Welcome to the end of the world! Hi everyone. I am an experienced professional tour guide in Ushuaia. I have been guiding as a full time job for more than 15 years since I graduated from University and I moved to live here. It is always a pleasure to lead travelers in discovering Tierra del Fuego with its history and natural beauty. I spend most of my time outdoors. I'm an active birder, hiker, kayaker and wildlife photographer. I also enjoy my days off exploring new destinations around Tierra del fuego as well as southern Patagonia. After guiding for more than 15 years for all kinds of visitors, I can feel confident that the job I do as a tour guide permanently heightens my own spirit and, I hope, the spirits of those who accompany me. I invite you to come, discover and enjoy one of the most pristine and beautiful places on the planet. I drive a van Hyundai H1 7 passengers for small groups. For larger groups I can hire other vehicules. If you would like to know more about me and this wonderful place just contact me; every message will be responded as soon as possible. I look forward to welcoming you in Ushuaia soon.

We visited Ushuaia as a cruise ship port. We hired Gaston to take us to Tierra Del Fuego. We are a group of 9 ranging in age from 16 to 87. Gaston and our driver Fernando were terrific. They met us as expected in a large van which was very comfortable for our group of 9. We saw scenery and birds (some of our group are avid bird watchers), and Gaston accommodated everyone easily. His English is terrific and his bird knowledge is also wonderful. He met and exceeded all of our expectations. If we ever find ourselves in Ushuaia again, we would definitely look for Gaston!

We had an excellent time with Gaston! Since we had covered a lot of Tierra del Fuego NP the previous day, Gaston took us to several locations around Ushuaia to cover some of the species we had missed the previous day! It was fairly windy, but he took us to areas that were protected from the wind, which was great! He was very flexible during the day, as conditions changed. He was very knowledgeable about the birds of the area! His English is excellent. We had a great time!

I loved this birding tour. Gaston was a great guide and was able to find many birds that I really wanted to see. We spent time with each bird, and he had a good spotting scope to view the birds and I was also able to photograph them. Most importantly, he was very respectful of the birds and their habitat. I can tell that he really cares about nature and the ecology of the area. Thank you Gaston!

Gaston took us on a birding tour in Tierra del Fuego National Park, with an emphasis on photography. He customized our visit to ensure that we saw the highlights of the park, and explored areas with unique wildlife. Gaston is deeply familiar with the park, knows the park staff, and provided a friendly and personalized experience. He gave us other ideas for our time in Ushuaia, and tips about our upcoming cruise. His English is perfect, and Gaston is highly recommended for your visit to this area.

This is our second time in Ushuaia and we have toured with him both times. Gaston’s ability to see, hear, and identify birds is amazing. He took us to several places and was able to find many of the birds we were hoping for including the Magellanic Woodpecker and the Pygmy Owl. We look forward to our next trip to Ushuaia and birding with him again.
