Iguazu Falls

The ultimate holiday to Argentina

See the sights of Buenos Aires and the almighty Iguazu Falls, explore the Andean Northwest, drink wines in the vineyards of Mendoza and visit southern Patagonia including the Perito Moreno Glacier.

You will start in the tango filled streets of Buenos Aires before heading the see the almighty Iguazu Falls. After this, you will head to one of our favourite areas of Argentina - Salta & the Northwest. The Andes Mountains create some superb and dramatic scenery in this area but unlike Patagonia, you will see almost desert-like scenery as well as the expansive Salt Flats.

After your adventure in the Northwest, you will head to the warm vineyards of Mendoza for three nights in the wine capital of Argentina before the holiday moves on to southern Patagonia. You fly to Bariloche for two nights to explore the beautiful crystal-clear Lake District, set against a dramatic backdrop of the snow-capped Andes Mountains. Finally, you move onto El Calafate where you will have the opportunity to see one of Argentina’s biggest attractions - the Perito Moreno Glacier.

Thank you to Sarah at Latin Routes for creating a seamless itinerary for our trip to North Argentina. Everything was thought of and well planned in advance.

Helen R

Look no further if you are planning to go to South America. The trip to Chile was clockwork. The guides were excellent, and we felt really pampered in the beautiful hotels.

Sarah M. B
Stayed August 2024

Our bucket list trip to Ecuador and the Galápagos Islands had been looked forward to for a very long time. We were not disappointed! The highlight of our trip, without a doubt, was our five-day eastern cruise on the beautiful yacht La Pinta.

This is an excellent company. I worked with Paul, who was very knowledgeable and patient when organising my itinerary. There is no pressure selling. Recommend them for South America trips!
