My Open Book

Coming down to Argentina for seven to eight days only does not give you enough time to see much, in fact at best you can visit couple places, first of which if arriving from North America will likely be Buenos Aires. Most people are lured by Patagonia combine visit of Buenos Aires with a short trek in Torres del Paine. That is fine and but these two stops is all that can be done on this short amount of time.

To add more stops you need more time. With ideally two weeks, you can add two more stops on your tour of Argentina. After touring Retiro, Palermo, downtown of Buenos Aires, Puerto Madero, San Telmo, Recoleta and La Boca, and seeing at least one tango show, you can then fly to Puerto Madryn to see whales and penguins. Peninsula Valdes is definitely the place to see and it is also half way down to Ushuaia in Southern Patagonia, the second stop you can add.

Ushuaia is your starting point for a full day excursion of trekking and canoeing in the Tierra del Fuego National Park. To make best of your trip to Southern Patagonia, you need two days there minimum and on your second day go on a navigation tour of the Beagle Channel.

Your last stop could either be a trek in Torres del Paine or at least a visit to Punta Arenas and Puorto Natales, for your glimpse of Chilean Patagonia and that’s it, you will be out of time – you definitively do not have time to tour Chile beyond.

Alternatively, from Ushuaia you could fly to El Calafate and from there make a rewarding excursion to Perito Moreno Glacier. The next day you could visit Upsala and Onelli Glaciers and return to Buenos Aires after that.

For a change in scenery, feeling you may have had enough of Patagonia after your stops in the very south, you could head for the extreme north of Argentina to the magnificent Iguazu National Park, and tour the Argentine as well as Brazilian sides of the impressive Iguazu Falls.

All in all four, maximum five stops, is all you can do with 14 days in Argentina. Keep on mind that the fifth stop will definitely add to your overall tour costs, and your trip will also be more hurried. Best keep your trip to Argentina to four stops only and you will get more enjoyment from your journey. To see more there is always next time.
