Take in a passionate football match, the vibrant street life, super shopping and lively clubs that party well past dawn. Many travellers view the giant Argentinean capital as their favourite city in all of South America.
The gateway to Parque de los Glaciares which is where you can visit Perito Moreno Glacier.
The furthest northerly town in Patagonia. Do the 27km cycle if you can. The Patagonia Brewery is a stop along the way and the views are amazing, as well as the beer. Bariloche is famous for beer and chocolate. Loads of hiking opportunities too which aren’t too far from town (Mount Otto - difficult).
Excellent wine and it’s also not far from Mount Aconcagua, the tallest on the continent. Renting bikes and winery maps, and spend a sunny day cycling to winery after winery.
One day hike from the town of El Chalten
Can be done as a day trip.
Preferably at La Bombonera in Buenos Aires.
Every year between June and October up to 3,000 humpback whales appear along Colombia’s western coast to give birth and nurse their young in the warm water. The best places to observe these magnificent mammals are Bahía Solano, El Valle and Nuquí in Chocó, and Bahía Málaga near Buenaventura. El Valle is a great base to organize a trip to the Utría National Park where you can observe whales from land. Tours can be arranged at The Humpback Turtle hostel in El Valle. Alternatively, stay at El Cantil Ecolodge Hotel in Nuquí where you can see whales jumping while having lunch.
Before we left, the shortlist for Argentina looked like this — 20 days planned.
Dashed = we never made it there (this time).
