With its end of the world feel,&nbsp;Argentina attracts and surprises. Its very rich&nbsp;unique culture,&nbsp;its varied breath-taking scenery&nbsp;or even&nbsp;its dynamic and bustling capital city, Buenos Aires,&nbsp;mesmerise travellers. Whether you choose to concentrate on one area, or alternatively travel the breadth and width of the country,&nbsp;a trip to Argentina has what it takes to satisfy all your desires. Its landmass covers a part of the luxurious&nbsp;amazon forest, pampas plains, and also the steppes and glaciers of Patagonia for&nbsp;enthusiasts of extensive&nbsp;hikes and treks. Argentina also shares two of its geographical landmarks between its neighbours, who are witnesses to the incredible diversity that the country has to offer: in the north-east the majestic&nbsp;Iguazu Falls&nbsp;are divided into three parts; one in Brazil, another in Paraguay, and finally the most spectacular falls of the park which are home to the Devil’s Throat, on the Argentinian side. Nearly 4,300km from there, at the southernmost point of the country, Argentina covers a third of the legendary Tierra del Fuego, the rest of which is controlled by Chile.&nbsp;Ushuaïa&nbsp;still remains to this day the Eldorado of escapism in the hearts of adventurers. So, are you ready for your&nbsp;trip to Argentina&nbsp;?

Bariloche is Heaven on Earth if you love the great outdoors and have a penchant for chocolate! The town is charming and the surrounding forest seems to come straight out of Europe. The temptation to stay a while is unavoidable! You'll feel really at home! And if you're a foodie, you'll be pleased to know the area is famous for its chocolate and ice cream! You'll hear that its very touristy (yes, it is) and that it's a bit tacky, but I, for one, loved the place. There are some great walks, hikes, bike rides as well as climbing and skiing (from June to October). In other words, you won't get bored. The town's also a convenient departure point for a tour of the famous 7 lakes. If you have the time, spend a night on the Llao Llao Peninsula. The views are incredible and accommodation-wise there's something for all budgets, be it hostels, lodges, luxury spas etc. For my part, I pitched my tent! In short, if a tour of the south is on your <a href="/argentina/">Argentinian itinerary, </a>, don't miss out Bariloche!
