Travel Blogs from Argentina
Good news - global recession is coming.
This is a top pick! Well, I know this is supposed to be a travel blog, but right now, I am incapable of writing about my travel adventures - they seem boring. All the action seems to be now in the markets. I have not read news in a major way ever since I handed my ...
Surviving siesta in Salta
This is a top pick! ... chance to see the city. We caught an Andesmar bus...21 hours!!!....overnight, to the colonial city of Salta in northern Argentina. We liked Salta immediately. It has beautiful squares with tall, swaying palm trees, cobbled streets, ornate churches, cafes ...
Last stop Argentina
This is a top pick! ... Argentinas". We got the next bus to Salta. It was double the price quoted in the Lonely Planet. Apparently inflation is ridiculous in Argentina. Must be as the book is only a year old! It didn’t take long to notice the incredible difference in the ...
Xmas Greetings - Backpacker Style!
This is a top pick! Hiya friends and family, just wanted to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and all the very best to you and yours in the New Year. While Buenos Aires in the sunshine doesn't exactly spell white Christmas with the family...we're doing what we can! Will ...
Funny looking hill.
This is a top pick! On bumpy Patagonian gravel roads, I have made my way about four hours north of El Calafate, to the tiny village of El Chaltén. I am here to do a few day hikes and hopefully get a glimpse of Cerro Fitz Roy. From El Chaltén I hoped to continue north for ...
My katzenjammer with the Million Dollar Baby.
This is a top pick! ... Admiring a spectacular mountain in Chile, walking around a famous city in Nicaragua, spending 50 hours on a Marco Polo bus in Argentina, eating a ceviche or calafate berry ice cream, snapping a photo, looking lost on a street corner in Boa Vista, talking ...
Big smelly city
This is a top pick! ... -to-day activities, is back home in London. Which means I can't really remember what I got up to during my week in Argentina's massive capital, never mind how I felt. Que problema. However, you are probably relieved as it means it will make for a nice ...
Chilling in Salta
This is a top pick! Had a lie in this morning before reluctantly getting up for breakfast. Then wandered around a pretty quiet Salta as everything seems to shut today. Eventually found internet to do a mammoth blog update and check up on next bits of our trip, insurance ...
The end of the world
This is a top pick! A few days in Ushuaia, which is the southernmost city in the world. There's actually a Chilean naval settlement of a couple of thousand people on the the other side of the beagle channel, but presumably that doesn't count!! The flight here was amazing, ...
A short stop in Posadas
This is a top pick! Alex: What a nightmare. The Posadas itself is really nice little town but we just had loads of problems. We arrived at about 17.30 and had a quick look around the bus terminal for buses to Buenos Aires and as there were loads didn't think we would have a ...
The only corner in town
This is a top pick! I want to start this entry with an apology - my map pins, showing each stop, are all over the place. My lovely map of Argentina looks more like I spilt the box of pins over it. I´d never make a General. Don´t ever put me in charge of an army. Today ...
Buenos Aires - shopping heaven for Alex!
This is a top pick! ... and delicious, the red wine is divine and the pasta is also fantastic. All in all we have really enjoyed Buenos Aires (and Argentina in general), it just has a really nice atmosphere, quite European but Latino at the same time. We are going to take a ...
A cultured excuse for a day on the drink
This is a top pick! ... over spent but to solve the issue £7 was worth it. We got back to the hostel and replenished our money supply on the way. We have loved Mendoza, what a great start to Argentina but we know this time that we are definitely leaving tomorrow ...
Mendoza - Day 22-23
This is a top pick! Day 22 - 28/01/09 We left Puente De Inca at 9am for the 3 hour ride back to Mendoza. Around an hour into the drive we were stopped by the Argentinean police and asked to produce our passports for inspection. The policeman looked like a 12 year old ...
The Glaciers
This is a top pick! ... better judgement we signed up to a much more comprehensive (and expensive) trip that would take us on a catamaran through Lake Argentina and up to the various glaciers. It was awesome. We soon came across icebergs (totally unexpectedly for us both), ...
blowing hot and cold
This is a top pick! ... and wind-swept scenery stretches out as far as the eye can see. And it's cold. El Calafate, on the shore of Lake Argentina, is the town from which to visit the famous 30km-long Perito Moreno Glacier. From a distance, the glacier looks like it's made ...
Iguazu
This is a top pick! ... . So, here`s the deal with Iguazu. Waterfalls, spectacular, kicks Niagra`s ass (apparently), bordering countries are Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay. There`s plenty of rivalry between the countries, mainly Brazil and Argentina, over which is the best ...
Lots and lots of water
This is a top pick! ... bags at the bus station we jumped on the local bus to Iguazu Falls a set of huge waterfalls part in paraguay, brazil and argentina. We rode through the jungle in a jeep scaring toucans, lizards and a million different types of butterfly to the waters edge ...
Bad news, good fun
This is a top pick! ... day (feeling very fragile) we were on a 20hr bus ride to Iguassu and the border with Brazil. We ll be back to do Argentina again properly, definately BA a lovely European style city that i didnt quite realise i d enjoy as much as i did. shops, european ...
Watch out for the thieves
This is a top pick! ... an issue but as our plans in Argentina include driving from Bariloche to Ushuaia this was a problem. Our whole plans in Argentina ruined because some prick thought he deserved out stuff. Eventually we realised there was nothing we could do and ...
Shit, where's the Spanish phrase book?
This is a top pick! ... the simplest Spanish. This could have something to do with the main sounds of Spanish being pronounced completely differently in Argentina. Even after starting school the blank stares and the crumpled faces continued, until we had got the pronunciation of ...
Back in Argentina
This is a top pick! The latest update finds us back in Argentina, having crossed the border from Chile last night, in a town called "28 de Noviembre" (yes, a rather bizarre name for a town, but a town it is). The last few days have been pretty tough. We spent a couple of ...
The time is ticking away....
This is a top pick! Tuesday May 24th 2005 Find a hostel thats makes me feel decidely old, but is otherwise OK, and again wander around this nice city - which is very lively and busy, but perhaps not so photogenic. Do pass a static demonstration re the Falkland Islands - ...
Our last trek (we think)
This is a top pick! We were a little slow in the morning….nights not sleeping properly on the rubbish mats we bought are taking their toll…. and weren't sure if we would be able to do the walk we had planned on after all. However it was such a gorgeous ...
Dozy in Mendoza
This is a top pick! ... even better than that!! It is without doubt the best steak I have ever tasted, (and it only got better as we travelled throughout Argentina). Beautiful. In fact (and this is not a lie) one of the Irish guys who we met, Pat from Scartaglin in Kerry, was ...
Bariloche
This is a top pick! On the advice of numerous other travellers, we headed to Patagonia from Buenos Aires. The most northerly part mind you, but chilly enough to get the idea! Patanuk Hostel is right on the lake and we realised pretty early on, the sunsets are ...
dont cry for me....
This is a top pick! ... and generally exercised the Homer Simpson philosophy of, "share the wealth". Cancer sadly took her life at 33. Left the museum singing "don´t cry for me Argentina". Uruguay, tomorrow, here we come! Cooper Out Love Dan and ...
