We had a superb day with Gaston birding in the Tierra del Fuego NP. He picked us up on time from our hotel and drove us to some terrific spots in the park, away from the crowds, where he was able to show us some excellent birds including some endemics. Very pleasant company, excellent English language. Not a cheap day, but worth every cent and highly recommended.

Gaston met us from the ship at Ushaia. We had a very interesting tour of the town, Tierra del Fuego and Ensenada. He was friendly, informative and helpful. We enjoyed our morning very much and would recommend him as a guide.

Gaston was waiting for us once we were able to disembark the MS Veendam, unfortunately 1/2 hour late. Gaston was so knowledgeable re the wildlife and the area of the National Park, it was an extremely enjoyable tour. Wish we could have had more time to go further afield. Thank you for your organisation, would certainly use Tours by Locals again and would recommend Gaston as a guide. Kind regards, Victoria Wilson, England

My partner and I spent yesterday with Gaston, and found him to be informative, personable, and ready to tailor the tour to our preferences. We chose to spend most of the day in the national park, where he was able to find things to delight us, including a tree full of parakeets and two varieties of ground orchid, along with other bird and plant species. We recommend him highly.

very polite, well mannered in addition to being very knowledgeable. His English was excellent and his vehicle was very clean and comfortable. This was the most expensive of all of our tours. Can anything be done to improve the cost. The cost of admission to Tierra del Fuego Park was costly ($21US pp) - an additional cost.

Gaston knows the area and was a good tour guide. I guess the only criticism would be to help his clients plan more effectively. He should ask his clients what they want to do, then put down the options then execute! Great tour overall
