Argentina Solo Tours for Single Travelers

The perfect way to experience Patagonia. Full on but you won't want to waste a moment . Don't worry about the long days travelling - the scenery is magnificent and all the transport very comfortable - the "public bus" more of a luxury coach with loo and wifi. The boat trip from Ushuaia to the penguin island was a long one but stunning scenery and the boats go onto the beach although you don't get off. How many can say they've sailed the Beagle Channel... The Perito Moreno glacier was a highlight - do the boat trip to the glacier face there. We spent 3 hours wandering the walkways and it was difficult to tear ourselves away - We saw several calvings and were mesmerised. The Serrano river glacier trip was expensive and somewhat disappointing as weather conditions did not allow our boat to actually reach the viewpoint -worth checking on the chances of getting there before embarking on that trip. No refund for a reduced experience either. The Hotel del Paine is in a stunning location but check bills as they add a tip to everything , including the pricey packed lunch and excursion. The 2 long hikes -Bas de Torres and Laguna De Los Tres- are as described. Challenging but so rewarding. A google will find them on several blogs if you want to research. Don't underestimate the weather - we had clear blue skies for one and rain sleet and sun for the other! Really loved being in EL Chalten - a hikers paradise and would've liked another day there. Everywhere took credit cards - we changed $100 each to Arg pesos and didn't need any Chilean. USD cash accepted in most places too. Marcelo our leader was a force of nature from day one. His enthusiasm and excitement for the trip were evident and infectious. We knew we were in for a fantastic time from day one and throughout the whole fortnight that energy level  never dropped. He has an incredible  breadth of knowledge , from the geology, flora and fauna of Patagonia to the geopolitical issues that have shaped the region. I don't think a tour leader has ever made us laugh so much - a crazy Argentinean Italian who's love for his job was evident. He absolutely made the trip - the comedy love/hate for Argentina/ Chile gave rise to many hilarious moments making for a most memorable experience. All in all probably the best Explore! holiday of the 15 we have done, and we've done some crackers!

This was a fantastic trip with a great group of people and a terrific leader. I thought the hotels were fine and well located. The highlight one was in Torres Del Paine with views of the mountains. The meals here were included and they were delicious. The weather fully cooperated aside from one day in Torres Del Paine. But this didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits and our leader was able to adjust so we didn’t feel we missed out. Some of the listed optionals were not running. But I didn’t feel this effected anything as we were so busy and the catamaran trip to see the penguins was a highlight and we got very close to the, so I didn’t feel I missed out by not getting to walk on the island with them. This is a busy and very active trip that does require a certain level of fitness to enjoy the walks especially the last one in El Chelten. Hiking poles helped. I used my credit card in most places without issue. The suggested budget for meals and that is a bit low. Argentina, in particular, is very expensive and meals are not super cheap.

It’s a very different holiday and bespoke to those who are ‘into’ that sort of thing. Very well organised and the crew ship staff were all amazing. All our connections went perfectly. Lovely wildlife in their natural environment. Good that we all had to take precautions regarding echo cleanliness on and off ship.

Antarctica was somewhere I had long wanted to visit and I have finally been. This is the best trip I have ever done with Explore and there have been very many wonderful ones. To anyone considering going to Antarctica, I'd say, 'do go', you will not regret it.

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.
