From the vibrant colonial streets of Buenos Aires to the conifers of Swiss-like Bariloche, Argentina is a land of distinctly unexpected pleasures. Uruguay provides a rustic capstone to your adventure, with opportunities for fishing, horseback riding or simply enjoying the splendid scenery.
Visit the colorful La Boca district, settled by Italian
immigrants who worked the area's meatpacking plants and
warehouses. This evening, explore San Telmo, birthplace of the
tango. As you stroll the streets, hear the sensual tango music
pouring from within. Look in most caf?s and you might see
people dancing the sultry dance of Argentina. Tonight, attend a
dinner and show at one of the top tango venues.
Day 3
Fly to Bariloche, famous for its chocolate shops and
restaurants in a picture-postcard setting. Bariloche is a world-renowned
resort town with scenery reminiscent of Alpine Europe,
earning it the name "Little Switzerland." The region offers rich
photo opportunities, where nature mixes a palette of rich greens
and blues into a myriad of streams and lakes framed by snowcapped
peaks and lightly clouded skies. Perhaps visit the Llao Llao
Peninsula, beautiful Lopez Bay and the Cerro Campanario chairlift,
offering spectacular views of the valley below. Your hotel offers
myriad activities for family members of all ages, including golf,
polo, kayaking, fishing, skiing (in winter), biking and spa services.
Days 4-6
Return to Buenos Aires and connect to Carmelo, a
small village in Uruguay. Your resort is nestled among pine and
eucalyptus trees near the R?o de la Plata. Facilities here include
optional spa services, golf, horseback riding and canoeing.
Day 7
You have two full days to enjoy the wide range of
facilities available at your resort in Carmelo. The air is crisp and
clear here, and the climate temperate year round - ideal for a
family outing via horseback, canoe or bicycle.
Days 8-9
Transfer to the Carmelo airport to board your flight to
Buenos Aires. On arrival, transfer to your hotel with the remainder
of the day at leisure.
