About This Tour

A two-country classic that pairs tango nights in Buenos Aires and the thunder of Iguazu Falls with a Rio de Janeiro finale — Argentina and Brazil in one private itinerary. Eight of the eleven nights are in Argentina — four in Buenos Aires, then four more at Iguazu Falls on the Argentine side — before the route crosses into Brazil for the final three nights in Rio de Janeiro. Every night's hotel is confirmed in whichever country you're actually in that day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Honestly, less than a third of it. Eight nights are in Argentina — Buenos Aires and the Argentine side of Iguazu Falls — before the trip crosses into Brazil for three nights in Rio de Janeiro.
