Argentina
Where should you visit in Argentina?
From dense rainforests to mighty glaciers, Argentina has it all! Stretching over 3500km and five distinct natural regions, Argentina is a travellers’ paradise. Visit Argentina, and see chunks of ice the size of houses falling from Perito Moreno glacier. Be amazed by mighty Iguazú Falls, a chain of cascades stretching over three km. Finally, round it all off with the best wine in the world in Mendoza’s Malbec vineyards.
When to visit Argentina:
December to February is summer in Argentina, and therefore peak season in Patagonia! The good weather means that hiking through Tierra del Fuego is one of the best things to do in Argentina.
Visit Argentina in the spring (September to November) for pleasant temperatures and not too much rain. Ideal for visiting Buenos Aires, the North and the Lake District.
Autumn, between March – May, is time for the grape harvest and therefore a perfect time for an Argentina wine tour! Visit Mendoza or Cafayate, because these cities are the hub of Argentina’s wine country.
June – August is winter, and therefore ski season! Head to the northern Andean resorts for the best snow and ski slopes.
