Argentine : When to go ?

Argentina is located in the southern hemisphere; consequently, the seasons are inverted in comparison with Europe. Our summer corresponds to winter and vice versa. Spring runs from late September to late December, summer until end of March, autumn until end June and winter runs from late June to late September. You can visit Argentina all year round, but depending on the regions, one season or another can make your stay more pleasant. Attention to the Semana Santa before Easter, holiday throughout Latin America. It is better to book early if you travel this week. Think of the religious processions of Tilcara in the Quebrada of Humahuaca (Northwest) that are spectacular during that week.In Mesopotamia and Misiones, rainfall is constant (more important from December to March), but summer is particularly hot. Winter (especially in July) is the best season to visit the Iguazú falls. It is also high season and rates are felt.In the Northwest, temperatures at more than 40 ° C, the summer may be daunting. The high season is in July. The wet season is between November and March (Andean Winter).Buenos Aires and La Pampa are shallow rainy and have a moderate climate (although humid in the capital and on the coast). The average temperature is appreciable, but the months of January or February may sometimes be unbearable due to humidity.As far as Patagonia is concerned, you will never lose heat! The ideal time to get there is the summer. You will enjoy warmer temperatures (sometimes 15 ° C) and long days, but you have to provide hot clothing because time changes very quickly and winds are mostly very violent. The month of January corresponds to the great Argentine holidays; if you go there, consider making your accommodation reservations (indispensable in Bariloche). If you want to go to Patagonia Atlantic, remember that Puerto Madryn whales are watching July in mid-December. The patagon winter is not as rigorous as one can imagine from Europe (relative to it!) and may be the opportunity to go skiing in the lakes region.

Argentine : Go with a local agency

Some exceptional landscapesThe vastness and beauty of the landscapes attracts more than one tourist in Argentina. The nature is superb, wild, indomptée... and diversified.A mosaic peopleAs the correct word says: Mexicans are descended from Aztecs, Peruvians from the Incas and Argentins... from the boat. Nevertheless, métissage is fascinating. The country has a strong identity, and each has very diverse origins: historically Spanish, Amerindian and descendants of enslaved Africans, but also since the th century Italians, Syria, Lebanon, German, French, British, Polish, Russian or Asian.Good dearArgentina has a reputation to defend: that of the country where the best meat in the world is eaten, because the horse is high on large meadows. It's true that it's delicious, and that carnivores will give it to joy, de of lomo (very thick and tender net) or de of sausage (cuit cooked in its own fat). Not to mention good Argentinian wines! By organising your stay on-line with a local agency, you are sure to enjoy fine breakfasts in the country's best restaurants.The tangoThe pearl of the Río de la Plata! Obviously, it is one of Buenos Aires's tourist attractions. The tango will seduce you with its equivocal sensuality, its poignant pride, and its indissoluble melancholy, which is so characteristic of the Argentine people. By organizing your trip with a local agency, you can attend the finest tango shows in the country.Since the devaluation of the peso (or rather the end of parity with the dollar) in 2002, the country has become cheap, which has contributed to the influx of foreign tourists. Food in particular has become more accessible and a good bill. Generally speaking, however, there has been widespread practice of double pricing for Argentins and tourists, particularly in national parks or some superior-class hotels. Moreover, prices have increased significantly in recent years on tourist activities (excursions...), and inflation is a real scourge, of almost 30% per year.FormalitésIn order to return to Argentine territory, nationals of the European Community do not need a visa. You must present a valid passport (still valid for six months, at the date of travel) on your flight. A stay permit of up to three months will then be mentioned by a buffer on your passport (it is free).To renew your residence permit, it is much easier to leave the country to return again (a new buffer for three months). The most common is to return to Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay. If you visit the region of Mendoza, Patagonia or the Iguazú Falls, you will also have the opportunity to travel from the Chilean or Brazilian side. So far, the number of entries and exits of the country is not limited.
