Outdoor Argentina -
Active vacation sugges-
tions for those who want to combine a trip to
Buenos Aires with vigorous outdoor activities.
Skiing, hiking, trekking, fishing and mountain-
eering are all readily available and well-
organized. Here too we've included visits to
Argentina's unique
estancias
, where you can
watch the
gauchos
at work, enjoy a typical
asado
(roast meat) and even learn how to play
polo.
Travel Within Argentina
Traveling between Argentina's principal cities
and attractions is easy. One option is to take
advantage of the
Argentina Pass
offered by
Aerolíneas Argentinas
(described on page 3).
Aerolíneas has flights to all of the destinations
we've covered, as well as additional cities in
Argentina and throughout South America.
Argentinia is a
big country.
Checktravel
times carefully
before finalizing
your itinerary.
Land travel is also fairly straightforward.
National routes (not to be confused with US
Interstates) link major, and not so major, cities.
You can travel virtually anywhere by bus, or
rent a car. Bus travel in Argentina is via motor
coach and very comfortable.
Tip
Though land travel takes more time
than flying, you get to see more of Ar-
gentina. If you do have some time to
play with, mixing air and land travel is
a great way to see the country.
