A refined journey from Brazil’s vibrant coast to Argentina’s glaciers, vineyards and grand capital
Begin your luxury Argentina journey with your flight from the UK to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where two nights at the iconic Belmond Copacabana Palace provide a stylish introduction to South America. Overlooking the famous curve of Copacabana Beach, Rio combines coastal scenery, vibrant culture and world-renowned landmarks, creating a striking contrast to the landscapes that follow throughout your journey.
A short onward flight brings you to Iguazú Falls, where your stay at Awasi Iguazú places you within the Atlantic Forest on the Argentine side of the falls. With a private guide and vehicle included, your experience is tailored around your interests, whether exploring quieter rainforest trails, discovering the surrounding ecosystem or admiring the scale and power of the falls from carefully selected viewpoints.
The journey continues to Mendoza, Argentina’s celebrated wine region, where vineyard experiences, exceptional cuisine and views of the Andes combine to create one of South America’s most rewarding luxury destinations. From here, travel south to Bariloche and the Lake District, where lakes, forested peaks and mountain scenery surround the iconic Llao Llao Resort in the heart of northern Patagonia. Your Patagonian experience then continues in El Calafate, where the immense scale of the Perito Moreno Glacier is revealed during an unforgettable helicopter overflight across southern Patagonia’s ice fields and mountain landscapes.
Your journey concludes in Buenos Aires, where refined accommodation, private touring, fine Argentine wines and an evening of tango provide a memorable finale. Over 15 days, this carefully curated itinerary combines vibrant cities, remarkable landscapes and exceptional stays before your return flight to the UK.
