Spectacular tour traverses through Argentina`stropical rainforests in the north,
snow-capped Andean mountains in the south, and all the wonders in between
JENKINTOWN, Pa.--(Business Wire)--
Argentina is known as a wonderland of beauty, tango, food, wine, and (of course)
soccer. Once an exotic playground for backpackers, adventure seekers, and
high-rolling wine connoisseurs, Argentina seemed out of limits for the average
traveler. But now, thanks to Friendly Planet Travel, more vacationers than ever
before can experience one of South America`s most resplendent countries. The
company`s 11-day Incredible Argentina tour for $1,599 includes all the majesty
of Argentina`s natural attractions and the cosmopolitan thrills of Buenos Aires,
"the Paris of the South." Take in one of the greatest natural wonders of the
world at Iguazú Falls. Hit the slopes at the world-renowned Mount Cathedral Ski
Resort. Hop into exotic shops nestled among Buenos Aires` cafés, cathedrals, and
night clubs. The trip includes round-trip airfare from Miami; all
transportation; deluxe hotel accommodations; daily breakfast; and comprehensive
sightseeing with a local, English-speaking guide.

"Argentina is the stuff travelers` dreams are made of," says Peggy Goldman,
President of Friendly Planet Travel. "With expeditions that explore verdant
rainforest floors, some of the highest peaks of the Andes, and dynamic city
streets, our Incredible Argentina tour is as diversified as the country itself.
From the subtropical north, to the glacial south, Argentina is one of the most
soul-stirring countries I`ve ever seen. Not to mention, the
Argentines-considered some of the world`s friendliest, most seductive, engaging
people in the world-will make sure you never want your Argentina adventure to
end."

Travelers visit three of Argentina`s most ecologically and culturally
significant destinations: Iguazú, Bariloche, and Buenos Aires. In addition to
Friendly Planet`s daily scheduled excursions, vacationers can also choose from
an array of discount tour options at almost every stop along the trip. For
instance, they can take a trip to Victoria Island, where they`ll ascend Mount
Bella Vista by a chairlift to walk down a narrow path of ancient trees that
affords some of the most spectacular views in the region. Or visit the Cerro
Catedral, rising to nearly 8,000 feet. Here travelers can spend the afternoon at
Argentina`s world-renowned Mount Cathedral ski resort. Later, spend an optional
day outside Buenos Aires at the beautiful town of Tigre, an island in the Paraná
Delta that was first settled by Europeans and has since become a fashionable
weekend spot. With its grand architecture, antiques shops, riverside restaurants
and pubs, a casino, and a small amusement park, it`s no wonder why.
