Patagonia Argentina spans the lake district, glacier district, coast and Tierra del Fuego. This Argentina family adventure tour takes you to two of Patagonia’s top areas – El Calafate to experience a working ranch where kids can participate in daily activities and adults can enjoy top service, and Peninsula Valdes for amazing wildlife where kids can get up close to curious penguins and baby seals.

Begin your trip in Buenos Aires, where you’ll have a chance to explore the city, and kayak on the Tigre River Delta just outside the city. Continue south to El Calafate, home to the famed Perito Moreno Glacier. You’ll stay at a working estancia where you can enjoy endless vistas, participate in daily ranch activities, horseback ride, hike, and even go trekking on the glacier!

After a few days in El Calafate, head to the Atlantic coast, to the Peninsula Valdes area. Here you’ll stay at Estancia Pedral, on Punta Ninfas. This historic home was brought over from France in the 1920s, and has a prime location for wildlife viewing and other activities. The ranch offers boat expeditions to see whales, 4-wheeling, hiking and more! On your last day you’ll visit Punta Tombo, the largest Magellanic penguin colony in the world, where you can get up close and personal with charming penguins.

After a few days exploring the cosmopolitan tango capital of Buenos Aires and learning more about the history of this dynamic city, the journey sets off North to the mountainous terrain of the Salta wine region, dazzling travelers with its bizarre geological formation, expansive valleys, subtropical forests and salt plains. Salta city, the gateway to the wine region, is the first stop, welcoming travelers with an impressive central plaza dotted with colonial architecture, local restaurants and museums. A visit to one of Salta’s traditional peña(or pub), where tourist and locals alike mingle and the more daring dance to the traditional folklore music, shouldn’t be missed.
