Following the route you will reach Recoleta, for several decades the most prestigious neighborhood that is distinguished by the old buildings that are presented as a summary of the European architecture of the last century, and for their intense life given by neighbors and tourists who walk through its glamorous streets. Here you can visit the distinguished cemetery of great architectural value. The circuit ends in the neighborhood of Palermo, highly valued for its green spaces that form the lungs of Buenos Aires. At the end, return to the Hotel. At night, the finishing touch will be a Dinner Tango Show, which is the best option for experiencing TANGO.

Regular trip to the Argentinian side of the Iguazú Falls. After picking you up at your hotel, you will be taken to the entrance to the Iguazú National Park. The train called “Rainforest Train” departs from the Visitor's Center, an ecological train that goes all along the Misiones rainforest towards the Garganta del Diablo (Devil’s Throat), the starting point of a walkway to one of the most striking landscapes in Argentina, next to the jump after which the Union Jump was named, a place impossible to describe in words for its beauty and energy that makes everyone feel thrilled. A place not to be missed! The trip continues in the next stop: the Iguazu Falls. Here, you have two options: you can either go on the Upper Circuit, which has a 500-meter distance, or the Lower Circuit, a number of walkways that allow appreciating such a natural wonder from another angle. To finish this unforgettable trip, we highly recommend to hire “The Great Adventure: Iguazu Falls Baptism”, which is an optional tour (not included): a combination of a nautical adventure riding on Zodiac boats, in which you will go on a six- kilometers ride down the Lower Iguazú River going through rapids to finish your round in the Devil’s Throat Canyon, and a ride on an uncovered double-traction vehicle through the rainforest, where you will have the chance to fully appreciate the flora and, if you are lucky, the native fauna. 1-day trip.

The glaciers Moreno, Onelli, Agassi and Upsala are fed by this ice field. The Perito Moreno, being the most breathtaking glacier, flows over the Lago Argentino and adopts a wide spectrum of colors from white to turquoise. The terminus of the Perito Moreno Glacier is 5 Km wide, with an average height of 70 m above the lake level. We start our ramble at the Viewpoint, coming down through the walkways opposite to the glacier. The vastness of the landscape can be observed and the sound of the constant ruptures. An amazing spectacle that cannot be missed! We will continue the trip taking the “Nautical Safari”, navigating though the Brazo Rico (southern arm) of the Lago Argentino. The trip lasts approximately one hour and gives tourists the possibility to “live” the glacier from a closer sight. Once we are just in front of the terminus, the ship will stop for some minutes to appreciate its beauty and vastness.
