Hotel la Candela

A succession of world class excursions throughout the two weeks.

JS, Newbury

Highlight? The trip to Puna.

RE, Sheffield

Real Argentina

Excellent trip during which we felt we saw some of the real Argentina. Delightful and helpful people abounded who had an enviable pride in their country. Excellent service from JLA (particularly Lina) and local representatives in Argentina added to our enjoyment.

ML, Cheltenham

Not easy to pick out a highlight. It was a very varied trip as we had requested.  The natural scenery around Salta, Iguazu, the Lakes and all over Patagonia was amazing, helped by some very favourable weather. The top hotels - Patagonia Camp, Patios de Cafayate, Arakur were great; some of the lesser hotels surpassed their descriptions - Molinos, la Yegua Loca, Anslemo;...The Andean Crossing was fabulous: fantastic scenery which we saw in perfect conditions, with very easy transfers and helpful guides.

CB, Winchester

Most Memorable Moment?: Iguazu falls - the whole trip was incredible! Seeing the falls by full moon was one of the most amazing things i have ever seen!

JW, Aylesbury

What a fantastic country with genuinely friendly, happy people; it was a delight to meet so many.  Although we realise we haven't seen all  that the country has to offer, we felt we did get a real impression of  Argentina and loved it.

ML, Cheltenham

Highlight?: Too many but Iguazu stands out!

JB, Mansfield

Hotel Club Tapiz and visiting the wineries in Mendoza was a real highlight. The Iguazu falls were also incredible.

CAA, London

Highlights?: Perito Moreno breathtaking, Cerro frias,Patagonian lunch and staff (Anna)delightful, Iguazu spectacular, Tango dancing at El Querandi unforgettable.

AM, Egham

Highlight: Journey on the Puna

MK, London

Beautiful country

The weather was very kind to us and every glacier, view and the falls were stunningly beautiful. I loved being in the hotel at Bariloche sitting on the terrace overlooking the lake. I even thoroughly enjoyed travelling through the Enchanted Valley from Nequen to Bariloche because the airport had been closed. It is impossible for us to put one memorable moment as every part of Argentina that we went to was beautiful.

LL, Bexley

Highlight?: Wildlife! Buenos Aires! Travelling Club! being at the end of the world, border crossing in and out of Chile - good fun.....

MK, Orkney

The whole trip was memorable!  The excursion to Estancia Cristina was amazing, trekking Laguna Torre and Laguna de los Tres were awesome too.  And nothing beats being able to see and hear the Perito Moreno Glacier calve!

LB, London

Absolute must!

An excellent holiday to a fantastically varied country inhabited by charming people. An absolute must.

CF, Sutton

So many highlights. We wee deeply impressed by the stunning natural beauty of Argentina. Iguazu, Humahuaca, Perrito Moreno and Mount Fitzroy in particular.

JD, London

Most Memorable Moment?: Sitting by the shore of Laguna de los Tres at the base of Mount Fitz Roy in El Chaltén ... or sitting in a wood-fired hot-tub on the first day of our honey-moon, overwrought, slightly jet lagged and very happily married!

RB, London

Perito Moreno was great again but I think the highlight was probably hiking in El Chalten area which was beautiful.

PC, London

Everything met with our expectations (and beyond) but If there was a real highlight it was probably the visit to Estancia Christina

RJ, Arundel

Most memorable aspect: “Something between a long walk in Torres del Paine, the glacier, the boat ride in Ushuaia, San Telmo in Buenos Aires! Too many to pick from.” 

RM, Tooting

We had a marvellous time, the welcome's we got at each airport was fantastic and everyone was helpful, friendly and knowledgeable.  The people of Argentina are warm and friendly we felt relaxed and would recommend a visit there to anyone

MC

Difficult to identify (the highlights of my self drive holiday)... I would highlight the interest of the looping drive down the mountains to the west....watching the leaves of the roadside foliage increase in size as the temperature rose was mesmerising. I would suggest that the pleasure of long drives through changing countryside is one of the unsung pleasures of such holidays as mine. But perhaps that's just lazy old me!

RS, Salisbury

Most Memorable Moment?: Seeing Iguazu falls was brilliant.

IM, Chippenham

Each day gave us stunning scenery, amazing sights and the friendliness of the Argentinian people. Although one particular highlight was seeing an armadillo on the road from El Calafate..

YGG, Wirral

Highlights:The visit to the milonga for my husband and the Iguazu Falls for me

LS, Dorchester

Patagonia and Buenos Aires were the stand out highlights although the whole trip was wonderful.

ED, London

LL, Bexley

Most Memorable Moment: Perito Moreno glacier.

SU, London

Most memorable experience: "First - the Andean crossing from Puerta Varas to Bariloche. Perfect weather, scenery and organisation. Second - Patagonia Camp and the mini-treks we did around the Park. Beautiful Third - Salta and the Cachi/Cafayate trip. Interesting, historic and magnificent."

RW, Cobham

Seeing the iguazu falls was unforgettable. The hotel was beautiful with a fantastic position.

LD, London

We both thought that the experience and power of the Iguazu Falls when we were alone in the grounds on our own (early in the morning before the crowds arrived) was an experience of a lifetime. We've never seen an almost circular rainbow caused by the river's spray before.
