This vast country has everything from tropical forest to sandy coasts, dry deserts, wide plains, high mountains, glaciers and lots of wildlife. On top of this Argentina offers such bonuses as the gorgeous - must see - Iguassu Waterfalls, the highest mountain outside Asia (Aconcagua), excellent wine regions and Ushuaia, the starting point to visit Antarctica!

Top Destinations in Argentina.

Below are our most visited cities, destinations and national parks in Argentina. Click on the city for more details of the destination.

The Perito Moreno near Calafate is a gigantic glacier in the far south of Argentina. Unlike most glaciers this one is still growing. When big chunks of ice break of the head of the glacier into the lake, it is a great sound, something you won´t forget.

Ushuaia, an exotic name for a remote little city. You are at Tierra del Fuego, the most southern part of South-America. You may still see a few animals, but mostly it is wild, windy and abandoned. The Panamerican Highway that starts in Alaska ends here... Boat expeditions to the Antarctic may depart here.

Buenos Aires is known as the "Paris of the South". It has beautiful allees, great shopping and of course the Tango in the colorfull city part "La Boca"! Note that Buenos Aires is different from the rest of Argentina.

The mighty Iguazu falls in the jungle are one of the natural world wonders. They are definitely worth visiting if you are in the area (less than 1000kms away!). You need to spend at least 1 day on the Brasilean and 1 day on the Argentinean side.

Puerto Madryn is a coastal city in Patagonia. It is well-known for the nearby Valdes Peninsula with a lot of "wild" life, if you can call all those sweet Penguins and chubby Sea Elephants "wild"... You may have a real opportunity to see Orcas here.

Cafayate is an important tourist location in Northern Argentina thanks to the extraordinary landscape and the great wines. The largest golf course in S-America is here.

Mendoza is a nice, modern city at the foot of the Andes. It has many vineyards and bodegas. Feel free to taste and enjoy the sites. From Mendoza you can also cross to Chile passing the Aconcagua mountain.

A personal favorite. Nice "little" town with flowers and churches in an arid environment "away from it all". Salta's historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most beautiful in all of Argentina.

Overlanding Tours

Adventure travel with truck, camping and self-cooking

An Overlanding Expedition, especially in Africa, is a budget and adventure-oriented kind of travel. Usually anyone who is flexible enough and has energy can participate. You may travel by special truck or bus, sleep in tents with/without facilities and assist in cooking the meals. No fancy restaurants, no air-conditioning. It sounds romantic and fun, but is also basic.
