Luxury Argentina Travel Ideas For Extreme Explorers

By Allan Bigarda


Vaya Adventures pays careful attention to the individual at each stage of tours and provides luxury travel for those who enjoy comfort. Argentina is filled with history, culture, scenic routes and is great to enjoy on a cruise. These can all be experienced with the educated aid of a guide.

There are a number of excellent boutique hotels in the region, particularly in the wine lands. The country has a rich history with monuments to journey through. Sites to see in Buenos Aires include Uruguay, a colonially designed heritage site. There are biking opportunities around the Tigre.

Travelers will enjoy hiking around Iguaza falls. A national park close by can be hiked through guided or alone. The falls can be seen from an alternative vantage point in Brazil, where the scenery changes and boating becomes an option.

The hub of the wine country is in Mendosa, which has Andean scenes. The vineyards are perfect for walks and visitors are given the opportunity to taste some of the wines produced locally. A more formal wine tasting adventure that lasts throughout the day can be had at the Uco Valley. This is the most famed wine region in the area.

One can walk up into the Andes when in Aconagua. There are towns along the route as well as a national park. There are hikes for every fitness level so guides will tailor one when there.

An easier hiking alternative takes place in the Torres del Paine national park, where tourists can participate in guided walks that can last as long as visitors wish. There is a glacier and mountain routes with truly exquisite scenery. One can do the trip on horseback, but this will entail a longer trip that features overnight stays.

The Glacier of Perito Moreno can be seen from far off by all but people can also take a simple hike closer for a superior view. Difficult hikes can be chosen in this area. There is a Patagonian traditional rural ranch to stay at called Estancia, and it's a truly authentic experience.

Horseback riding and hiking can be done at one's leisure. Many hiking trails allow staff to select according to guests' wishes. The energetic few can hike to Upsala Glacier. Boating can be a more serene experience at Estancia Cristina.

Experiencing Patagonia by cruise ship is an exciting option. There are waterways that wind between glaciers and channels. There are points where visitors can disembark for some hiking. Glacier Alley is one area not to be missed.

Glacier Alley is seen by few people and is a vision to see. Its at the southern end of South America. The Beagel Channel leads one to Pia Bay where the Pia Glacier can be viewed at leisure. Cape Horn has a national park close by that's full of legends.

Cape Horn was a famous ship wreck spot in the 20th century. Charles Darwin was subject to it in the Thirties and claimed that just the sight of it would make a landsman dream about peril and death for days. The choppy waters and cold weather was spoken about by seamen who had been there. Vaya Adventures takes visitors straight to the location that sprouted nightmares in ancient times.
