Argentina

There’s a lot more to Argentina than steak and tango dancing (though they do add a certain something…). It’s a country of extremes: the arid deserts in the north and sophistication of Buenos Aires give way to the cold, wild and windy steppe of Patagonia. The Andes mountains harbour a number of ski resorts, which are mostly clustered in three distinct areas: Mondoza, the Lake District (north Patagonia) and Ushuaia, way down south in the Tierra del Fuego region.
