Argentina destinations:
Buenos Aires
One of the largest cities in the world, Buenos Aires is also the capital of the tango and football, the gaucho and the asados. In order to catch the spirit of Buenos Aires, walk along the streets in downtown to see its elegant shop windows, take a coffee in a sidewalk café, and visit the residential neighborhoods, where the old buildings alternate with the most modern constructions. This is a city with plenty to offer for all the tastes and tourist needs.
Iguazu Falls
Designated Natural Heritage of Humanity in 1986 by UNESCO, the Iguassu (Brazil)/Iguazu (Argentina) Falls are a spectacular sight. Shared by two countries, the falls are formed by 275 separate waterfalls, ranging in height from 40 meters to 100 meters and are surrounded by 225 thousand hectares of tropical forests with rare and endangered species of fauna and flora. Plenty of activities are available. The Falls can be visited all year long but extended rain is common in September and October.
Bariloche
Deep blue lakes, towering mountains, glaciers, climbing, boating, exploring, dining and just full relaxing in Bariloche, the urban center of the Argentine Lake District, make this an incomparable vacation destination - The scenery alone leaves most people breathless!.
Bariloche, the most breathtaking natural environment Argentina has to offer, it resembles European Alpine Resorts and is the base for exploring Nahuel Huapi National Park since it’s located in the southern coast of Nahuel Huapi Lake, only a 2-hour flight from Buenos Aires.
The Switzerland of South America, Bariloche, as it is called, offers a singular variety of hotels and first class tourist facilities. The typical constructions of stone and wood are interwoven with the most modern architecture, thus giving the city a very special touch. Moreover, the surrounding Lake District, where the provinces of Neuquen and Rio Negro kiss the Chilean Border, straddles three distinct climate zones and flaunts four full seasons of outdoor fun expeditions.
El Calafate - Lago Argentino
Known as the gateway to an impressive land of glaciers, El Calafate became an inescapable stopover to begin discovering the impressive sights of Southern Patagonia. Located on the southern shore of Lago Argentino, the town has the ideal tourist facilities surrounded by pristine natural beauty. El Calafate is the base for all main excursions to Los Glaciares National Park and its spectacular attractions like the breathtaking Perito Moreno Glacier (one of the most visited in the world), The Upsala Glacier (the largest glacier in South America), and the Fitz Roy mountain.
Mendoza
Mendoza is located 1037 km west of Buenos Aires, close to the Chilean border and the Andes mountain range. This city is made up of two parts, the old and the new. Only one colonial church, reminder of the old spectacular architecture, remains intact after the major earthquake in 1861. The "Barrio de las Ruinas" represents the remnants of what Mendoza used to be like. Mendoza is the exit and entry point for those interested in the highest mountain peak in South America, Aconcagua.
Ushuaia - Tierra del Fuego
Ushuaia is the capital of Tierra del Fuego, an island at the southernmost tip of Argentina, which has attracted adventurers, conquerors, pirates, and scientists. Tierra del Fuego has a unique landscape due to its combination of mountains, sea, glaciers, and forests, which can be reached on the Train to the End of the World. It has the Andes in the background, and the coast to the south, providing superb views of the bay, the peninsula, and Beagle Channel, where incredible wildlife such as birds, penguins, and whales can be seen.
The End of the World Museum exhibits remnants of the city and its primitive inhabitants.
Puerto Madryn - Peninsula Valdes
Puerto Madryn, colonized by the Welsh, offers the opportunity to enjoy a mix of colonial and sub-aquatic marvels for its proximity to Peninsula Valdes, one of Argentina's most important wildlife reserves. A Welsh castle built in the late 1800's is the center of the colonial and Welsh cultural attractions. With 70 meters of visibility, and several submarine parks, the fine reserve of Peninsula Valdes is ideal for underwater exploration, filming and photography. The coastline is inhabited by marine mammals, like sea lions and elephant seals (All year), Magellanic penguins (October to March), and many other seabirds (All year), but its biggest attraction is the southern right whale that feed, mate, give birth and nurse here between June and mid-December approximately.
Salta
Salta has a touch of elegance that reveals the sumptuous past that still lives in the large old houses and flowery patios. Here, the Spanish influence is best preserved. Colonial churches abound. Jujuy contains links to the Inca Empire as well as remnants of the colonial period. The Paso is an Andean pass that links Salta with Antofagasta. The area is dotted with old mining towns, natural thermal springs, and colonial villages where time seems to have been kept still since the late 1600's.
