When to visit?

Argentina is the traveler’s dream. There is something for each season. But for the most pleasant, optimal weather you must go in their spring which goes on roughly from September to November. But to get the Andean peak experience, you must try it out from December to February. Although keep your pockets snow-free, it might blizzard any time.

Average Cost per Person

Any travel to Argentina was written off as exuberant, and hence all people just dismissed the idea. But this couldn’t be more of a myth. Like the rest of South America, Argentina is quite the spot for hostels and college backpacking. The main issue here is the flight prices. It definitely is not the least expensive of all travel destinations, but it is quite a spectacle. It should go to about 70-90,000 rupees and can be clubbed with the rest of South America.

Visa Requirements

Argentina travel and visa allows you inside for tourism and business for about 90 days. There are possibilities for different types of Visas to be doled out. There are special provisions for dealing with damaged visas here. They are not entertained at any cost. So, beware about this.

Where to visit?

Buenos Aires

BA is the house of chill. It is the city that goes right down to your pores and calls them to join the party. It is European splendor sprinkled in perfect amounts Latin wonder. BA gave the world Tango, and we will always be in debt for it.

The nights here are direct transport from alcohol to coffee. You never know when its morning. Hardcore party animals are found in their natural habitat at about 4 am in the morning with shoes in hand and sleep in their eyes. The culinary infusion of this place is seen at every spot in the city. The parrillas are serving the best steaks everywhere, and nothing tops a late-night cone of dulce de leche.

Top Experiences

Iguazu Falls

The froth brims over from the gods and onto this paradise of a place. The tropical birds and life call at you and beckon you to come to see this. They create a trail amongst the mounts and take you onto crystal water and energy generated. Not a place to miss.

Gaiman

The Welsh community has been reducing in numbers, and there is a lot of this beautiful culture that is left unsaid. This is one of the only remaining colonies near the Chubut River. The dresses, the food, the experience. Feel their culture course through your veins. The Welch cakes and teas were the definite highlights here.

Perito Morena Glacier

This pristine crystal-clear sight is enough to check all your reflections. There are very few places in the world where you get to be so close to terrain like this. You can also walk some of the hard patches of ice here. Sometimes the ice breaks and falls creating/ giving thunderous applause. This fear and exhilaration can only be understood if felt.

Block of the Lights

There are a series of underground tunnels built under Buenos Aires known as Manzana de las Luces. It has always been a big mystery to everyone what the exact reason to create these were. There are only theories. But they sure make for a fun and mysterious place to explore.

Guitar Forest

You know how people dedicate and write songs for the people they love? Well, Pedro Martin and his love went a little bit over the line. He completed his wife’s dream of building a guitar that can be seen from the sky and created a forest in the shape of a guitar when she died a sudden death. Talk about love going overboard right? Well, at least his love will save the environment.

Travel Smart with these tips

• Avoid Protests and Demonstrations

These take place in Buenos Aires quite often than one would like to admit and at times they get a bit violent. The people there definitely do help each other, but you never know what it might get out of hand. Do not stay till the end because this is when things go down.

• Catch an Uber

It is generally safe for women to travel and walk around most of Argentina around the day alone. But you might have to deal with the occasional whistles and people judging your looks. At night it is best to take a cab or call an Uber because some areas are risky.

• Beware of Dogs

Argentina comes in packs of dogs. You will find hordes of them milling around and even though on most days they are pretty humane, you never know when they might act up. So, carry some people around with you. It always helps.

• Reciprocity Fees

People coming into Argentina from a few countries have required to pay these in the recent past. There have been changes in the laws, and you might have to pay these fees to enter. You must check with the embassy to know before coming.
