About us

Argentina is the eighth-largest country on earth. The distance from Ushuaia to the Iguazu Falls is roughly the same as London to Cairo. Planning a trip here means grappling with scale — and with a country whose economy, transport network, and regional character vary enormously from province to province.

The Argentina Guide was built to address that complexity head on. We write detailed, location-specific guides that account for real distances, actual bus schedules, and the particular way Argentina operates.

Trekking and the outdoors

Patagonia alone could fill an entire site. Fitz Roy, Perito Moreno, the Lakes District, Torres del Paine day trips from El Calafate — we cover the major trekking routes with trail specifics, gear notes, and seasonal conditions. Further north, the wine country around Mendoza and the red desert of Quebrada de Humahuaca offer completely different landscapes worth just as much attention.

Buenos Aires and urban Argentina

Buenos Aires is not just a stopover. The city's neighbourhoods each have a distinct character — from the bookshops of San Telmo to the design studios of Palermo. We write about the capital as a destination in its own right, including food, nightlife, and the tango scene without resorting to cliches about passion and steak.

Wine regions

Mendoza gets the headlines, but Argentina's wine map extends to Cafayate in the northwest, the high-altitude vineyards of the Calchaqui Valley, and Patagonian wineries around Neuquen. We cover tastings, logistics, and which bodegas are worth the visit.
