Argentina Soccer and Sightseeing

Argentina is the second largest country in South America and is the largest among Spanish-speaking nations. The secret is out: with its gorgeous landscapes, cosmopolitan cities and lively culture, Argentina is a traveler's paradise. Nature-lovers will revel in the country's mountain peaks, amazing waterfalls, scenery of the lush Lake District – with its glorious lakes and white-tipped mountains – and Patagonia's glacier-carved landscapes and painted Andean deserts. City slickers will adore fabulous Buenos Aires, full of opportunities to learn Spanish, watch soccer, dance the sexy tango and interact with dynamic and beautiful porteños (Buenos Aires locals).

Buenos Aires is the capital and largest city in Argentina. It is located on the southern shore of the Río de la Plata on the southeastern coast of the South American continent. Built by Europeans, this vibrant city overflows with energy and brims with attractive residents called porteños (people of the port). The food is fresh and innovative, the shopping ranges from designer labels to street hawkers, and nightlife will keep you swinging all night long.

Don't miss attending a super passionate "fútbol" or rugby game, snatching a quick tango lesson or downing a juicy steak, it is all top notch. Scratch beneath the surface and you'll find a wealth of old-world cafés, colonial architecture, outdoor markets and diverse communities, plus loads to intrigue and entertain. Rub shoulders with Recoleta's rich and famous while you visit its fascinating necropolis. Hunt for that antique gem in a dusty San Telmo shop or rollerblade around Palermo's green parks with the Sunday crowd.
