Argentina Travel: Travel Highlights and Must-see Destinations
Argentina Travel: Sights and Sounds
The Gaucho cowboys and the romance of Evita may spring to mind when planning an Argentina Travel holiday; however the country has a great deal more to offer – rich in distinction, cultural attractions and natural wonders from inspiring mountain peaks to Pampean plains to tropical jungles.
Enjoy the sights and sounds of the “Paris of the Americas“, aka Buenos Aires, a cosmopolitan and unique city with a mix of colonial architecture and European influences. You’ll find that Buenos Aires offers many attractions that include the Plaza de Mayo, a fashionable Recoleta with its sidewalk cafes and exclusive shops, and the colourful pedestrian street of El Caminito in La Boca.
Your evenings can be filled with a Tango show, a ballet or opera performance at the Colon Theatre, or simply people watching.
Argentina Travel: Iguazu Falls
A must-see destination is the Iguazu Falls. Located in the far north-east, wider than Victoria Falls, higher than Niagara, and more beautiful than any picture can capture, this experience will leave you breathless.
A scenic route, on the Argentine side, is provided by a nature walk or by boat to the cavernous Devil’s Throat.
Also visit the north-western provinces of Salta and Jujuy which offer startling natural beauty, a colonial history, and the remaining ruins of the Incan empire. (Talk to us about an Inca Tour package)
Argentina Travel: Bariloche
This charming Swiss-style town is set amongst majestic mountains and lakes, from where you can take the spectacular Lakes Crossing through the Argentine and Chilean National Park to Puerto Montt or Puerto Varas in Chile.
At the tip of the continent is Ushuaia, from where you can take a cruise to the Antarctic; Tierra del Fuego and Los Glaciers National Parks and Perito Moreno Glacier – one of the must-sees of Argentina, and accessible from El Calafate.
Argentina Travel: When to go
The climate ranges from hot and humid in the north to cold and rainy in the south. A visit in any season can be rewarding, but the south is best visited Nov – Feb, and the north in winter when there is less heat and humidity.
