Patagonian Highlights Tour in Argentina

Bienvenido! Your Argentine adventure starts the moment you arrive in Buenos Aires, Argentina's lively capital city. A local guide will greet you at the airport and escort you on a private transfer to your hotel.

The rest of the day is yours to relax, recover from jet lag, explore your neighborhood, or savor authentic flavors at a nearby restaurant.

After breakfast, set off on a captivating journey through Buenos Aires' most iconic neighborhoods and landmarks. Begin in the historic city center, where the soaring Obelisco dominates Avenida 9 de Julio and Plaza de Mayo reveals the stories of Argentina's past with the Casa Rosada at its heart. Continue to the kaleidoscopic streets of La Boca, browse the antique stalls in bohemian San Telmo, and admire the sleek modernity of Puerto Madero. Round off with a leisurely walk through the elegant Recoleta, highlighted by ornate architecture, leafy parks, and the famed Recoleta Cemetery.

After the tour, return to your hotel and enjoy the remainder of today at leisure. As the evening falls, you may like to indulge in a delightful tango show paired with fine cuisine and exquisite Malbec wines.

Savor a relaxed morning at leisure before transferring to the airport for your flight south to Ushuaia, famously known as "the city at the end of the world." Nestled between snowcapped mountains and the Beagle Channel, this remote outpost offers a dramatic introduction to Patagonia's southern frontier.

Upon arrival, meet your English-speaking guide for a private transfer to your hotel. The rest of the day is free for you to unwind amid the breathtaking scenery or perhaps visit the evocative Ushuaia Jail Museum.

Begin your adventure by heading southwest from Ushuaia along National Route 3 to Tierra del Fuego National Park, with a photo stop at the golf course for panoramic views of the Beagle Channel and nearby islands. At the End of the World Train station, proceed for two more kilometers or ride the historic Southern Fuegian Railway (optional) into the national park. Walk amidst ancient lenga forests and peat bogs to discover the glacial Lake Acigami (formerly Lake Roca) and the Bahía Lapataia - the dramatic southern terminus of the Pan-American Highway.

Later in the day, set sail on the iconic Beagle Channel. Navigate to Sea Lion Island to observe a bustling colony in their natural habitat, then onward to Bird Island, a haven for majestic cormorants. You'll also explore Yámana archaeological remains and pass the iconic Les éclaireurs Lighthouse before returning to the city.

After breakfast and check-out, head for Ushuaia airport and catch your flight to El Calafate.

Upon arrival, a private transfer will be ready to welcome you and ensure a smooth ride to your hotel. The rest of the day is free for you to relax or explore at your own pace. As you like, an optional visit can be arranged to the Glaciarium, an interactive museum dedicated to the Patagonian ice fields.

Today, prepare for an awe-inspiring journey to the legendary Perito Moreno Glacier within the UNESCO-inscribed Los Glaciares National Park, 80 kilometers from El Calafate. The drive along Route 11 reveals shimmering Lake Argentino, flocks of native birdlife, sweeping Patagonian steppe, and lush Andean Forest.

Your first heart-stopping moment arrives at the "Curve of Sighs," unveiling a panoramic spectacle of the mighty Perito Moreno Glacier. Continue to Puerto Bajo de las Sombras for a one-hour Nautical Safari, cruising close to the glacier's towering ice walls and watching massive chunks crash into Lake Rico. Back on land, stroll the network of catwalks and balconies, each offering spectacular views and photo opportunities.

Your Patagonian adventure continues as we whisk you to El Calafate airport for your flight to Bariloche.

As you touchdown, meet a local guide for a private transfer to your hotel. This afternoon, set out on a half-day discovery tour to explore the city and its stunning surroundings. Following the southern shore of Nahuel Huapi Lake, highlights include the iconic Llao Llao Hotel, San Eduardo Chapel, and Puerto Pañuelo. At the breathtaking Punto Panorámico viewpoint, admire fantastic views of glistening lakes, emerald forests, and the majestic, snow-capped Andes. The climax of your exploration is an ascent via chairlift to the summit of Campanario Hill, which rewards you with a jaw-dropping 360° panorama. 

Today, journey into the heart of Patagonia's most iconic lake - Lago Nahuel Huapi - to explore its most enchanting branch, the Blest Arm. First, glide across its uniquely green waters to arrive at Cántaros Port. From here, a wooden path through the mystical Valdivian jungle leads you to the serene lagoon that feeds the breathtaking Cántaros Falls.
