ITINERARY IN DETAIL
The architecture, the tango, the history, the football, the hustle and bustle, the food and the cosmopolitan mix of people all combine to make this one of the most intoxicating cities in Latin America.
The vast region of Ibera National Park is often overlooked by visitors to Argentina who are all missing something quite spectacular. An incredibly biodiverse region that rivals Brazil’s more famous pantanal, it is home to some incredible species from capybara playing in the shallows to jaguar and caiman out hunting.
You will stay at the northern tip of the park on the banks of the Rio Paraná from where you can explore the national park with highly experienced guides.
Made famous by Robert de Niro and Jeremy Irons in the epic “The Mission” (complete with Enio Morricone’s haunting soundtrack), the Jesuit ruins at San Ignacio tell the story of the proseltsation of the indigenous people of northern Argentina. It’s an incredible tale and brought to life by the sheer scale of the ruins left behind.
One of the most spectacular sights, and sounds, in the world where up to 450,000 cubic feet of water tumbles over the edge each second the Iguacu Falls are truly unforgettable. You will have time to take in the panoramic views from the Brazilian side as well as diving into the jungle and exploring the falls close up on the Argentine side.
Few cities are as iconic as Rio de Janeiro. Images of beaches, beautiful people, samba, Corcovado and Sugar Loaf instantly spring to mind and the reality definitely does not disappoint. Exploring with one of our handpicked guides allows you to adapt the experience to really get under the skin of the city and see what you want to see.
End the trip in the vibrant beach town of Paraty with white sand beaches, samba music, colour everywhere and perhaps the best caipirinhas in Brazil.
Nothing but the best. On this suggested Brazilian itinerary these are our handpicked, tried-and-tested choices.
Testimonials
Six of us enjoyed a very well organised trip to Argentina. We visited four locations over 12 days, so lots of logistics, but everything worked out incredibly well, thanks to cazenove+loyd. We especially loved our local guides and our 10-mile hike in stunning Patagonia on Christmas Day. Thank you, you helped us create memories to last a lifetime.
We got back from Argentina on Sunday and I just wanted to send a quick email to say thank you. The trip you planned for us was wonderful! I am particularly grateful for our time at Aguas Arriba Lodge. It was such a special place. There’s really nothing that could have prepared us for the extraordinary beauty of the area or the warmth of the people. I know we had originally been concerned that we had scheduled too much time there, but it was magical and clearly the highlight of our visit to Patagonia. Whenever we’re ready for our next adventure, we know now that we can count on you to plan something that’s just right for us.
We were impressed with the efficiency and warmth of the team in both Chile and Argentina. It was a blessing to have the Chile-Argentina border crossing handled by cazenove+loyd: we made it across much faster than other travellers. All the places we stayed were great, and the guides, too.
Our trip to Patagonia and Buenos Aires was spectacular. We experienced what felt like the far reaches of the Earth – the most breathtaking glaciers, peaks and waterfalls, and weather that changed in an instant, including the most powerful winds; not to mention killer views from every direction. Our accommodation was wonderful – all beautiful and quite different from one another. And everywhere we went, we were treated so well. An adventure we will not soon forget.
