Reasons To
Visit Argentina

  • Estancias

    Argentina’s history of agriculture and in particular of rearing livestock has resulted in hundreds of estancias, or ranches, across the country that open their doors year round to visitors looking for a taste of the authentic cowboy life.

  • Iguazú Falls

    Straddling the Argentina and Brazil border it is the Argentine side that provides the opportunity for the detailed and close up views of some of the 276 waterfalls that make up Iguazú. The numerous vantage points and forested trails make for a wonderful experience of nature at her best.

  • Tango

    The Argentine tango originated in the working class quarters of Buenos Aires, brought to life by European immigrants whose diverse instruments, rhythms and steps came together to create what is today an enchanting and hypnotic dance enjoyed across the country.

Climate data provided by Weather2Travel.com

Most of Argentina has seasons that are the opposite of the northern hemisphere’s, but as you would expect in a country of this size, distinct regions have climates all of their own. Buenos Aires is hot in summer (November to April) and mild in winter.

The Lake District is pretty in spring (October) and autumn (March) and fresher in these months than during the height of summer. Part of Patagonia’s charm is its unpredictability, and you should be prepared for four seasons in one day.

In the far south of Patagonia however, weather conditions can be severe during winter months, so we would discourage you from visiting in June, July or August. The arid northwestern region can be very hot during the summer (December to February), while Mendoza province is temperate year-round.

The time of year to travel will depend largely on the areas you wish to visit.
