Argentina
What a country! Argentine encapsulates in its length the incredible Iguazu Falls to the north, the land of the gauchos in the pampas mid-country, the stunning wild landscapes of Patagonia including Mount Fitzroy to the south and at its very tip, the evocative region of Tierra del Fuego, the launch point for our Antarctic cruises. It also contains Mount Aconcagua, the highest peak outside the Himalayas, some superb vineyards and of course the vibrant cosmopolitan capital of Buenos Aires.
