After breakfast, you'll head out on a Buenos Aires city tour during which you'll explore the districts of San Telmo (bohemian), La Boca (colourful), Recoleta (elegant), Puerto Madero (glitzy), the city center, and the main plaza. The tour will end in the Recoleta Cemetery where you can stay on to explore on your own or continue back to the hotel.

Today is yours to explore wonderful Buenos Aires at your leisure. Shop for antiques in San Telmo, explore the city’s fantastic art galleries or even take a stroll in the delightful greenery of the Costanera Sur. The main districts in Buenos Aires are pedestrian friendly and the city's subways are efficient and easy to use. In the evening, you will be collected from your hotel and taken to one of the best tango houses in Buenos Aires for an authentic Porteño evening of dinner, music, and dancing. Choose either a small, intimate show or a large, Broadway-style production.

Upon arrival to Iguazu Falls, you'll head straight to the Argentinian National Park to see the stunning jungle scenery and rushing waterfalls. This side of the falls allows up-close views from pathways that hug the cascading beauty. You'll visit Devil's Throat, the largest set of waterfalls in the park and when your tour finishes, you'll be taken to your Iguazu hotel for the evening.

This morning you'll experience Iguazu Falls from the Brazilian side, which is better for all-encompassing vistas of the entire site. From the walkways you'll enjoy panoramic views of Iguazu's 275 falls. Altogether, Iguazu Falls stretches an impressive mile across.

In the morning you'll fly from Puerto Iguazu to Trelew (via Buenos Aires) before being transferred to your Puerto Madryn hotel in time for cocktails and dinner.

After breakfast, you’ll set out to Peninsula Valdes, possibly spotting guanacos, lesser rheas, Patagonian foxes and hairy armadillos en route. Upon arrival at the Peninsula you’ll learn about the unique fauna, flora and history of the region, before continuing on to the Isla de los Pajaros look-out point and Puerto Piramides, a small village and departure point for whale watching tours. Following your 1.5hr navigation in search of whales, you’ll have the opportunity to view large sea lion and elephant seal colonies before returning to your hotel.

Today you will head to the most important breeding colony of Magellanic penguins in the world, home to almost one million birds. Punta Tombo – a 2-mile rocky point covered by sand, clay and gravel – boasts the largest concentration of sea birds on the entire Patagonian coast. You will get to explore this fascinating reserve, observing penguins and many more species, before returning to your Puerto Madryn hotel.

In the morning you’ll transfer to the airport for your flight to El Calafate. On arrival you’ll be transferred to your hotel to settle in to the harsh climes of Patagonia proper.

Follow the shores of Lago Argentino until you reach the entrance of Perito Moreno National Park. After a brief orientation, you are free to explore the footpaths overlooking and surrounding the Perito Moreno Glacier. In the afternoon you will board a catamaran to view the glacier's majesty from the water, to better appreciate the sounds and movements of this living piece of ice.

Today you'll visit another, more remote glacier. Your adventure starts with a beautiful boat ride across the lake and up the Cristina Canal, giving you great views of the Upsala Glacier. Then travel in all-terrain vehicles across the steppe to a glacial lookout right above Upsala. Enjoy lunch at Estancia Cristina and learn about the life of a Patagonian gaucho on a tour of the on-site museum before returning to El Calafate.

Enjoy a final hearty breakfast in this remarkable region before meeting your airport transfer for your flight to Buenos Aires where you’ll connect to your international departure.
