Argentina Culture Trips

Would thoroughly recommend this trip if you are looking for spectacular scenery. Photos really do not do it justice but the mountains, forests, lakes, glaciers, waterfalls and even the clouds are breathtaking. The trip starts in the city of Buenos Aires which is a mix of old and new and would suggest adding a day or two to the trip to see more of it as we did. Our trip was in their autumn, the last trip of the year and the autumn colours in the national parks were beautiful. We were lucky with the weather and only one of the hikes was cut short because of heavy rain and no view. The additional trips are well worth taking. We did the tango show in Buenos Aires, then Perito Moreno glacier boat trip and the boat trip in the Beagle Channel in Ushuaia although it was disappointing that we were not told in advance of our trip that the penguins had already migrated. We did still see sea lions and a whale sighting was a bonus but not guaranteed. Our tour leader, Lara, was superb as were the guides who joined us on each of the hikes.

Great trip with Andrés. Other than Mendoza & Buenos Aires we saw practically no foreign tourists. Great wineries, amazing scenery, some bumpy roads. Some places we arrived late & left early after staying in hotels outside the centre so never really saw small town Argentina other than for rest stops. Salta looked an interesting city but only had a short walk in centre, following day was a long day out of town and we left early the following day. Salta deserves a full free day.

So many different types of experiences that it’s impossible to compare which is the favorite. The camaraderie of the group? The wine tastings? Ranches, farms, riding a horse? Big city sights? The moving dictatorship remembrance sites in Chile and Argentina? But I will say that Iguazú falls were spectacular!

Thank you to Diego for going above and beyond guiding us through Argentina and Brazil so informatively, attentively and with a great sense of humour throughout the tour. An excellent trip combining the highlights of these two countries - l would recommend the boat trip at lguazu Falls. llha Grande was a tropical paradise island.worth visiting. Only downside is that l would have preferred 2 nights at the eco lodge La Cantera hotel as it was such a lush, beautiful location. Apart from this, everything was amazing😊

Really enjoyable trip. Superb mountain scenery. Definitely a part of Argentina less visited by European tourists. The music evening at the local pena was a great night out. Lucia, our guide was brilliant and ensured everything went smoothly.

Such a great trip, from major cities to nature at its awesome best. Loved the tango and steaks in Buenos Aires; the incredible Iguazu Falls, fantastic to see, and feel, from both sides; pretty Paraty’s cobbled streets; relaxing Isla Grande; and the vibes and sights of Rio…..well worth adding on an extra couple of nights at the end. Felt perfectly safe everywhere, taking sensible precautions…..top tip, use Uber, cheap and readily available
