Visit the magnificent Iguazú Falls. Buenos Aires and its tango. Colonial Salta and its red canyons. The Malbec wineries of Mendoza. And Patagonia, from the peaks of Fitz Roy to the Perito Moreno Glacier, and all the way down to Tierra del Fuego. Discover Argentina with Travelfab. Argentina is a vast country, so short flights link its great regions. Your journey begins in Buenos Aires. Wander past the painted houses of La Boca, the grand tombs of Recoleta, where Evita lies, and the Pink House on the Plaza de Mayo. And of course, the tango. Fly north to Iguazú, where around 275 waterfalls stretch nearly three times the width of Niagara. See them from both sides of the border: the great panorama from Brazil, then the walkways of Argentina, right to the edge of the Devil's Throat. Then fly to the far south, to Ushuaia, known as the end of the world. From here, a boat along the Beagle Channel takes you past sea lions, seabirds and a lonely lighthouse. From El Calafate, stand face to face with the Perito Moreno glacier, and listen for the ice as it cracks and falls into the lake. Or pull on your boots, and walk through Patagonia beneath the granite towers of Fitz Roy. The north is a different Argentina. From colonial Salta, drive up the Quebrada de Humahuaca, past the Hill of Seven Colours, to Andean villages high in the mountains. Then follow the red rock canyons south to Cafayate, where the bodegas make Torrontés, the local white wine. And just across the River Plate, Uruguay is one short ferry ride away. Stroll the cobbled streets of Colonia del Sacramento, then carry on to Montevideo, with its grand Independence Square, the long riverside Rambla, and the stadium built for the very first World Cup. Short flights between the regions, local guides along the way, and flights from London included, with ATOL protection. And because your Argentina holiday is tailor-made, it can take any shape you like: the wine country of Mendoza, more time in Patagonia, or Buenos Aires and Uruguay on their own. Your own dates, your own pace. Tell us what you have in mind, and a Latin America specialist will plan it around you. Plan your Argentina holiday at travelfab.co.uk.

From travellers who visited Argentina with us
I travelled solo through Argentina for ten days and felt completely safe and well looked after the whole time. The estancia stay in the Pampas was magical, horse riding, asado under the stars, total peace. Buenos Aires is electric by contrast. Travelfab arranged a brilliant local guide for the Recoleta Cemetery tour who brought the history to life.
Fiona D.
Did two weeks covering Buenos Aires, Mendoza wine country, and Iguazú Falls. The wine tasting in the Uco Valley was a highlight, much more intimate than Napa or Bordeaux. Iguazú is genuinely one of the most spectacular things I've seen. My only minor note is that internal flights can be a bit unpredictable timing-wise, but Fabian had built buffer days into the plan which was smart.
Oliver N.
Argentina exceeded every expectation. Buenos Aires had us hooked from the first evening, the tango show in San Telmo, steak at a proper parrilla in Palermo, and wandering the colourful streets of La Boca. Then Patagonia was on another level entirely. Standing at the edge of Perito Moreno glacier watching house-sized chunks of ice calving off is something I'll never forget. Travelfab's itinerary pacing was spot on.
