Day 1:
Buenos Aires
Arrival at Ezeiza International Airport. Our staff will be waiting to assist you and transfer you to the hotel.

Day 2:
Buenos Aires
Breakfast.
Personalized city tour of Buenos Aires (5 hours), where you will learn part of our history and enjoy the architectural legacy left by our ancestors, such as: Plaza de Mayo, the typical La Boca neighborhood, once the city’s natural port, where in the late 19th century a thriving and growing Italian community, predominantly of Genoese origin, began to settle, “Caminito,” a street declared a museum with its colorful houses, arriving at San Telmo, the oldest part of the city, and almost without noticing, passing into Puerto Madero, the youngest neighborhood where international cuisine restaurants abound. Continuing the route, we reach Recoleta, the most prestigious neighborhood for several decades, characterized by its old buildings, which are a summary of European architecture from the last century, and its vibrant life created by both the locals and the tourists strolling through its glamorous streets. The tour ends in Palermo, highly valued for its green spaces that form the lungs of Buenos Aires. At the end, you can choose to stay at the last point of the visit or return to the hotel.

Day 3:
Buenos Aires - Iguazú
Breakfast. Personalized transfer to the airport to board the Aerolíneas Argentinas flight to Iguazú (flight not included).

Day 4:
Iguazú
Breakfast. Personalized excursion to the Argentine side of Iguazú Falls. Embark on a fascinating excursion to the impressive Iguazú Falls, where you will immerse yourself in a unique experience of connection with the lush nature.

In the afternoon, immerse yourself in the charming atmosphere of the "Yabuticaba Mercadito de la Selva," where we will greet you with a welcome drink and a unique cultural experience about Yerba Mate. Afterward, you will savor and experience authentic local cuisine. At the end, we’ll return to your hotel.

A shared full-day excursion to the Perito Moreno Glacier walkways, including the "Nautical Safari" boat ride. Departure from the hotel for an 80 km drive to the entrance of Los Glaciares National Park, a UNESCO Natural Heritage site, as it preserves a vast area of the continental ice field, from which the Moreno, Onelli, Agassi, and Upsala glaciers descend. The most impressive is the Perito Moreno, which stretches across the waters of Lake Argentino with a 5 km wide and 70-meter-high wall. The Panoramic Point marks the start of a descending walk on the walkways in front of the glacier. From there, you’ll enjoy the vast landscape and hear the constant ice calving. The excursion continues with the "SAFARI NAUTICO," a boat ride along the Rico arm of Lake Argentino, lasting about 1 hour, offering the chance to experience the glacier up close. Once in front of the wall, the boat stops for a few minutes to allow you to marvel at its vastness and beauty. Return to the hotel.

After boarding at the Private Port La Soledad (60 km from El Calafate), the navigation departs toward the glaciers of the National Park. We disembark at Puesto de Las Vacas for an interesting walk where we will learn about the glacier's discovery and its features.
