Argentina runs the length of southern South America, from subtropical falls in the north through the pampas grasslands to the wild peaks and glaciers of Patagonia in the far south.

Argentina has its own seasonal rhythm, and choosing the right time of year makes a real difference to your trip.

The best time to visit depends on the region: October to April for Patagonia, spring and autumn for Buenos Aires and the wine country, and the reversed seasons mean summer runs December to February.

Argentina is passionate and European-influenced, the land of tango, football, asado barbecue and a proud cafe and literary culture centred on Buenos Aires.

Rules change from time to time, so always confirm the current requirement for your own passport before booking. If you travel with us, we will guide you through exactly what you need.

A little courtesy goes a long way in Argentina. Keep valuables secure in cities, dine late as locals do, and carry cash as card use and currency can be complex.

Do respect local traditions, carry small change for tips and markets, and stay hydrated. Don't drink tap water unless it is confirmed safe, flash valuables in crowded areas, or over-pack your schedule — the best trips here are unhurried ones.
