Argentina Holidays
Argentina’s cosmopolitan capital city Buenos Aires boasts grand avenues, a thriving café culture and sophisticated restaurants. Explore the many distinct neighbourhoods, such as trendy Palermo, the thriving La Boca complete with impromptu tango performances or the opulent Recoleta to name a few.
"Poor old Niagara" Eleanor Roosevelt commented when she first beheld the Iguazu Falls and once you’ve experienced the thunderous power of the 275 falls that throw a curtain of mist up 150 metres into the air you may well agree.
Sip world famous Malbecs in the sun drenched vineyards around Mendoza, marvel at the deep blue lakes of Bariloche or explore the stark desert landscapes around Purmamarca, in Northern Argentina.
To the south lies the vast wilderness of Patagonia, with the colossal Perito Moreno Glacier, remote lodges and traditional estancias as well as fantastic trekking opportunities amongst the forests, lakes & glaciers.
Right on the southern tip of the continent lies Ushuaia, the gateway to the wild and undiscovered Tierra del Fuego National Park and port of embarkation for expedition cruises to the Antarctic.
Combining natural splendour and outdoor adventure with passionate people and vibrant cities, few destinations can rival the diversity of experiences on offer in Argentina. Let Trailfinders plan your perfect Argentina adventure today.

WHERE TO GO IN ARGENTINA
Buenos Aires
Full of energy, style and sophistication Buenos
Aires is undoubtedly one of the great cities of
the world. Comprised of 38 eclectic barrios
(neighbourhoods) this diverse city offers stunning
architecture, historical sites, dramatic tango
dancing and fantastic dining. Spend a few days
in Argentina’s capital and get under the skin
of this buzzing cosmopolitan metropolis.
Iguazú Falls
One of South Americas most awe-inspiring sights,
Iguazu Falls are a must see! Iguazu roughly
translated means ‘Big Water’ which appropriately
describes the 275 waterfalls that form a border
between Argentina and Brazil in an epic
rainforest setting. Explore the many walkways
and viewing platforms within the national park.
Prepare to be amazed by the sheer power and
beauty of these falls.
Iberá Wetlands
The Ibera Wetlands (Esteros del Ibera) are the
second-largest wetlands in the world and are
home to a wide variety of wildlife including
caiman, capybara and a large number of birds.
Relatively unknown, this is one of the most
remarkable ecosystems in Argentina. This huge
expanse of wetland is made up of a series of
lakes, lagoons and marshland and is a must-visit
for nature lovers.
Mendoza
Set against the stunning snow-capped peaks of
the Andes, the Mendoza province is Argentina’s
premier wine-producing region. The pleasant city
of Mendoza boasts leafy plazas and charming
cafes whilst the cobbled streets of nearby
Chacras de Coria offer a delightful alternative.
There are over 1,500 wineries nestled in
picturesque scenery which can be visited
as part of a day trip or as an overnight stay.
Salta & The Northwest
North West Argentina offers a variety of
landscapes ranging from impressive salt flats
to rugged canyons. The city of Salta has the
nickname La Linda (the beautiful) as it contains
some of the country’s best preserved colonial
architecture and is surrounded by striking scenery.
Nearby Cafayate boasts impressive wineries whilst
the sleepy village Purmamarca sits in the shadow
of the Hill of Seven Colours.
Lake District
Argentina’s Lake District is a picturesque region where blue lakes are bordered by forested mountains which turn from green in the summer to beautiful reds and oranges in autumn and to snow-capped white in winter. The alpine town of Bariloche has a gorgeous setting on the edge of Lake Nahuel Haupi and a number of outdoor activities are available here including treks in the national park and boat trips on the lakes.
El Calafate & El Chalten
El Calafate is the gateway to Los Glaciares
National Park and the stunning Perito Moreno
Glacier, one of Argentina’s most impressive
natural wonders. View this colossal wall of ice
by cruising on the lake to the glacier face or on
observation walkways; it is very likely you will see
huge chunks of ice break off and crash into the
lake below! The nearby town of El Chalten is
an outdoor enthusiasts dream and the base for
some fantastic treks.
Peninsula Valdes
This windswept peninsula offers fantastic wildlife
viewing and has been designated a UNESCO
World Heritage Site. Southern right whales can
often be seen in the bay between June and
December, orcas and penguins may be spotted
between September and April whilst seals, sea
lions and a number of birds can be seen year
round. Choose to stay on the peninsula or in the
nearby town of Puerto Madryn.
Ushuaia
The Southernmost tip of South America, nicknamed the 'End of the World', Ushuaia is not only the gateway to Antarctica, but also a fantastic place for adventurers in it's own right. Explore the rugged landscapes of nearby Tierra del Fuego National Park and Lapataia National Park or sail out onto the Beagle channel to spot the local wildlife.
The Pampas
The Pampas, widely known for being the home of the Gaucho are flat and fertile plains that stretch from Buenos Aires all the way to Cordoba. Many traditional estancias are scattered across the countryside, offering an authentic experience and a taste of the 'true Argentina.'
Cordoba
Argentina's second largest city is bursting with gorgeous colonial buildings and quaint cafes. Head away from the city and you will be met by rolling hills and the stunning Sierra Mountains, home to many traditional estancias.

Top Tips From Our Experts
/michaehv/$FILE/michaehv.jpg)
Michael Hoverd
A boat ride to the base of the Iguassu Falls is the best way to get a feel for their size and power - just remember to bring a towel!
/hannahwa/$FILE/hannahwa.jpg)
Hannah Wardle
Mendoza is a highlight of any Argentina holiday. What better way to see a country than cycling around visiting a mix of iconic and more boutique vineyards and olive farms with several tastings on route.

Abby Waters
Head down to Ushuaia on a domestic flight from Buenos Aires and you will get the most spectacular views over emerald blue lakes and mountain peaks right from your seat.
