The variety of landscape ranges from the high plateau of the Northwest –with its deserts, valleys, gorges and brightly colored hills- to the lakes, forests, glaciers, steppe, mountains and cliffs of Patagonia.. so the list of activities and places to visit are endless.

 

If you are looking to not to miss the must-dos on a trip in Argentina, here is our top selection!

1- Sail on the Beagle Channel and see the The End of the World Lighthouse (Ushuaia)

 

The Beagle Channel is a sea passage between Argentina and Chile located south of the province of Tierra del Fuego, specifically in front of the city of Ushuaia. It is one of the most wonderful tours that can be done during a stay at the “end of the world” due to its majestic beauty and its incredible landscape.

2- Take photos in the Great Salt Flats (Jujuy)

The Great Salt Flats provide a unique show due to their size and the effect with the horizon. They are even more imposing during the rainy season since they are covered by 30 cm. of water producing a turquoise panorama overlooking the Chañi Mount behind them.

Tip: It is not unusual in the Andes. Take it easy when you visit the Puna and try not to do anything too strenuous. Check with your doctor before coming if in doubt.

3- Whale watching in Puerto Madryn

The southern right whale watching is one of the main activities in Puerto Madryn and its surroundings.

The whales arrive on the coasts of the Valdés Peninsula during May and stay to reproduce and feed their calves until mid-December.

As whales do not arrive or depart all at once, at the beginning and end of the season there are few of them, making it more difficult to observe them, so the best time to watch them id between September and November.

4- Visit the Colón Theatre (Buenos Aires)

This Opera House, declared a Historic National Landmark in 1991, is among the most important lyric theaters in the world.

The construction of the current building began in the early 1890s, on the lands that occupied the first railway station in the country. The building was finally inaugurated on May 25, 1908, with the presentation of the opera Aída, by Giuseppe Verdi.

A must do in Buenos Aires is to take a guided tour of the theater or, even more advisable, to attend a ballet or opera while visiting the town.

7- Visit the Iguazu Falls under the light of the full moon

Only 5 nights a month, the Iguazu Falls get a new and unique shape thanks to the moonlight on full moon days. This natural effect allows rediscovering the falls in a way that you will not be able to see anywhere else.

The night walk proposes a tour that begins by getting on the ecological train of the jungle towards the famous Garganta del Diablo.

Check the calendar, since if your trip coincides with any full moon, you should not miss this great experience.
