I took a flight from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia, it claims to be the southern most city in the world. Puerto Williams Chile makes the same claim and it more south, visited there as well, Ushuaia has more going for it than Puerto Williams. Ushuaia is Beautiful city with snow caped hills on one side and ocean on the other.
Airport to Town Taxi - cost is about USD 10
Ushuaia is not budget friendly, plan accordingly. I was there overnight as the next afternoon I had a ship to catch to go to Antarctica.
Transportation - one can walk everywhere
Weather - dress warm, I was there in January which is there summer and needed a Jacket
San Martin Avenue is the main street with all kinds of eating places and shopping. One can also find tourist agencies selling tours to Antarctica.
One place I recommend for coffee and sandwiches is Tante Sara Cafe Bar. I also ate at 137 Pizza. Both are located on San Martin Avenue.
Tourist info office, you can get maps and all the info you need.
Along the Shore one finds all the cabin shops selling shipping and sailing tours along the Beagle Channel.
Happy Travels
