With this very special journey, we invite you to discover the heart of Argentina and Chile, travelling from coast to coast, to experience the culture of these two wonderful countries. You will have the opportunity to visit Buenos Aires, the cosmopolitan capital of Argentina, famous for its tango culture and Italian lifestyle, but also the Argentine countryside, where the horse riding gauchos watching the enormous cattle herds seem to belong to another century. The border crossing near Mendoza, the wine capital of the Americas and the view of the Aconcagua, Argentina's highest summit, are truly worth the trip. Santiago de Chile combines a modern life-style with traditions from the Pacific islands. The trip will end with a relaxing day and a dip in the Pacific Ocean at Valparaiso, Chile's main beach resort.
Tour Highlights:
Buenos Aires City Tour: Visit all the main highlights of Argentina's capital city, from La Boca to the obelisk, from the Casa Rosada to Eva Peron's grave, and of course, enjoy an authentic Tango show.
