BUENOS AIRES
Argentina is the 2nd largest country in South America. It has a population of 40 million, of which approximately 1/3 live in the capital, Buenos Aires. In such a massive area, the geography is immense and diverse, with an extremely varied climate. From the hot and dry northwest to the thunderous glaciers of Patagonia, from the staggering Andes mountain range to the fertile Pampas, it’s possible to find and do everything in this land of contrasts. Argentina houses several of the world’s natural wonders including the highest peak in the Americas, Aconcagua, and the impressive Iguazu Falls. Argentina must-tries include tasting some of the world’s best meat and wine, dancing a seductive tango and drinking the addictive mate.

BUENOS AIRES
BUENOS AIRES Buenos Aires is considered to be one of the most elegant and sophisticated cities in South America. Located on the shore of the Río* de la Plata, it is a huge metropolis with a core of majestic architectural glories, wonderful museums, modern art galleries and numerous theatres. Don’t leave without having a tango experience!
Highlights :: Plaza* de Mayo: Visit the political centre of Argentina where people come to express their opinions. Thursdays at 3:30 pm, the famous Madres de Plaza de Mayo gather to remember those who disappeared during the dictatorship. Nearby is the Metropolitan Cathedral, the Casa Rosada (with Evita’s famous balcony), and the Cabildo – the colonial city hall. :: The Obelisk: Go to celebrate Argentina’s next sporting victory at this city landmark located at the intersection of Corrientes and 9 de Julio avenues. :: San Telmo: Wind through this charming old barrio* where cobbled streets, colourful cafes, numerous antique shops and live Sunday tango shows centre around Plaza* Dorrego and Defensa street. :: La Boca: Meander along Caminito, a pedestrian walkway lined with murals, statues and colourful corrugated metal houses, that is home to many artists’ studios. Catch a football game in La Bombonera (the chocolate box), home to Boca Juniors and Maradona, and/or pop into their museum during the day. :: Palermo: Stroll through the Japanese and Botanical gardens and the Zoo, followed by the Bosques* de Palermo, the lungs of the city. Palermo Viejo (old) and Chico (small) are more residential and have Spanish-style architecture. Palermo Hollywood and Soho are filled with lots of restaurants, hip bars, nightclubs, coffee places and design shops. :: Recoleta: Walk by designer shops, posh restaurants and tree-lined avenues in this barrio* that has a distinct Parisian feel. The cemetery is renowned for its illustrious tenants including Evita. Visit the large arts and crafts market and the nearby Centro Cultural Recoleta, which hosts the latest art exhibitions. :: Puerto Madero: Head to this century-long abandoned port which was rescued in the 90’s by an urban renewal scheme resulting in apartments, a promenade and elegant restaurants. :: Tigre: Get out of town to El Tigre delta region, and take a boat trip along the meandering rivers and to Martín García Island - a natural and ecological reserve filled with birdlife and a maze of small inner islands.

TIGRE BUENOS AIRES TIGRE Tigre and its delta is where porteños* go to escape the city, and it’s certainly clear why they make the trip. The laid back town is nestled on an island created by several streams and rivers. Founded in 1820 it was named after the tigres or jaguars that used to roam there. You sadly won’t find jaguars anymore but Tigre has lots of shops and restaurants alongside the river as well as an Art Museum, Naval Museum and even a mate* museum. Don’t miss visiting the “Puerto de Frutos” (fruit port), now a crafts fair located in the old fruit market by the riverside. But where most people really want to get to is further out into the obscurity of the delta. The muddy waters coming down from the jungle streams can be navigated by boat to reveal a rich wildlife, stilted houses, large colonial mansions and marshy island hopping. Fishing and nature trails are popular activities or for more active travellers give kayaking or wakeboarding a go. How to get there: There are two rail lines to Tigre: the Mitre line and the more scenic Tren de la Costa. The Mitre train goes directly to Tigre (takes 50 min) but if you want to take the picturesque route you need to take the Mitre train and change at Bartolomé Mitre station and cross the pedestrian bridge over Avenida Maipú, which leads to the Maipú station of Tren de la Costa.
