Essential Travel Itinerary: Argentina
  • 5 years ago
Stretching from the Tropic of Capricorn to the edge of the Antarctic. Finding enough time just to see a fraction of Argentina is an immense challenge. Buenos Aires is a huge endeavour in of itself, with its profoundly detailed architecture, diverse cuisine and exhilarating nightlife. It's also the spiritual home of the world renowned tango dance. Iguazu Falls, like Niagara Falls mark an international boundary. They are the largest waterfalls system in the world and stretch for 2 miles along the Brazilian border. Mar del Plata's beaches are the country's most popular, with huge crowds in the summer months and a vast array of water based activities on offer. The spectacular 'Route of the Seven Lakes' take you to the foothills of the Andes and showcase a natural scenery that's second to none. Glaciar Perito Moreno is one of the largest and most accessible in the world. It sits in the heart of the aptly named, 'Los Glaciares National Park'. Ushuaia is southernmost large settlement in the world. Passing through Chile to reach this chilly city of 75,000, you'll quickly fall in love with the opportunities to explore the wide open landscape, as well as the frequent presence of penguins.
