Argentina's economic unrest long since calmed, the time is right
to visit Argentina while your money goes farther than ever and
the hordes of tourists stay away due to exaggerated news reports.
Over 350 glaciers and mountains covered in ice provide a spectacular
backdrop for trekking
in El Chalten. Strap on crampons and hike on 15 mile long, 15,000
year old Perito Moreno Glacier in El Calafate (surprisingly easy
even for the timid!). There are a wide variety of activities in
the beautiful Lakes
District for active and leisure travelers alike. Buenos
Aires is a very European city overflowing with culture, and Tierra
del Fuego is the undiscovered jewel of South America
that tourism has not yet altered. Get there while its still unknown.

“The
sights kept getting better and better. After Iguacu we asked ourselves,
how do you beat this? Then we walked among the penguins in Valdes,
and it was absolutely unbelievable! Then the mountains crashing
into the sea at Ushuaia, with the snow-covered mountains all around.
Wonderful! And finally walking on the Perito Moreno glacier! As
I said, it just got better and better.” - February 09 ~

Iguazu
Falls:
Located on the border of Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay is one
of nature's grand spectacles, Iguazu Falls. Over 275 separate
waterfalls plummet over 200 feet for over two and a half miles.
Wear a raincoat and hat for protection from the constant mist
that forms an arched rainbow. Catwalks and lookouts offer a close
look at the thundering falls or look down into Devil's Throat
from an airplane overflight. For the daring, take a boat ride
close to the falls and make sure to bring plenty of film as photographic
opportunities abound.
Lakes District:
Charming in a European fashion, all the creature comforts are
here among the hilly avenues and quaint buildings. Chocolate-making
is a tradition in the town of Bariloche, and almost no visitor
leaves without a sample. The charming Edelweiss Hotel or the famous
Hotel Llao-Llao will graciously
accommodate your desires. For one of the best day trips in all
of South America, arrive or depart to Chile here by a series of
Lake Crossings.
Patagonia:
Los Glaciares National Park is your destination for hiking in
Patagonia and the best viewing of wildlife, birds and glaciers
in Patagonia. We'll accommodate you at the very comfortable Los
Notros or Kau Yatun as your base for guided excursions
of surrounding tundra, mountains, and glaciers. For the more adventurous,
our Patagonia trekking
is not to be missed. Explore the interior of a glacier, get an
up-close view of the towering ice walls, or travel to the Fitzroy
area as a trekking base to the famous towering pinnacles of Cerro
Terro and Fitzroy. Birdwatchers look out for the Andean condor,
Magellanic woodpecker, red backed hawk Austral parakeets, and
the rare choique or lesser rhea just to name a few.
Tierra
del Fuego:
Capital of Tierra del Fuego, the path to the White Continent,
Ushuaia is the southernmost city in the world. Cruise
with a naturalist guide on the Beagle Channel, including Seals
Island where you may witness petrels, cormorants and sea lions
at close quarters. Marvel at the impressive scenery of snowcapped
peaks, rivers, waterfalls and dense woods in Tierra del Fuego
National Park. Keep your eyes out for a variety of wildlife, including
the Andean condor. Ushuaia serves as our embankment point for
cruises to Antarctica.
We can also
arrange tours to Salta and the Northwest of Argentina, the Marshlands
and rolling plains for Estancia stays. Contact a consultant for
customized itineraries to Argentina.
