Flight time
The flight from Auckland to Argentina takes roughly 15.5 hours with a stopover. Despite the longish travel time, the vibrant culture and stunning landscapes make it worth the trip.
Salt flats, steak and soul-stirring moments
From the sultry tango halls of Buenos Aires to the towering glaciers of Patagonia, Argentina is a country of dramatic contrasts.
One minute you’re feasting on sizzling steaks and sipping world-class malbecs in stylish city restaurants; the next, you’re standing spellbound before the thundering beauty of Iguazú Falls, where nature calls the shots in spectacular style.
Stand in awe of the vast salt flats of Jujuy Province, sip and swirl your way through the vineyards of Cafayate, hit the open road along legendary Route 40, or saddle up with gauchos across the sprawling pampas. And if you’re a football fan? Time your visit for a local match – the atmosphere is electric, spine-tingling, unforgettable.
Whether it’s the culture, cuisine or cinematic scenery that’s calling you, every moment in Argentina is wrapped in passion. This isn’t a country that does things halfway.
Talk to our Argentina specialists and plan your perfect escape today.
Best time to go
Spring (September–November) and Autumn (March–June) are ideal for exploring Argentina’s cities with fewer crowds. For hiking Patagonia or enjoying summer festivals, visit between December and February, when the south is at its warmest.
Time difference
Argentina is between 15 and 16 hours behind New Zealand, depending on Daylight Saving at our end, so it's a bit of a difference.

Having been in the travel industry for 14 years, it's safe to say travel
is my biggest passion. I love turning up somewhere not knowing what to expect
and being delighted by both the differences in culture, cuisine and customs.
Part way through my career I took a year off and spent this travelling
extensively through central America, Asia and Europe. I'm now fortunate enough
to be able to pass on the knowledge I've gained over the years and work with my
clients to bring their travel dreams to fruition.

Having spent the last 30
years in the Travel Industry I can safely say "I love my job" !!
Getting to put together dream holidays is very rewarding and it's great to see
so many more Kiwis getting out to see this amazing world of ours...
I love to tailor holidays that are uniquely personal to you. Every person has
different needs, wants and "must do's" for their holiday. Nothing is
cookie cutter in the world of travel so being able to put together an itinerary
that is bespoke and personal is rewarding for myself and for you, the
traveller.
My favourite destinations would be Europe (especially France and Italy), South
East Asia (especially Vietnam and Thailand) and of course our Island
neighbours. I have been to Fiji numerous times and every time I just love it.
But there are so many places I have yet to travel to and I look forward to
sharing my travel stories along the way.
I look forward to working with you..
