Argentina Tours and Things To Do | Show Me the World Tours

Argentina Tours in Buenos Aires, Mendoza and Patagonia

Argentina is enormous, so the best things to do here are really four separate trips: Buenos Aires for food and architecture, El Calafate for the glaciers of Patagonia, Mendoza for wine and the Andes, and Puerto Iguazú for the falls. Flights connect them all through Buenos Aires. The tours below are the ones travelers rate highest in each, which makes them a reasonable itinerary on their own.

Buenos Aires Tours, Tango Shows and Food Experiences

The city highlights guided tour with hotel pickup is the most reviewed way to get your bearings across Recoleta, La Boca, San Telmo and the Plaza de Mayo. Eating is the other half of Buenos Aires. The nine-course meat tasting at Fogón Asado is a sit-down asado around an open grill with wine pairings, and it is the best-rated food experience in the country. For a day out of the city, the gaucho ranch trip to San Antonio de Areco adds horse riding, folk dancing and another asado.

Patagonia Tours and Perito Moreno Glacier Trips

From El Calafate, the Perito Moreno day tour is what everyone comes for: the glacier's 60-meter ice wall calves into Lago Argentino in front of the walkways, and both top-rated versions offer an optional boat cruise to the face. Pack layers, the wind is constant even in summer.

Mendoza Wine Tours and Andes Day Trips

Mendoza is Malbec country. The three-winery tour with an olive oil factory stop is the value option, with tastings at each stop. The sunset horseback ride in the Andes foothills ends with a barbecue under the stars and is one of the highest-rated experiences in Argentina.

Iguazu Falls Tours from Puerto Iguazú

The Argentine side full-day tour from Puerto Iguazú covers the upper and lower circuits and the Devil's Throat walkway, which is the closest you can get to the falls anywhere.

Argentina Travel Tips: Seasons, Domestic Flights and Currency

Patagonia's season runs October to April; Mendoza harvest is March. Buenos Aires works year-round. Most tours offer free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
