Comprising almost the entire southern half of South America, Argentina is the world's eighth largest country and the diversity of the land ranges from wild and rugged, to remote in southern Patagonia, to the bustling metropolis of Buenos Aires in the north.
You can find some of the world's tallest mountains and volcanoes, including Aconcagua, one of the 7 highest mountains on the 7 continents. There are expansive deserts, endless plains of the pampas, fast-flowing rivers and even the deep and blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
The thundering Iguazu Falls is also one of Argentina's prized possessions.
Argentina’s culture is heavily influenced by Italian and Spanish roots, which gives it a very European flare.
Adventure opportunities abound in this South American country by the sea.
