Argentina


Cafe Havana, Buenos Aires


For the rich cultural experience it offers - along with beautiful beaches, winery tours, treks across frozen glaciers, or views of spectacular waterfalls - it's hard to imagine a more exciting destination than Argentina.



Not to mention the memory-making trip to Buenos Aires - the country's sophisticated capital city. Beautiful, compact and easy to get around, most of the city's main attractions are conveniently located near to each other, making the capital an easy one to explore by foot.



While here, don't miss a chance to see fancier footwork on stage with a classic performance of the tango, Argentina's national dance.



Farther afield, wine lovers will truly appreciate trips to San Juan or Mendoza wine country where quality wine production is at its peak. For fun in the sun, experience for yourself the beauty of sand dunes and crystal clear waters of Mar del Plata, and discover why it remains vacationing Argentine's favorite vacation spot.



Note that in July and August, nobody hits the surf; they hit the slopes! Summer is ski season in the southern hemisphere, and top Argentine ski resorts in Bariloche, Las Leñas and Ushuaia are the places to be.



For more spectacular natural beauty, pack the wide-angle lens for stunning photos of Iguazu Falls (located at the country's northeast corner) or head south for an unforgettable trek across the Argentine Antarctic at Glaciers National Park ...
