Worth agreeing on before you meet

Patagonian Environment

Tierra del Fuego is one of the most pristine ecosystems on Earth. Stay on marked trails in the national park, do not feed wildlife, and pack out all waste. The introduced beaver population is already causing irreversible damage to native lenga beech forests, so do not romanticise it.

Wildlife Viewing Distance

Magellanic penguins at Harberton allow remarkably close approach, as they are genuinely unafraid of humans. Guides set minimum distances; respect them. Touching or blocking penguins' path to the sea causes real stress to breeding birds.

Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the Ushuaia travel guide.
