Argentina Adventure Tours With Diverse Tour Packages

By Hector Calibugar


Argentina tour packages come in a great variety because the area is so diverse. Whether one wants to participate in Buenos Aires high life or trek along the icy regions cluttered with glaciers and filled with myth, there are ideas for each individual. Take a walk through the different trip options in this section of Latin America.

Patagonia features the best of the high life and adventure of Argentina. The huge glaciers to be seen throughout Patagonia are exquisite enough to startle even the most seasoned traveller. Close to Los Glaciares National Park, visitors can see the enormous Perito Moreno Glacier, which is made from shifting ice.

The Patagonian wilderness is gated by El Calafate, a culture filled area with many outdoor adventure options. Tourists can take in some pampering before they embark on a trip into the glacier rich areas. This can be done by ship, and the huge Upsala Glacier has become far more accessible because of high tourists demand and the number of ships traveling there.

Cruises can be done in luxury style with staff and amenities to pamper and cook for guests. Many glaciers can only be seen from a distance when travelling by boat, so there are walking excursions offered to those who want to see some of them from a closer vantage point. The boats stop at certain points, allowing tour operators to tailor hikes to every fitness level on arrival.

The Beagle Channel runs towards Buenos Aires through a glacier rich zone traveled by sea. It runs through two settlements called Puerta Williams and Ushaia. The channel received its name from a British ship that did surveys in the early 19th century. It's famed for having been traversed by Darwin, who commented about the severe difficulties of the journey. In those days the waters were too rough for their ships so the world new the channel for its ship wrecks.

Argentina's capital city, Buenos Aires, is often named Latin America's Paris. It has outdoor cafes, cobbled roads and excellent shopping, allowing tourists to experience a world class city rich with Latin American culture. Adventurers will want to embark on a trip to Iguaza falls after they've taken part in a few of the cultural activities in the city. A tango show is not to be missed.

A national park surrounds Iguaza falls, inside of which is the boundary between Brazil and Argentina. The falls are a heritage site. The habitat during the initial leg of the trip is a tropical jungle. The part of the falls belonging to Argentina gives visitors a close view either by boat or foot. The falls' Brazilian side gives tourists a distant view of the vista and waters.

Mendoza is a wine and cuisine region with a number of vineyards and options for wine tasting trips. Those passionate about the wilderness will enjoy its outdoor activities and legends. Myths abound in the area and it's well known as the place where Darwin discovered many of the fossils he wrote about. The highest land tourists can reach in the Andes by car is in Mendoza too and gives a spectacular vista to experience. Argentina tour packages are possible to do in luxury or with a tent and back pack.
