Argentina Overview:

Argentina is a one of the world's most exciting countries. The capital, Buenos Aires, offers the richness of Europe with a unique South American flair. It is highly cosmopolitan, yet a short distance from waterfalls more breathtaking than Niagara Falls and mountain views as spectacular as the Swiss Alps.

Argentina is a large country with a number of distinct features and regions. North of Buenos Aires, Iguazu Falls is one of the greatest natural wonders in the world. To the west, the wine regions are located around the picturesque city of Mendoza. Further South lies the incredible region of Patagonia. Breath-taking Bariloche is the capital of the Patagonian lake region, with excellent skiing during the Argentine winter and warm weather sports the rest of the year. El Calafate and Peninsula Valdes feature remarkable natural beauty and wildlife, while Ushuaia and Tierra del Fuego are in close proximity to the Antarctic. While in Patagonia, you can visit penguin colonies, glaciers and enjoy the wide variety of native wildlife.

Finally, only a few hours by ferry from Buenos Aires, the visitor can find the quiet colonial town of Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay. Explore the beautiful town and enjoy the atmosphere, the food and the shopping.
