Top Argentina Nature Parks

Venture into the wild Argentinian pampas and experience 'gaucho' (cowboy) life on a traditional 'estancia' (ranch) on this full-day tour from Buenos Aires, including lunch. Saddle up for a horseback ride and visit the country town of San Antonio de Areco, enjoy a folklore show and tuck into a barbecue lunch, while the gauchos entertain you with tales of estancia life.

Visit two of the best natural parks in the province of Misiones today, when you cruise along the Uruguay River to the waterfalls of Mocona in Encanto Provincial Park. You and your small group will get to explore the trails around two areas with waterfalls and see some beautifully preserved nature along the way. You'll be able to get out and walk around all the different heights of this long expanse of rushing waterfalls.

Travel to Tierra del Fuego National Park aboard the heritage End of the World train for a scenic and historical trip to Argentina’s only coastal national park. The rail line follows the route of the original convict train that ran in Ushuaia from 1910 to 1947. Learn about the history of the region as you take in a remote landscape dotted with rivers, waterfalls, forest and mountains. Have the option to remain for the day or longer when you reach the National Park station, or return on the same day.

Get more out of your time in Mendoza by setting off on a horseback riding adventure near the Andes Mountains. Opting for a horseback riding tour allows you to cover more ground than a hiking tour and explore mountainous off-road trails with ease. During the tour, stay energized with a range of tasty treats—including pastries, an “asado” barbecue, dessert, and local wine.

Ride alongside the Rio Mendoza during a 1.5-hour tour on horseback. This midday excursion gives you a glimpse of southern Maipu you might otherwise miss, including rolling vineyards, olive groves, and leafy country lanes. Follow up with a gourmet “asado” (Argentine barbecue) at Divina Marga restaurant and wine cellar. Passengers are limited to eight to ensure a small-group experience, including the convenience of minivan transport from your hotel.
