Argentina
is blessed with spectacular terrain – ranging from some of the world’s
tallest mountains, crystalline lakes and colossal glaciers to
expansive, fertile Pampas, subtropical jungles, impressive waterfalls,
and quaint colonial towns.
Buenos Aires: The Paris
of South America. European in appearance, Buenos Aires can keep
visitors busy indefinitely. Stroll its tree-lined streets that are
full of marble neoclassical façade buildings. A full or half day tour
to the northern riverside district of Tigre with its colonial mansions
and the Parana River Delta are pleasant additions to a Buenos Aires
program. For an escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, we
recommend a day trip to one of the working estancias located a few
hours from the city. Here visitors can experience this unique gaucho
culture including a typical BBQ. A visit to Buenos Aires would not be
complete without attending an evening tango show.
Iguazu Falls:
The waterfall system at Iguazu consists of approx. 270 falls along 2.7
km of the Iguazu River. Our clients can stay on either the Argentina
or Brazil side of the falls. A guided tour of the park would include a
hike along the walkways or an approach of the falls by a zodiac from
below.
North: Arriving in the northwestern city of Salta,
you are greeted with the sight of Spanish colonial architecture
surrounded by spectacular scenery. Day trips outside the city take you
to the old Spanish colonial town of Cachi, the Humahuaca Gorge, the
Seven Colour Hill in Purmamarca, or the wineries of Cafayate.
Mendoza: Mendoza boasts
a warm spring-like climate that helps to make it the nation’s leader in
wine production. Visitors can wander the old city before heading
outside of the city to visit a few of the numerous wineries that line
the wine-route.
Lake District: Bariloche is
a popular resort town that offers golf, horseback riding and
bicycling. Day trips to Victoria Island to see large Arrayanes trees
or Mount Tronador, an extinct Volcano in Nahuel Huapi National Park are
two excellent excursions.
South: This enormous region
features a glacier-dotted mountainous interior and unique coastal
wildlife. At the Valdes Peninsula, see large sea elephants, sealion
rookeries and whales in September and November. Outside of Calafate, we
find the most famous glacier in South America, the impressive Perito Moreno. Further south at Ushuaia is where one must fly to commence a cruise to Antarctica or visit the Tierra del Fuego National Park.
