Top Argentina Experiences


Iguazu Falls

Marvelling at Iguazu Falls

In our opinion the greatest waterfalls on earth, the sheer scale and diversity of Iguazu’s network of earth-shattering cascades warrants a minimum of two full days to explore. Surrounded by tropical rainforest and an array of wildlife, this is one of Mother Nature’s most impressive pieces of work.

Exploring The Puna Off-Road

Exploring The Puna Off-Road

The last trip we took before Covid hit was to explore the mind-blowing landscapes from Salta. Glistening salt flats, red rock canyons, towering white sand dunes, multicoloured lagoons, bizarre pumice stone fields. This is a harsh high-altitude land, but the rewards are beyond spectacular.

Perito Moreno

Face to Face with Perito Moreno

One of the most accessible glaciers on earth, this immense wall of ice is also a modern rarity in that it is continuously advancing. Its 5km wide face edges forward at up to 2m each day, causing building-sized icebergs to collapse in front of your eyes… particularly thrilling if you visit by kayak!

Vino and Relaxation in Mendoza

Vino and Relaxation in Mendoza

Luxury holidays in Argentina are never complete without tasting the world-famous Malbecs and Cabernets of Mendoza. You can visit several top vineyards a day in this town. It is also home to the country’s finest selection of boutique luxury spa hotels and restaurants, making it the ultimate spot to relax and indulge after all your adventures.

Tango in Buenos Aires

Tango & Steak in Buenos Aires

Argentina Eco Holidays: Frequently Asked Questions


Please reach us at info@traveldifferently.co.uk if you cannot find an answer to your question.

For an incredible Argentina adventure travel trip, set aside at least two weeks to explore the country’s diverse landscapes. This will give you time to tick off iconic destinations like Buenos Aires, Patagonia, and the Ande. For those seeking a luxury adventure to Argentina, you can always opt to stay longer and immerse yourself further in the country’s vibrant culture and awe-inspiring natural scenery.

However, if you’re eager to delve deeper when you travel to Peru, such as exploring the Amazon rainforest, you may wish to extend your trip and stay longer.

Argentina is an exceptional destination for a holiday as it simply has so many incredible natural sites to see. You can investigate the wildlife-rich Ibera Wetlands, discover the underexplored Lake District and kayak by the awe-inspiring Perito Moreno Glacier. Argentina is certainly not short on adventure.

For those seeking luxury Argentina holidays, the country boasts world-class accommodations, fine dining options, and an incredible array of exclusive experiences. This extends from the likes of staying at the country’s most luxurious eco-lodge at Iguazu Falls to taking a private river cruise in Buenos Aires.

The spring months from September to November are often hailed as the best months for going on wildlife holidays in Argentina. Temperatures remain warm yet pleasant, with highs of 22°C and lows of 14°C.

January and February are also thought to be great months for Argentina adventure travel as they fall under the country’s summer season and have the hottest temperatures. Spring and summer offer ideal conditions for discovering the country’s famous landscapes.

Those setting off on Argentina tours from the UK do not need a visa to enter the country, provided they are travelling as a tourist for 3 months or under. The only exception to this is if you are travelling on an emergency travel document.

Some things Brits do need for Argentina holidays, however, are a valid passport that has at least one blank page for stamps and proof of onward and outward flights.
