Trip to Iguazu Falls

Located in the sub-tropical forest on the border with Brazil, the Iguazu falls are breathtakingly enchanting, and are a candidate for the new 7 natural wonders of the world. We travel by land and stay in shared rooms. This trip also includes a guided visit to the National Park and a boat ride under the falls!

Trip to Uruguay: Montevideo and Colonia

Travelling by ferry to either Colonia or Montevideo (or both), we often visit one of the smaller countries in South America (and the other land of the tango) - Uruguay.  This is a day excursion and includes a guided tour of the city, luch and ferry transportation.

Trip to a Gaucho Ranch in the Pampas

These trips to the Pampas area always a blast - good food, empanadas, asado and vino, horseback riding, gaucho stunts and shows, more good food and more wine. The gaucho ranch (estancia) is located approx 1 hour away from downtown Buenos Aires. You can't miss it!

Trip to El Tigre Island

El Tigre island - where many of the streets are rivers and the cars are boats.  It's a great place to get away for a bit from the bustle of Buenos Aires.  We visit a crafts market, take a boat trip, picnic for lunch, and enjoy the old homes and laid back ambience of this historic place north of Buenos Aires.
