- Make sure you're prepared for some of the high elevation destinations in Argentina. Elevation sickness is common, but there are many ways to remedy the illness, so you still have a chance to explore these regions.
- Use cash. Most places outside of Buenos Aires and other developed cities predominantly use the Argentine Pesos. Street vendors and markets also strictly use cash.
- Avoid flashy clothing and jewelry when traveling around Argentina to not attract unwanted attention.
Argentina Tours Things To Do
- Go sightseeing in Plaza de Mayo
Plaza de Mayo is the most important square in Buenos Aires. It's a political and historical center surrounded by many of the notable landmarks in the city. It's a must-visit for tourists to access the top attractions and learn about the country's origins. Plaza de Mayo is named for the May Pyramid in the center of the plaza – it commemorates the May Revolution from 1884 when Argentina gained independence. Notable buildings surround the plaza, including Casa Rosada, Buenos Aires City Hall, Metropolitan Cathedral, and Cabildo.
Best Time To Visit
Visit during the day to see a lot of the local life surrounding the plaza. It's a popular public gathering place and a hub for transportation with access to the metro trains. In addition to sightseeing, there are several shops and restaurants around the square. - Walk the colorful streets in the La Boca neighborhood
The colorful streets of La Boca are one of the most visited areas in Buenos Aires. It's one of the first settled areas established off of the port, but today attracts tourists from all over to experience its culture and history. La Boca is approximately a four-block radius filled with beautifully painted streets and buildings by local artists. Take a walk around to admire the artistic nature of the neighborhood. The streets are lined with vendors selling paintings, handicrafts, and souvenirs. It's considered the birthplace of the famous tango dance, so there are always street performers dancing.

Tango is a world-renowned dance style that originated in Argentina.

Argentina Tour Packages
The best time to visit Argentina is during the spring or the fall seasons. Keep in mind that Argentina is in the southern hemisphere, so its seasons are reversed. In general, Argentina has a temperate climate, remaining cool and dry year-round. However, it's a large country and features a variety of temperature differences depending on the region. The southern Andes region is the coldest due to the high elevations, while the northern region is the hottest, especially during the summer.
- Spring – October to December – Best Season
The best time to visit Argentina is during the spring. It avoids the extreme temperatures found during the summer or winter, giving tourists a more moderate climate to enjoy for their trip. Spring is the most beautiful time in the country when the flowers bloom – it's the best time to explore the great natural sights.
- Summer – January to March – Low Season
Many travelers avoid visiting Argentina during the summer because of the hot weather, especially in the north. Temperatures average between 90°F-100°F, so outdoor activities are unfavorable.
- Fall – April to June – Best Season
Fall is an alternative season to visit in Argentina. It's an off-peak season, so travel prices are better and popular destinations less crowded during the Fall. One of the most popular things to do during the Fall is to explore the wine region – Fall is harvest time for the grapes for producing fresh wine.
- Winter – July to September – Peak Season
Winter in Argentina is the summer travel season in the US, Europe, and Asia, where many travelers come from. Although it's the coldest season, it remains a popular time to visit.
