Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, is a fantastic place to stay as it combines the European way of thinking with South America energetic life-style. It offers impressive museums and many architectural sites, long boulevards, and gorgeous plazas.

The fabulous Iguassu Falls formed by the unification of the Iguazú and Parana rivers consist of 275 different falls that stretch five kilometers along the Argentina – Brazil border. The highest and most famous fall, the “Garganta do Diabolo” (Devil's Throat), reaches a height of 64 meters ( 200 feet ), while the others reach a height of about 30 to 40 meters ( 100 feet ). The falls can be visited from the Argentinean and Brazilian side.

There are several natural reserves with various species of marine fauna along the Patagonian coast, but none of them offer such a spectacular concentration of wildlife as the Peninsula Valdés. This peninsula located 1,400 south of Buenos Aires, and it projects into the sea forming two gulfs of sheltered waters. The area is a meeting point for the southern right whales, which arrive here to complete their breeding cycle between May and December. In the northern part of the Peninsula the world's most important southern sea elephant continental breeding colony can be found.

Located on the shores of the Beagle Channel, Ushuaia is the southernmost city in the world. There you can visit its World's End and Maritime museums – an old prison – and enjoy its natural surroundings.

Tierra del Fuego National Park is inhabited by diverse flora and fauna species. The park is home to red foxes, guanacos, beavers, and condors.

Los Glaciares National Park covers a distance of about 600,000 hectares with 47 glaciers, such as the Marconi, the Viedma, the Moyano, the Upsala, the Agassiz, the Bolado, the Onelli, the Peineta, the Spegazzini, the Mayo, the Ameghino, the Moreno and the Frías, all of them draining into the Atlantic. The National Park has a breathtaking landscape of impressive glaciers descending from the continental ice field. Thirteen glaciers on the Atlantic side break into huge ice towers which plunge into the waters of lakes Viedma and Argentino.
