Experience the power of Patagonia
Covering most of southern South America,

west to the terraced plains of Argentina.
Home to freshwater lakes, vast icefields
and glaciers, explore the diverse, rugged
landscape and see an array of wildlife.

the famous malbec and tempranillo wines,
meeting some of the world’s finest winemakers
as you go.
Learn to ride like a gaucho
Amongst the most skilled horse riders in
South America, the resilient gauchos are
passionate about their land and lifestyle.
There are a variety of options for learning to
ride with them from the plains of Patagonia,
the hills of Cordoba, to the base of the Andes
or the desert itself.
Take a tango class
As the saying goes, it takes two to tango and
where better to learn the basics than its very
birthplace in Buenos Aires? From humble
beginnings to high-class ballrooms, learn
about the rhythmic and passionate dance
from two professionals before visiting a
local milonga club to show off your moves.

11-room hotel is in the trendy Palermo Viejo.
The hotel does not have its own restaurant, but
there is plenty of choice in the vicinity.
Awasi Iguazú
A short drive from the world’s largest
waterfalls, the luxury lodge’s 14 villas enjoy
a private and secluded position. Each villa
features a spacious living area, outdoor shower
and private plunge pool. Get up close with the
local wildlife with the help of your own private
guide and 4x4.
Estancia Los Potreros
A family-run estancia off the beaten track in
Sierras Chicas. Limited to 12 guests at a time,
