Depart from the USA for the honeymoon of your dreams in Argentina!  Upon arrival in Buenos Aires on December 22, 2014, you will be greeted at Ezeiza International Airport by an experienced guide who is just waiting to introduce you to one of the world's most exciting cities. A private vehicle will transfer you to your selected hotel for your early check-in. The morning and afternoon will be free to rest and recover from your flight in style.     

Rising suddenly and dramatically out of the interminable flatness of the Pampas, Buenos Aires is a teeming, throbbing cosmopolitan city with a unique mix of European, North American, and South American elements. It is one of the world’s great ports, the home of every third Argentine, and an increasingly popular travel destination. The soul of the city bears an irresistible allure to Argentines and visitors alike, its parks, cafés, streets, theatres, museums, markets, restaurants- and its homes- the elegant, the chic, the eccentric, the everyday.

After breakfast, you'll visit the most important sites of this triumph of a city. The magnificence of the Northern Quarters, Palermo and the beauty of its parks and buildings, Recoleta with its French-style architecture, bars and cafes; the imposing Colon Theater, one of the five most important opera houses in the world; Plaza de Mayo surrounded by Government House (The Pink House), The Old Cabildo (Town Hall) and the Metropolitan Cathedral; San Telmo, residence of the aristocracy until the turn of the XIX century. The colors of La Boca, picturesque quarter of Italian immigrants; and the fashion area of Puerto Madero with its many chic bars & restaurants round off this heady excursion.

Buenos Aires' nightlife provides the local porteños and its ever-growing swarm of visitors with a seemingly endless array of quality entertainment options. Just as an example: this evening you'll be blown away by an unforgettable tango show performed by the best dancers and singers of this seductive genre, while tucking into a dinner no less seductive. This is the way one ought to live Buenos Aires, the city of tango. After the show has dazzled you sufficiently, you will be transferred back to your comfy hotel. [B,D]

This half day tour explores the nearby city of Tigre and the new landscapes of the Delta of the Parana River. Departing from Buenos Aires we head north, stopping en route in the town of San Isidro to visit its wonderful cathedral. Upon reaching Tigre we take a boat cruise to discover the Delta of the Paraná - An exotic subtropical forest formed by thousands of small islands that can only be reached by water. During the boat ride, you will see exclusive yacht clubs as well as extravagant housing and mansions on the slopes facing the La Plata River. On the return to Buenos Aires you will pass the Port of Olivos, the northern residential area of Buenos Aires, where the President's Main House is located, the “Monumental” (stadium of River Plate football club), the University Campus of Buenos Aires, and the local airport to see planes landing and taking off.  [B,L]

This morning you'll be making an early departure from your hotel to the airport to board your flight down to Ushuaia, the world's southernmost city. Upon arrival, you will be greeted at the airport by a friendly and experienced guide, who'll transfer you to your chosen hotel in their private vehicle, and then help you and the city become friends. Your afternoon will be spent at your leisure to walk around as you will. A couple of good hints would be to make your way to the End of the World Museum, and/or the Old Penitentiary Museum. Make sure to enjoy the typical dish at these latitudes: the ridiculously delicious king crab. [B]

This morning you'll visit the Tierra del Fuego National Park, the only one in the country with a maritime coast. Within its 63,000 hectares, you will find fire-bushes, beech trees, ñires, box-leafed barberries and endless profusions of flowers such as orchids, violets and other species. Bordering the mountains, you'll follow a road where you'll come across both peat bogs and beaver dams. After crossing the Lapataia River, a magnificent view of Laguna Verde (Green Lagoon) and the upland geese and ibis that come here every summer will present themselves to your astonished eyes. A walk along the path up to Laguna Negra (Black Lagoon) or the Beavers' Path will be suggested at that point - your camera will be amply rewarded if you take either of these up. At Lapataia Bay, you'll witness the testimony of the original inhabitants of the Island (the Yamanas) at a fascinating archaeological site: the "concheros". On the way back to Ushuaia, you will make a brief stop at Lake Roca, whose color varies according to the weather. You may be a little fatigued from all this wonder, so you'll have the afternoon free to do as you please. In the afternoon  sail along the Beagle Channel and visit Seal and Bird Islands, the penguin rockery and Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse will certainly fit the bill a fair sight more than nicely. [B]

This morning you'll fly off from Ushuaia airport to El Calafate, gateway to The Glaciers National Park.  Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by your experienced guide who knows all about this cozy little Patagonian village huddled on the shore of Lake Argentino. Your guide will make your transfer to your hotel a Patagonian breeze. [B]

Argentina isn't short on natural beauty, but today, you'll get to see one of the most irrefutably beautiful:  the Perito Moreno Glacier.  You'll have very little inclination to argue with UNESCO's decision to dub this a World Natural Heritage Site way back in 1981. Arriving at the Glaciers' balconies, you'll get to spend 4 or so hours walking along the various pathways to drink in its glory from different angles. Gorgeously framed by dramatic mountains, lakes and forests, the Perito Moreno Glacier is one of the most spectacular scenes going around. It owes its fame to its continuous movement, which produces a cyclical phenomenon of advance and backward motion, causing awe-inspiring periods of ice-toppling. You won't believe your eyes, so make sure you take plenty of photos! [B]

After breakfast at the hotel, transfer to the pier.  The tour begins at “Punta Banderas” Port, a distant 47km from El Calafate, where comfortable boats depart, sailing the Argentino Lake towards the Upsala Glacier, the largest in surface of the continental ice-field.  After crossing “Boca del Diablo”, the narrowest section of the lake, natural gateway to the Northern Canal, the route takes to the west, and while the scenery becomes forest and high mountains with hanging glaciers, the ship will sail amongst huge icebergs, testimony of the regression process of Upsala glacier, till reaching its extended front.  Then, the ship resumes its course and enters to the Spegazzini Canal, where the highest glacier of the national park reigns, and where walls reach 130 meters high and 25km long.  Finally, the Northern Canal leads to the port, where people will disembark, returning to El Calafate.  Depending on weather conditions, the several huge icebergs calved off from Upsala Glacier, could form an amazing and large ice barrier which occasionally prevents the entry and/or approaching and/or descent to some points on the tour for safety reasons, a situation that will be evaluated daily on board.  [B]

Today, your flight will take you to San Carlos de Bariloche, where you'll be greeted by yet another experienced guide for this charming Alpine-style city resting on the shores of Lake Nahuel Huapi. You'll then check in to your hotel. Bariloche's deep blue lakes, towering mountains, glaciers and virgin forests make it an incomparable honeymoon destination. The scenery alone will leave you breathless. You'll have the afternoon and evening all to yourself to stroll by the lake, explore the city and get tempted by its many chocolate factories! [B]

Northern Patagonia is the region which hosts the lake district and world-famous national parks. Today, you'll visit the Nahuel Huapi National Park. Why, you ask? Well, once you get a glimpse of its uniquely stunning landscape of lakes and snow-capped mountains, you'll forget any doubts you may have been holding. What's more, you'll come across an amazing native forest of beautiful copper-colored autumn leaves standing by crystal-clear waters of the lake. This tour starts at Bustillo Avenue, bordering Lake Nahuel Huapi, to visit Playa Bonita, Mount Campanario (chair lift is optional), San Pedro Peninsula, Llao Llao Peninsula and Saint Edward's Chapel, and Port Pañuelo. The journey continues across the Angostura Bridge over the stream linking the Moreno & Nahuel Huapi Lakes, Bahia Lopez and El Trebol Lagoon. You will then find yourself at Panoramic Point, a natural balcony over Moreno Lake and Llao Llao Peninsula. The secret's in the name really: this location offers rather magnificent views of the lakes and surrounding mountain ranges.  [B]

Enjoy breakfast,  and later transfer to the airport for your flight home with a heart full of amazing honeymoon memories! [B]
