Argentina Highlights - Grand Patagonia Travel Vacation Package

With this amazing package you will visit the highlights of Patagonia. You will explore the Peninsula Valdes, home of world's most important southern sea elephant continental breeding colony, Ushuaia - the southern most city in the world, Tierra del Fuego National Park and El Calafate – where you will find yourself at the gateway to the majestic world of glaciers. Also, this package includes excellent accommodations, tours and transportation, and much more.

There are several natural reserves with various species of marine fauna along the Patagonian coast, but none of them offers such a spectacular concentration of wildlife as the Peninsula Valdés. This peninsula located 1,400 Km to the south of Buenos Aires and it projects into the sea forming two gulfs of sheltered waters.  The peninsula 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 some 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. It 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.
