Argentina Travel Guide

Argentina and Chile -- separated by the serrated peaks of the Andes Mountains -- combine to blanket the southern half of South America; the distance from Chile's northern tip to the southern tail of Argentina's Tierra del Fuego spans almost 4,830km (3,000 miles). And the scope of experience to be found here is no less grand: from the cosmopolitan bustle of Buenos Aires to the desolate moonscape of Chile's Atacama Desert; from the tropical jungles and thunderous falls of Iguazú to the tundra and glaciers of Torres del Paine National Park. Whether you've come to meander the quiet towns of Chile's Lake District or dance the night away in a smoky, low-lit tango bar, your trip to the Southern Hemisphere won't disappoint. In this chapter, we've selected the best that Argentina and Chile have to offer -- museums, outdoor adventures, hotels, and more. So read on and start planning!
