Car Rental Argentina - Exploring Argentina

Given such a huge, elongated landmass, the choices of road destinations are almost unending and the nation’s treasures abundant.

Mar del Plata can be found on the northern Atlantic coast, 400 kilometres from the capital. The nearby beaches are stunning, and offer visitors sophisticated mansions for accommodation. Upper-class resorts mingle freely with middle-class porteños along the seafront, while sea lions keep an eye on the fishing activities.

Patagonian destinations such as the Moreno Glacier in Santa Cruz are best visited during the summer months between December and February. The breathtaking Iguazú Falls is situated in the Parque Nacional Iguazú near Puerto Iguazú, standing 70 metres above the national park, which is home to an abundant wildlife and plant species. Above the falls, the waters are suitable for canoeing, kayaking, and other water sports. The winter months (mid-June to late September) offer the best conditions for skiing vacations.

The Pampas is Argentina's agricultural heartland and the home of that symbol of romantic nationalism, the gaucho. The towns of Rosario and Santa Fe are also worth driving around for their many museums, churches and faded colonial buildings. Wilderness walks, climbing, and white-water rafting are available on many parts of Argentina.
