Tours in Argentina

Empanada Making Class in Buenos Aires

When Lily from our BugBitten team took this empanada class in Buenos Aires, she spent three and a half hours in a local's home learning to roll, fill, and fold dough from scratch. The neighbourhood is quiet and residential—the kind of place where you actually get a sense of how porteños live day-to-day. You'll work alongside your host, get properly flour-dusted, taste mate the way locals do, and walk away with the skill to make empanadas at home. It's hands-on, unpretentious, and centred on real cooking rather than performance.

Buenos Aires: 7-Course Argentine Asado & Live Music

When Tom from our team pitched up to this Buenos Aires asado dinner, he found himself in a candlelit garden with live tango filtering through the night air. Seven courses of premium Argentine beef — tenderloin, flank, chorizo, sweetbreads, the lot — all slow-cooked over an open fire while four local wines kept the table flowing. The live acoustic tango and folk show runs alongside dessert, giving you the full Buenos Aires theatre without hopping between venues. It's a solid 2h 45m evening that bundles the three things BA does best: meat, wine, and music.

Trekking day in the mountains close to Bariloche

When Noah from our team tackled this day trek near Bariloche, we found a solid way to clock decent alpine distance without abandoning your hotel bed for the night. The outfit matches you with a bilingual guide who reads your fitness level and steers you up the mountains ringing this Patagonian city, swapping lakeside views and forest for proper wilderness in one seven-hour push. You're back in town by evening, which suits travellers who want mountain air without a multi-day commitment. The Lake District backdrop—all jagged ridges and blue water—is the real draw here.

Horseback riding and barbecue in a private ranch - La Carrera, Mendoza

When Mia from our team rode out at El Pico Palma, a fifth-generation family ranch tucked 2000 metres up in Mendoza's La Carrera valley, she found herself in proper high-altitude cowboy country. You spend a full day on horseback between the Pre-cordillera peaks, then settle in for a proper asado spread—empanadas, regional wines, grilled meat cooked the Creole way, and a dessert table that won't quit. The ranch stays intimate; the Palma family runs it themselves. It's seven hours total, and the altitude and saddle time are real, but the payoff is genuine gaucho life without the tourist-trap feel.

Buenos Aires Like a Local: Private City Tour in Premium Car

When Charlie from our BugBitten team did this private tour, we got a real sense of Buenos Aires without the tourist shuffle. You're paired with a local guide in a comfortable car, rolling through the city's signature neighbourhoods at whatever pace suits you—stopping for photos, doubling back if something catches your eye, asking questions without watching the clock. It's four to five hours of genuine neighbourhood flavour: the architecture, the street energy, the stories behind why things are as they are. Works brilliantly for first-timers who want more than a tick-box, or returners keen to see past the postcard bits.

🛕 Culture & History

7 hours – 8 hoursfrom AUD $239

Private Walking Tour of Buenos Aires South Neighborhoods

When Tom from our team ran this walking tour through Buenos Aires' southern neighbourhoods, we got the real local read on the city—not the postcard version. Tom grew up here and spent years living abroad in Europe and the States, so he knows exactly what travellers want to see while refusing to skip the gritty, actual life of Buenos Aires. The guide speaks four languages fluently and weaves history, street culture, and neighbourhood character into a four-hour loop that covers ground on foot and by public transport. You're walking where porteños actually live, not just passing through museum precincts.

Sailing with Wine Tasting in Buenos Aires

When Em from our team set sail on the Río de la Plata, we found ourselves on one of the world's widest rivers with a knowledgeable crew steering the boat while a sommelier walked us through four Argentine wines—the kind that've earned serious international respect. Buenos Aires' waterfront skyline receded as we anchored mid-river, the light hitting the water just right, and worked through local cheese, cured meats, and small plates designed to complement each pour. Four hours on the water, sunset included, feels like the kind of thing locals actually do rather than a tourist checkbox.

Kayak paddling adventure around Bariloche

When Jake from our team paddled around Bariloche, we found ourselves drifting across some genuinely still water with the Andes towering behind us. This 7-hour kayak trip takes you into the Argentine Lake District from a perspective most tourists miss—silent, slow, and close enough to actually hear the landscape. You're paddling clear bays in Northern Patagonia with a bilingual guide who reads the weather and adjusts the route to match what the day offers. The combo of paddling, a proper lakeside lunch, and zero engine noise makes it feel less like a tick-box activity and more like you've borrowed someone's quiet morning.

Buenos Aires Maradona Experience

When Alex from our team ran this Maradona tour in Buenos Aires, we got the full pilgrimage experience — four and a half hours tracing Diego's footprints across the city where he became a god. You'll hit the street art celebrating his genius, tour Argentinos Juniors Stadium where he first played, explore his childhood home turned museum, and eat lunch at the cafeteria he used to frequent. It's unapologetically devoted to one man's legend, set against the backdrop of La Boca's colourful, football-obsessed neighbourhoods. This one's for the genuine fans.

"SAILING TOUR: Tango and Choripan (typical Argentine food)

When Ben from our team took this sailing tour on the Luján River, we drifted past Buenos Aires from the water while eating choripán, sipping Malbec, and learning about tango culture. The river itself is striking — its colour and wildlife give you a completely different read on the city than street level. Over two hours, the boat moves at a relaxed pace through less-touristy stretches of water, with a guide talking through the music, the mate ritual, and Argentine food traditions. It's a solid mid-afternoon or early-evening slot for food, history, and a bit of novelty.

Mendoza Winery Tour with Olive Trees in Private Service

When Tom from our BugBitten team ran this private Mendoza winery tour, he got a properly curated day across Maipú's wine country without the coach-tour crowds. You're picked up from your hotel and driven through three distinct bodegas — Antigal for the vineyard walk and tasting, a smaller olive grove for oils and gourmet tasters, then Manuel Villafañe for a three-course lunch matched with local wines. The day wraps at Los Toneles, a heritage-listed winery where the architecture alone justifies the stop. Eight hours total, and it reads like someone who knows the region designed it for people who actually want to taste things rather than tick boxes.

Private Tour Jewish Buenos Aires

When Jake from our team ran this private tour through Buenos Aires' Jewish neighbourhoods, we got a proper sense of a community that's been shaping the city since the late 1800s. You'll visit working synagogues, pop into kosher delis, see the old textile district where generations built their trade, and catch the texture of daily life across Ashkenazi and Sephardic traditions. It's a focused four-hour loop that moves at a decent clip—your guide handles the driving, so you're not navigating the city yourself, and the air-con keeps things comfortable even when Buenos Aires is roasting.

Escondido and Fagnano Lakes 4x4 OFF ROAD

When Tom from our team ran this 7–8 hour 4x4 adventure in Tierra del Fuego, it delivered proper off-road thrills without the pretence. You drive Route 3 past peat bogs and Andean views, stop at a gin distillery, then tackle genuine rough terrain around Lake Escondido and Lake Fagnano — beaver circuits, river crossings, the works. The landscape shifts from high moorland to dense southern beech forest, and you'll spot guanacos if you're lucky. It's a genuine back-country tour that balances genuine driving with slower moments and a decent lunch at journey's end. Suits anyone after a full day away from Ushuaia's main tourist drag.

Andes Mountain Tour Circuit Mt Aconcagua

★ 5.0 (45)

8 hours – 9 hoursfrom AUD $260

Andes Mountain Tour Circuit Mt Aconcagua

When Noah from our team ran this circuit, we spent a full day driving through the Argentine Andes to Aconcagua Provincial Park—the continent's highest peak dominating the landscape the whole way. It's a scenic road trip with a pocket hike, not a full mountaineering mission. You'll climb into the foothills at around 3,000 metres, spot the historic Puente del Inca bridge, and get driven through Route 7, the trans-Andean highway that cuts through serious terrain. The group stays small, and your guide knows the area well. Expect 8–9 hours door-to-door, with about three and a half hours on foot.

🏔 Adventure & Sports

Cabalgata Cruce de Los Andes Cruce Sanmartiniano

When Sarah from our team tackled this seven-day mountain crossing, she was retracing the route of San Martín's legendary liberating army through the spine of the Andes. You're riding mules across high passes, wild weather, and genuinely remote terrain between Argentina's valleys and peaks—camping in basic mountain refuges the whole way. It's a proper expedition, not a trot. The landscape is immense and the historical weight of what happened here sits heavy. Summer season only (December to March), groups capped at 14, and your legs and lungs need to be genuinely fit.

Private Photography Tour in Buenos Aires

★ 5.0 (44)

Private Photography Tour in Buenos Aires

When Charlie from our team took this three-hour photography tour through Buenos Aires, we found ourselves genuinely learning how to frame the city rather than just chasing postcard shots. Your guide is a working travel photographer who knows the light, the angles, and the quieter corners where locals actually hang out. You'll move through neighbourhoods at a pace that lets you think about composition instead of racing through a checklist. It's hands-on tuition dressed up as a walking tour — the photographer leads, you shoot, they offer real feedback on your settings and framing. Most visitors leave with images they're actually proud of, not just another hundred snaps to edit later.

Premium Albino Eye Glacier Trekking For Small Groups

When Ben from our team tackled the Ojo del Albino Glacier trek in Argentina's Sierra Alvear, it was a proper test — 10 hours of high-altitude, high-difficulty scrambling that demands serious fitness. The payoff is that luminous turquoise melt lagoon nestled beneath a 20-metre glacier wall, with vast flat ice sprawling behind it. You're trekking in genuine remoteness, small group only, during the southern summer window. It's the kind of day that leaves you genuinely wrecked and genuinely buzzing.

Only Whales in Puerto Madryn Full Day Tour Regular

When Tom from our team booked the Only Whales full-day tour, we headed out to Valdes Peninsula—a UNESCO World Heritage site south of Puerto Madryn where Southern Right Whales show up reliably from June through December. The 8–9 hour run takes you through one of Argentina's most protected marine reserves, scouting for whales and the other wildlife that gathers here. It's a proper wildlife day out, not a quick spin: expect genuine time on the water and across the peninsula's remote stretches, with a mix of landscape and marine watching.

Essential Buenos Aires: A Journey Through Argentine Wine

★ 5.0 (41)

1 hour – 1h 10mfrom AUD $128

Essential Buenos Aires: A Journey Through Argentine Wine

When Ben from our BugBitten team rolled through this Buenos Aires wine experience, he found a refreshingly unpretentious take on Argentine wine. Set in a proper wine bar with cellar access and a private mezzanine perch, the two-hour tasting walks you through three regional classics — Torrontés, Criolla, and Malbec — paired with thoughtful tapas. The vibe is social and playful rather than stuffy; you're tasting alongside locals and other travellers, doing little games and challenges to sharpen your palate rather than sitting through lectures. It's a solid introduction to what Argentina does best without the gatekeeping.

Private transfer between airports AEROPARQUE/EZEIZA or vice versa

When Mia from our BugBitten team needed to hop between Buenos Aires' two airports, she booked a private transfer from Ministro Pistarini (Ezeiza) to Jorge Newbery (Aeroparque) or the other way round. It's a straightforward airport-to-airport shuttle in a modern, air-conditioned car—nothing fancy, but genuinely useful if you're connecting flights or splitting your stay between the city centre and the international hub. The drive takes roughly an hour depending on traffic, and the car meets your group size, whether that's solo or a small crew.

Ultimate Yerba Mate Tasting and Ritual Workshop in Iguazu

★ 5.0 (41)

Ultimate Yerba Mate Tasting and Ritual Workshop in Iguazu

When Em from our BugBitten team dropped into Iguazu's first Matebar, we got a proper crash course in yerba mate culture — the ritual, the kit, the regional variations. Forty minutes might sound short, but it's a concentrated hit: you're tasting three different yerba blends, learning how locals actually prepare it (there's technique, it turns out), and walking out with a new bombilla as a souvenir. This is Argentine identity stuff, not tourist theatre. The spot attracts a mix of curious travellers and locals who know what they're after, and it feels genuine.

Private Tango Class in Buenos Aires with Expert Instructor

When Mia from our team tried this private tango lesson in central Buenos Aires, she got a proper feel for why this dance matters to the city. You're working one-on-one with Laurence, an instructor who's spent decades performing and teaching tango across the globe. The class runs for an hour and scales to wherever you're at—absolute beginner or someone keen to tighten up their technique. It's held right in the heart of the city, so you're learning in the actual neighbourhood where tango lives, not some tourist studio.

Private Mendoza WineTour: 3 Premium Wineries Michelin-Star Lunch

When Em from our team ran this private Mendoza wine tour, we spent eight hours in Luján de Cuyo, Argentina's blue-chip Malbec territory, visiting three premium wineries with guided tastings and lunch at Susana Balbo Wines — a Michelin-recognised estate founded by Argentina's pioneering female winemaker. The Andes frame everything. It's a polished, unhurried day for people who actually want to taste serious wine and eat properly, not rush between tourist stops. Private transport means no coach queues or schedule compromise.

Animal watching in Punta Tombo and Isla Escondida

When Mia from our team ran this seven-hour wildlife tour in Patagonia, she spent the day island-hopping between Punta Tombo and Isla Escondida, two patches of coastline packed with penguins, sea lions, and cormorants. The guide knew the local ecology inside-out and steered the group toward the best sightings without rushing between stops. It's the kind of tour that works because someone's bothered to map out the rhythm — you're not cramming five locations into a day, just moving thoughtfully between two rich spots. The vibe is relaxed, mixed-age crowd, mostly after that genuine wildlife encounter.

Private Tango & Hands-On Argentine Cooking Class with Dinner

When Lily from our team did this private tango and cooking class in Argentina, we stepped into a local home for a genuinely intimate cultural afternoon. It's a 4.5-hour experience that ditches the stuffy studio feel — you learn to tango with a dedicated instructor, then move into the kitchen to cook a proper three-course dinner from scratch alongside your host. The vibe is relaxed but purposeful; you're not watching a demo, you're doing the work. It's the kind of thing that makes you feel less like a tourist and more like you've been invited into someone's life for an afternoon.

Horseback Riding and Polo in Buenos Aires

When Noah from our team booked this 10-hour tour, we found a rare chance to string together horseback riding and polo in one day outside Buenos Aires. You start with mate and a couple of hours in the saddle across the pampas, then swing into a proper asado lunch before a polo lesson with a pro instructor. It's the kind of tour that appeals to horse people and anyone keen to try a sport that feels genuinely Argentine — and it's not something you'll find bundled together often.

Buenos Aires Highlights Tour with Driver and Guide

★ 5.0 (38)

8 hours – 10 hoursfrom AUD $246

Buenos Aires Highlights Tour with Driver and Guide

When Lily from our team ran this Buenos Aires Highlights Tour, we found ourselves with a proper guide who actually knew the city — not a driver doubling up on commentary. Four hours whisking through Buenos Aires with a dedicated expert meant we hit the key pockets: colonial architecture, tango districts, markets, whatever the route is that day. It's a private car setup, so pacing feels controlled and you're not herded with a crowd. The guide walks alongside at each stop, asks questions back, and doesn't rush through. Best suited for first-timers wanting the actual story behind the neighbourhood rather than a hurried tick-box run.

Learn English with Native Teachers - LINGUAS

When Charlie from our team tried a one-hour session with LINGUAS, we found ourselves in a Buenos Aires classroom where the whole point is to actually speak English from minute one, not conjugate verbs in silence. The outfit ditches grammar drills in favour of real chats — ordering coffee, asking directions, handling actual conversations you'd need. Classes run entirely in English, which forces your brain to think in the language rather than translate from Spanish. The result is you leave with more confidence and genuine fluency gains, not just textbook knowledge. It's practical, moves fast, and suits travellers who want to chat comfortably without the academic overhead.

Intimate Asado & Wine Pairing – Hidden House in Recoleta

When Alex from our BugBitten team pitched up at this Recoleta townhouse, we got the sense this wasn't a restaurant booking — it was an invite into someone's home. A small group gathers around the fire for a five-course asado paired with five wines, moving through the ritual of Argentine hospitality from the vermouth-and-cheese terrace opener to premium parrilla cuts. Three hours of proper gathering, not rushed service. The whole vibe sits somewhere between dinner party and masterclass, and Recoleta's tree-lined streets feel a world away from the city noise.

Full Day High Mountain Mendoza, Aconcagua and Inca Bridge Tour

When Sarah from our team ran this high-altitude loop south of Mendoza, it felt less like a tour bus shuffle and more like a local showing you around their backyard. You're climbing into the Andes to hit three proper standouts—Aconcagua (the hemisphere's tallest peak, though you view it from a distance), the old Inca Bridge stone arch, and a couple of other scenic stops—all bookended by a three-course lunch and morning coffee. It's a full day, eight to ten hours door-to-door, in a private vehicle with a certified guide. The operator runs tight groups, not packed minibuses, and handles all entry fees upfront. Suits families, couples, or anyone after high-altitude views without the climbing.

Trekking Vinciguerra Glacier and Laguna de los Témpanos

★ 5.0 (37)

Trekking Vinciguerra Glacier and Laguna de los Témpanos

When Lily from our BugBitten team tackled this glacier trek near the city, she found herself on a properly challenging seven-hour mission into Patagonian wilderness. You're walking through a Ramsar-protected wetland—the kind of landscape where beavers, peat bogs and glacial melt carved the place into shape—then climbing toward Laguna de los Témpanos and the Vinciguerra Glacier itself. The guide walks you through the ecology and geology as the vegetation thins out and the raw marks of ice erosion become impossible to miss. It's an ambitious day trip that rewards serious fitness and proper preparation.

Ride Experience - Canyons & Mounts

When Charlie from our team saddled up at Estancia 25 de Mayo Nature Reserve, we spent four hours on horseback cutting through Patagonian canyon country—the kind of landscape that makes you feel genuinely small. The ride weaves through ravines, creek crossings, and wind-carved rock formations that tell geological stories spanning millions of years. You're mixing proper horsemanship with gaucho culture and a proper country lunch tucked into a canyon shelter. It's not a trot-around-the-paddock affair; this demands intermediate riding chops and a decent fitness base.

N1 Coffee Tasting Experience in Buenos Aires

When Tom from our team tried the N1 Coffee Tasting Experience in Buenos Aires, he walked into a proper specialty coffee setup—the kind of place where single-origin beans from different continents get the full treatment. Over two and a half hours, you're guided through tasting and comparing rare varieties, learning to pick up flavours you'd normally miss. It's hands-on and educational without feeling like a lecture, and you leave actually understanding what makes one bean tick differently from another. The vibe is intimate, the coffee is fresh-roasted, and Buenos Aires' café culture provides the perfect backdrop for levelling up your palate.

Buenos Aires Asado Experience with Wine Pairing

When Noah from our team tried this Buenos Aires asado, we got the real deal — not a tourist performance, but a proper afternoon with local grill masters who know their craft. You're cooking your own empanadas, learning how to work the asado (that's the open-fire grill Argentines treat like religion), and tasting wines from across the country. It's four hours of eating, drinking, and picking up skills you'll actually use. The setting feels local, the vibe is relaxed, and you leave knowing why asado matters to porteños.

Transfer Moreno Glacier Full Day (roundtrip 6 hours)

When Mia from our team did this transfer, we found ourselves on a straightforward run down to Moreno Glacier in Los Glaciares National Park with a local driver who knew the region inside-out. It's a 7-hour round trip that gets you to one of Argentina's most striking natural attractions — a massive, constantly shifting wall of ice that calves into turquoise water. The drive itself winds through steppe country dotted with guanacos and southern beech forests, and your driver doubles as a cultural guide, filling the hours with stories about Patagonian life and how locals relate to this landscape. You'll see families, groups, and solo travellers heading the same way.

Private-Buenos Aires City Tour by Expert Guide w/Transportation.

When Noah from our BugBitten team booked this private Buenos Aires tour, we got a five-hour guided run through the city with an official local guide and dedicated driver — no rushing between stops, no tour bus crowds. LizAndreA and her partner have been guiding here since 2004, and they pitch the experience as customisable to your pace and interests. You'll hit the major neighbourhoods — think colonial plazas, tango heritage spots, maybe Recoleta Cemetery if the mood takes — and there's genuine wiggle room to stop for a coffee or chat with locals without the clock ticking. It's pitched as a personal tour where the guides read your vibe and adapt on the fly.

6 hours – 8 hoursfrom AUD $408

Private Tour of Buenos Aires and Delta del Tigre with Local Guide

When Alex from our BugBitten team ran this private tour, we got a proper taste of Buenos Aires' split personality — the gritty delta waterways north of the city, then the grand colonial streets and tango culture downtown. Eight hours packed a lot in: a boat cruise through the Tigre delta (one of the world's largest), a wander through the riverside town of Tigre itself, time loose at Puerto de Frutos craft market, and a guided drive through BA's iconic neighbourhoods. It's a solo or small-group setup with a bilingual guide steering the whole thing, so you move at your own pace without fighting tour-bus crowds.

Luján Wine Tasting Guided Experience with Lunch

When Lily from our BugBitten team ran this Luján de Cuyo wine tour, she got a proper look at why this region near Mendoza has earned the nickname 'land of Malbec'. The day hits two wineries — Caelum for a tasting and Chandon for a paired lunch — with a 40-45 minute drive from the city included. It's a relaxed six to eight hours focused on how these places actually work: the cellars, the history, the grapes. You'll roll in small groups with a professional driver, and by the end you'll have tasted some seriously good wine and eaten well.

Private Tour in Lujan de Cuyo Mendoza

When Jake from our BugBitten team booked this private Luján de Cuyo wine tour, he got exactly what he needed: a car and guide entirely to himself for six to eight hours, no set itinerary carved in stone. The region sits in Mendoza's heart, Argentina's premium wine country, where dusty valleys roll between Andes foothills and the vibe is low-key, wine-serious. You hit three wineries — two for proper tastings, one for a sit-down lunch — meaning the day balances learning with eating without rushing between coach-loads of tourists. It's the kind of tour that flexes around your pace and preferences, which beats the standard group grind.
