Why choose Argentina?

Argentina's natural beauty and friendly people attract visitors from throughout the world. It is the country of the good meat, the good wine and the tango. Located in the Southern part of South America, Argentina is the second biggest country in Latin America. Since it is such a big country, it has many different landscapes, such as mountains, plains and plateaus. The country is not only home to the highest summit in America, (Aconcagua, 6,959 m) but also to the widest river in the world (Río de la Plata, 220 km in its mouth) and the widest Avenue (9 de Julio).

In this country you'll enjoy the dense forests of Tucuman and Misiones (where the water falls from up to 80 meters in the Iguazu Falls), the plains of the famous Pampa where the gauchos lived and imposing snowy mountains where you can ski and play other snow sports. You can also visit the Patagonia, an area of contrasts with lakes and endless plains. Here you'll enjoy Perito Moreno Glaciar lake (5 km at the front and the height ranges from 150m to 2,500 m) and see the Franca whales that come to Peninsula Valdés every year. In the provinces of Salta and Mendoza you can visit the famous vineyards and taste some of the best wines in the world.
