism with moderate adventure. The difficulty level is low to intermediate, requiring no prior experience; activities are guided and include safety instructions. Some options (snowmobiles or dog sledding) may have age, height, or companion restrictions; they may also not be recommended for pregnant women or people with heart conditions, back problems, or reduced mobility. Young children typically participate in gentler activities or stay at the lodge with an adult. Please inform the operator of any medical conditions when booking and consult their fitness policies.

    Operations in Ushuaia depend on the weather and snow conditions. If conditions are unsafe, the operator may reschedule, offer alternative activities (such as trekking or scenic 4x4 tours), or cancel. Cancellation and refund policies vary: many allow free changes with 24-48 hours' notice and refunds if the provider cancels due to force majeure. We recommend booking well in advance, keeping a working contact phone number, and purchasing travel insurance. Always check your Tangol voucher for deadlines, no-show fees, and rescheduling options during the winter season.

    Magia de nieve en Ushuaia

    ¡Qué experiencia en los Valles Invernales de Ushuaia! Desde que me pasaron a buscar todo fluyó: guías súper atentos, buena onda y seguridad a full. Paisajes nevados de postal, caminatas suaves, trineo y tiempo para jugar en la nieve. El refugio es cálido, con rica comida casera y chocolate caliente que te devuelve el alma al cuerpo. La organización de Tangol fue clarísima, horarios cumplidos y equipos en buen estado. Ideal para familias, parejas o amigos. Volví con mil fotos y una sonrisa gigante. Recontra recomendable. Volvería sin dudar.

    Ushuaia Winter Valleys: Powder, Peace, Laughter, And Cocoa Moments

    Hands down my favorite day in Ushuaia. Tangol nailed it: smooth pickup, friendly guides who kept things fun and safe, and jaw-dropping valley views blanketed in snow. We played in the powder, did an easy snowshoe walk, slid around like kids, and warmed up in a cozy refuge with hot drinks. Perfect balance of adventure and chill. Wear layers and waterproof gloves. If you're in town in winter, don't skip this tour.

    Vales de Inverno: neve, aventura e serviço impecável mesmo

    Experiência incrível com a Tangol nos Vales de Inverno em Ushuaia! A equipe foi super atenciosa, pontual e explicou tudo com calma. Andei de moto de neve, fiz caminhada com raquetas e terminei num refúgio quentinho com chocolate quente e um jantar delicioso. As paisagens branquinhas são de tirar o fôlego. Dica de amigo: leve segunda pele, luvas extras e bateria reserva pro celular, porque o frio é pegado. Programa imperdível pra quem quer curtir neve com segurança e muita diversão.

    Mega Erlebnis in Ushuaia! Als deutschsprachiger Tangol-Kunde war ich total happy: Husky-Schlitten, Schneemobil durchs Wintertal, kurze Schneeschuh-Wanderung – alles top organisiert und sicher. Guide super herzlich, viel über Feuerland erzählt. Kleingruppe, heiße Schoki und Snacks im refugio. Tipp: mehrere Schichten anziehen, Kamera laden, und einfach genießen! Transfer pünktlich, Ausrüstung gut, Preis-Leistung stark. Absolut empfehlenswert für alle.

    Ushuaia enneigée: une aventure mémorable dans les vallées d'hiver avec Tangol

    Une journée magique dans les vallées d'hiver d'Ushuaia avec Tangol. Paysages de carte postale, neige immaculée et ambiance super conviviale. Les guides sont au top: pros, drôles et hyper attentionnés. Activités variées et bien rythmées, sans stress. Organisation nickel, matos fourni et pauses gourmandes bienvenues. J'ai adoré chaque minute. Pour tous niveaux. Conseil: habillez-vous en couches et gardez l'appareil prêt pour des photos inoubliables!
