Argentina cruises: A guide to choosing the right one

A cruise to Argentina takes you from a sophisticated capital to a true sense of the end of the world: Buenos Aires' docks, San Telmo's cafés, whales near Puerto Madryn, and the cold mountains of Ushuaia and the Beagle Channel.

The journey combines tango, parrillas, marine wildlife, wide-open Patagonian landscapes, Atlantic ports, and southern voyages to Tierra del Fuego, Cape Horn, or Antarctica, depending on the itinerary. It is a destination of striking contrasts, blending culture, seafaring, wildlife, and at times a true expedition experience.

Highlights of an Argentina cruise

Begin in Buenos Aires with San Telmo, tango, and a parrilla

Buenos Aires remains one of the best starting points for an Argentina cruise. Travelers enjoy going from San Telmo's historic streets to a meal at a parrilla, beginning the journey with a genuine urban immersion.

See whales and penguins from Puerto Madryn

Puerto Madryn impresses travelers with the abundance of its wildlife. Depending on the season, the port can take them to see whales off Pen?nsula Vald?s, penguins at Punta Tombo, sea lions, or the vast landscapes of the Atlantic steppe.

Sail the Beagle Channel from Ushuaia

The Beagle Channel gives Argentina its end-of-the-world character. Travelers remember the mountains, islands, seabirds, sea lions, and southern light that turn a boat trip into a true travel highlight.

Hidden gems off the beaten path

Have lunch at San Telmo Market before visiting Puerto Madero

In Buenos Aires, travelers often enjoy this simple contrast between the old city and the modern docks. San Telmo Market offers a local food stop before a more open walk through Puerto Madero.

Slow down by the Atlantic in Puerto Pirámides

From Puerto Madryn, Puerto Pir?mides offers a slower pace than the major tours of Pen?nsula Vald?s. Travelers enjoy this village set on the gulf, especially when a whale-watching trip is available.

Share a king crab meal in Ushuaia after the Beagle Channel

In Ushuaia, a king crab meal is often a simple way to round out the port call. After the wind, mountains, and islands of the Beagle Channel, this break makes the end-of-the-world atmosphere feel especially tangible.

What to see in Argentina?


It may take several trips to discover all the sights Argentina has to offer, but each trip reveals a little more of this American destination's secrets. If you love communion with nature, set off to discover the Perito Moreno glacier, one of the most accessible glaciers in the world. Thanks to steel footbridges, you'll have a front-row seat to the deafening yet impressive spectacle of falling icebergs. The Iguazu Falls, located deep in the forest on the border between Argentina and Brazil, offer another impressive spectacle: the crashing waterfalls tumbling down a basalt cliff, adorned as they go with the colors of the rainbow. Beyond the falls lie lush parks, perfect for romantic getaways amidst exceptional flora and fauna. Hiking and trekking enthusiasts will naturally take to Fitz Roy, where wild landscapes set against a backdrop of jagged peaks await them for unforgettable climbs and hikes. If you're looking for a romantic itinerary, take the Route des Sept Lacs through lush forests, waterfalls and crystal-clear lakes. The trip can be made by car, bus or bicycle.

A trip to Argentina inevitably includes Buenos Aires, the most European of American cities. The Cementerio de la Recoleta is the capital's main tourist attraction. The crypts, carved from marble or granite and adorned with stained glass windows, statues of angels and religious icons, are well worth a visit. As you stroll between the aisles, you'll sometimes come across wildcats stealthily crossing the tombs. With its cobbled streets, colonial architecture and traditional atmosphere reminiscent of the mid-19th century, the San Telmo district is also well worth a visit, especially on Sundays when a feria, a sort of flea market, takes place, displaying a plethora of antiques and trinkets. But what would a trip to Argentina be without a visit to the land of the Gauchos, one of the symbols of Argentina? Discover these nomadic cowboys, who are both horse trainers and cattle herders in San Antonio de Areco. Before leaving Argentina, take the road to Mendoza to taste some of Argentina's finest vintages.

The best season to discover Argentina


Because of its vast territory, Argentina has a wide range of climates. The northeast of the country has a subtropical climate, while the center is wetter and colder. In the south, the climate is more subarctic. A trip to Argentina is therefore possible all year round, depending on where you wish to visit. In the Andes, it snows in July and August, so you can go skiing while others bask in the sun. If you want to explore Patagonia, the best time to plan your trip is between November and March. Temperatures will be milder and the landscape will be in full bloom.
