Family trip through northern Argentina
The Salta area at the foot of the Andes is one of the most spectacular areas of Argentina. The pleasant city of Salta is an absolute jewel of ancient Argentina. Marvel also at the diverse landscapes north and south of the city, with remarkable rock formations and spectacular gorges. Visit the famous wine regions of Cafayate where the white Torrontès wines come from and be surprised by the high plains with colonial towns where time seems to have stood still. A short flight takes you to the tropical north where you can admire the mighty waterfalls of Iguazú . A visit to the wildlife paradise of the Iberá wetlands will conclude your trip.
Tips & Tops Round Trip Extremes of Northern Argentina:
- The combination of nature, action and relaxation makes this trip great for a summer vacation with children ages 8 and up.
