Increasing scheduling of South American cruise itineraries has generated a scurry for new shore excursions, one of the most unique an opportunity for golfers to play the world’s southernmost golf course in Ushuaia, Argentina, arguably the planet’s southernmost city.
Furlong Incoming, a major Argentina shore excursion operator, has introduced a golf tour which provides avid golfers with green fees and equipment to play Ushuaia’s 9-hole course, with two different tee layouts providing an 18-hole round. Cruise passengers who complete the round are presented with a certificate, according to Furlong’s Santiago Lovari.
During a recent call by Carnival Splendor, Allen Normey of Maple Ridge, BC–one of a dozen pax taking the tour–labeled the Ushuaia round the "highlight of his golfing experiences."
While golfers play the course, non-golfing spouses can book an excursion on the narrow gauge "End of the World" train with it’s station adjacent to the course.
