Argentina Travel Highlights
Soccer (Football) in Buenos Aires
Argentines are football fanatics. Fans shouldn't miss a match at Boca Juniors' La Bombonera
stadium, in La Boca - a barrio where everything is painted blue and yellow.
Whales at Península Valdés
Off the fluke-shaped hump of Península Valdés, sea lions and elephant seals vie
with killer whales and the local stars - southern right whales - which come to the warm waters of the
Golfo Nuevo to breed.
Patagonia and the Ruta 40
Forget Route 66; get your kicks on the Ruta Cuarenta with stunning views of Patagonia's renowned
lakes, volcanoes and forests - and a spit-roast lamb to reward your efforts at the end of a tough day.
Gauchos in San Antonio de Areco
If you visit only one pampa town when you travel in Argentina, make it San Antonio de Areco - if possible on
the Día de la Tradición, a major gaucho fiesta in November with "rodeo" displays galore.
Boat trips on the Beagle Channel
No trip to Ushuaia - the world's most southerly town - is complete without a boat trip on the
Beagle Channel, the majestic, mountain-fringed sea passage and home to several species of seabird and
marine mammal. A must see when you travel in Argentina!
Perito Moreno Glacier
Mammoth blocks of ice detonate off the virginal Perito Moreno glacier providing a sound-and-sight
spectacle that easily qualifies this frozen monster - and national monument - as one of the world's
greatest natural wonders.
Aconcagua (highest mountain)
Aconcagua touches the heavens of South America. It's Latin America's biggest mountain and high on the list of mountain climbers around the globe.
Aconcagua lies near the city of Mendoza, the wine capital of Argentina.
Bariloche
You'd never imagine that you're in Argentina in Bariloche, a city that resembles Alpine towns of Switzerland. It's here that you can show off your
ski and snowboard tricks. Bariloche is the top ski destination of Argentina and has excellent hiking opportunities.
Iguazú Falls
Considered to be the most beautiful water falls in the world. Iguazu Falls is a breathtaking sight on the border of Argentina and Brazil. The brave can board a boat
that takes them right next to the roaring falls.
Train of the Clouds (Salta)
Rough landscapes combined with an unforgettable adventure at high altitudes. The train to the clouds takes you through rugged landscapes and over picturesque train
bridges to an altitude of 12,000 feet (4,000 meters).
