Argentina & Uruguay

Argentina’s contrasts never cease to amaze.

One day you’re on a boat rushing towards spectacular waterfalls through subtropical rainforest as electric blue butterflies flutter, and dusky swifts flit and dive through the spray where rainbows hover. Next thing you know, you’re walking across the sculpted blue surface of a vast and silent glacier, which suddenly ruptures with a roar into a milky turquoise lake.

The capital, Buenos Aires, is another Argentina, with its swift pace, chic restaurants and Parisian and English architecture. Growing in popularity at an amazing pace Argentina is set to thrill.  The only international gateway is Buenos Aires and from here you can connect to all the key holiday destinations.

South of the country you’ll find El Calafate, your base for the glaciers, and further south again is Ushuaia, for wildlife and access to Cape Horn, the Southern most tip of South America.

To the south-west is the Lake District of Bariloche and further north is the wine region of Mendoza. The northern areas of Argentina consist of Salta with its desert salt plains and the thunderous roaring Iguassu falls on the border with Brazil.
