FIND YOUR NEXT ADVENTURE

Chile and Argentina, neighbors separated by the magnificent Andes mountains, showcase South America's most diverse and spectacular landscapes. Chile's slender coastline stretches over 4,300 kilometers, offering everything from the world's driest desert in the north to the ice fields of Patagonia in the south, while Argentina boasts vast pampas grasslands, thundering waterfalls, and sophisticated urban centers with European flair. Both countries share the breathtaking wilderness of Patagonia, where glaciers calve into turquoise lakes and jagged peaks pierce the sky.

Beyond natural wonders, these nations captivate visitors with their passionate cultures - Argentina's tango halls and gaucho traditions contrast with Chile's poetic heritage and indigenous influences. Wine enthusiasts flock to world-renowned vineyards in Argentina's Mendoza and Chile's Maipo Valley, while food lovers indulge in Argentina's legendary steakhouses and Chile's bountiful seafood. Whether hiking through Torres del Paine, exploring bustling Buenos Aires, or stargazing in the Atacama Desert, Chile and Argentina offer unforgettable experiences that blend adventure, history, and South American hospitality.

Trending Locations

Torres del Paine National Park

Patagonia, Chile

  • The iconic granite towers (Torres)
  • Grey Glacier
  • Diverse wildlife including guanacos and pumas

Torres del Paine represents the crown jewel of Chilean Patagonia, where impossibly blue lakes contrast with golden grasslands and the dramatic granite spires that give the park its name. Hiking the W Circuit reveals a landscape of hanging glaciers, powerful waterfalls, and windswept plains. The park's microclimate creates ever-changing weather conditions, adding to the mystical atmosphere of this UNESCO Biosphere Reserve that attracts photographers, trekkers, and nature lovers from around the world.

Buenos Aires

Capital city, Argentina

  • Colorful La Boca neighborhood
  • Teatro Colón opera house
  • San Telmo's historic cobblestone streets

Buenos Aires pulses with sophisticated European-inspired architecture and Latin American passion. The 'Paris of South America' seduces visitors with its wide boulevards, vibrant street art, and the melancholic strains of tango music drifting from historic milongas. Each neighborhood offers a distinct personality: elegant Recoleta with its famous cemetery, bohemian San Telmo with its antique markets, and colorful La Boca where the passionate football culture thrives. The porteños (locals) embrace life with enthusiasm, dining late into the night and celebrating their cultural heritage with pride.

Atacama Desert

Northern Chile

  • Valle de la Luna (Moon Valley)
  • El Tatio Geysers
  • Some of the world's clearest night skies for astronomy

The Atacama Desert presents an otherworldly landscape of rust-colored canyons, salt flats, and geothermal fields that more closely resemble Mars than Earth. As the driest non-polar desert on the planet, some areas have never recorded rainfall. The small oasis town of San Pedro de Atacama serves as the gateway to surreal attractions like the bubbling El Tatio geysers at dawn, flamingo-dotted salt flats, and ancient petroglyphs. After dark, the desert transforms into one of the world's premier stargazing destinations, with astronomical observatories taking advantage of the exceptionally clear skies.

Iguazú Falls

Misiones Province, Argentina (bordering Brazil)

  • 275 individual waterfalls
  • Devil's Throat (Garganta del Diablo)
  • Surrounding subtropical rainforest with diverse wildlife

Iguazú Falls represents nature at its most spectacular – a thundering collection of 275 cascades that crash through lush jungle along the Argentina-Brazil border. The Argentine side offers intimate encounters with the falls via an extensive network of walkways that bring visitors close enough to feel the spray. The highlight is Devil's Throat, a U-shaped cataract where fourteen falls plunge 350 feet with such force that a permanent mist hovers above. The surrounding national park teems with wildlife, including toucans, capybaras, and playful coatis that often approach visitors.

Mendoza Wine Region

Cuyo Region, Argentina

  • World-renowned Malbec vineyards
  • Stunning Andean mountain backdrop
  • Luxury wine resorts and spas

Nestled in the eastern foothills of the Andes, Mendoza has transformed from a desert into Argentina's premier wine country through sophisticated irrigation. The region produces nearly two-thirds of Argentina's wine, with Malbec as its flagship varietal. Beyond wine tasting at historic bodegas, visitors can cycle between vineyards, dine at acclaimed restaurants serving farm-to-table cuisine, or adventure into the nearby mountains for hiking and rafting. The city of Mendoza itself charms with its tree-lined streets, leafy plazas, and relaxed atmosphere where wine culture permeates every aspect of daily life.

Guidelines for Cultural Awareness

  • Greetings in both countries typically involve a kiss on the cheek, even between people who've just met. In business settings, however, a handshake is more appropriate for first meetings.
  • Argentines and Chileans dine late by North American and European standards – dinner rarely starts before 9 PM, and restaurants may be empty if you arrive earlier.
  • In Argentina, the 'OK' hand gesture (thumb and index finger forming a circle) is considered offensive. Avoid using it and opt for a thumbs up instead.
  • When invited to someone's home in either country, bringing a small gift like wine or chocolates is appreciated. However, avoid bringing Chilean wine to Argentina or vice versa due to the friendly rivalry between these wine-producing nations.
  • The topic of the Falkland Islands (called Islas Malvinas in Argentina) remains sensitive for Argentines. It's best to avoid discussing this territorial dispute unless your Argentine host brings it up first.

Suggestions for Evening Activities

  • Experience an authentic tango show at Café Tortoni in Buenos Aires, Argentina's oldest café where you can watch professional dancers while enjoying dinner and wine.
  • Visit Patio Bellavista in Santiago, Chile – a vibrant cultural and gastronomic center with numerous bars, live music venues, and artisan shops open late into the night.
  • Attend a performance at Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires, considered one of the world's best opera houses with near-perfect acoustics and stunning French-Italian architecture.
  • Join a stargazing tour in the Elqui Valley of Chile, where professional astronomers guide you through the southern constellations using powerful telescopes in one of the clearest skies on Earth.
  • Experience a peña (traditional folk music gathering) in Salta, Argentina, where locals and visitors share food, wine, and participate in traditional northwestern folk music and dance.
