A breathtaking tour of Argentina and Brazil, with excursions to Los Glaciares National Park, Iguazú Falls, Christ the Redeemer, plus all travel

Day 1: UK/Ireland - overnight flight

Are you set to explore the treasures of South America? Your epic adventure starts full of excitement at your home airport, ready for your overnight-flight to Buenos Aires.

Day 2-4: Buenos Aires

Touch down in Buenos Aires, Argentina’s vibrant capital. After checking into your hotel you can immediately start exploring this mesmerising metropolis that seamlessly blends colonial architecture with Latino flair. There’s so much to keep you occupied here, from lively Recoleta, whose arty cemetery is filled with famous mausoleums, to the colourful clapboard houses of Camino in La Boca. Don’t miss out on sampling the local delights – dulce de leche and empanadas are not to be missed – and spending an afternoon in Plaza Dorrego to watch the locals tangoing the day away.

On day three you’ll get to go on a guided tour of the city, where you’ll admire and learn about all of the Buenos Aires’ most emblematic sights, such as the Plaza de Mayo, the picturesque district of La Boca, the Obelisk representing the symbol of the Argentine capital, and the Casa Rosada (where Madonna performed her 1996 hit Don’t Cry for Me Argentina). In the evening you can opt to have dinner with a traditional tango show, ahead of the fourth day, which is yours to spend as you please with another optional dinner and fogón asado experience.

Day 5: Buenos Aires - El Calafate

After a hearty breakfast at the hotel you’ll transfer to the airport and fly to El Calafate – a town near Patagonia’s Ice Field and the Los Glaciares National Park. Spoilers: you’ll get to wonder at this spectacle with a full-day excursion the very next day. After arriving at your hotel the rest of the day is yours to spend at your leisure.

Day 6-7: El Calafate

Another day, another glimpse into the majestic scenery of South America. You’ll journey to the Los Glaciares National Park (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) after breakfast and see the Patagonia Ice Field, including its most famous natural phenomenon, the Perito Moreno Glacier. You’re going to get to see this glacier up close with a boat ride on Lake Rico, before returning to El Calafate.

You have the whole of the next day to yourself in El Calafate, so make the most of the biblically beautiful landscapes while you’re there.

Day 8: El Calafate - Iguazú

You’ll leave El Calafate after breakfast and fly to Iguazú. After arriving at your hotel you can take advantage of the jungle on your doorstep straight away, or just relax in your new digs.

Day 9-10: Iguazú

It’s time to leave the city life behind for a few days and reconnect with nature by visiting the mighty Iguazú Falls. Home to over 230 cascading waterfalls, Iguazú is one of the mightiest waterfalls in the world, being much taller than Niagara Falls and twice as wide. Over the course of three days, you’ll visit both the Argentinian and Brazilian sides of the waterfall, taking a train to the ‘Devil’s Throat’, where you can watch the water spill over the side of an 80-metre-high drop. There’s also an optional ‘Iguazú Great Adventure tour’ that involves hiking in the Yacaratiá jungle, sailing into the Lower Iguazú River, reaching the Tres Mosqueteros Falls and coming face-to-face with the San Martín waterfall, which makes up the largest waterfall system in the world.

Day 11: Iguazú - Rio de Janeiro

It’s time to bid farewell to Iguaza and fly to one of the world’s most iconic cities – Rio de Janeiro. If you can’t contain your excitement after arriving at your hotel, step out and head to Copacabana or Ipanema, both beautiful beaches that are so much more than the synonymous songs that honour them.

Day 12-14 Rio de Janeiro

You might have sampled a flavour of Brazil in Iguazú, but now it’s time to truly immerse yourself with three colourful nights in Rio, Brazil’s party capital and most well-known city. From the beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema to the mighty Cristo Redentor, Rio’s offerings have been splashed about on postcards for all to see. During your stay here, a city tour will take you to see the magnificent statue that presides over the city, as well as the famous Selaron Steps, where tiles from every country around the world have been donated to make a technicolour mural. We’d also recommend adding a tour to Sugarloaf Mountain to your escape, and take the cable car up to the pair of loaf-like mountains that afford views over Ipanema and Copacabana. After three samba-filled nights in Rio, it’ll sadly be time to leave your epic South America adventure behind and return back home.
