Argentina

A land of passion, flavour, and awe-inspiring landscapes


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.

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.

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.

With over 40 years of travel experience, including 30 years living and working in the USA, I’ve developed a deep passion for showcasing the beauty and diversity of the United States. But my love of travel goes far beyond that. Travel is not just a career for me—it's a lifelong journey that has shaped my understanding of the world and its many cultures.

I thrive on helping my clients discover unique, off-the-beaten-path destinations, and I have a special fondness for authentic, remote locations that offer a genuine connection to the culture and landscape.

My adventures have taken me to the vast sands of Morocco and Egypt, where I’ve explored ancient ruins and vibrant markets. I’ve trekked the Inca Trail in Peru and hiked to Everest Base Camp in Nepal, experiencing firsthand the stunning landscapes and welcoming communities. 

Whether it’s trekking through the mountains of Nepal or uncovering hidden gems in Peru, I love guiding travellers to places that offer more than just sightseeing—they offer a chance to truly connect with the world.

I find great joy in helping my clients turn their dream holidays into reality, whether they’re after iconic landmarks or remote locations that are rich in culture and adventure.

Through my work as a travel agent, I create experiences that go beyond the ordinary, helping travellers discover not only new places but new perspectives.

Let me help you craft a journey that will stay with you long after you’ve returned home.
