The brief

Argentina — Buenos Aires, Mendoza vines and the Lake District.

Buenos Aires for the most European city in Latin America (Palacio Duhau, the long parrilla dinner, San Telmo on Sunday). Mendoza for the Malbec country (The Vines). Bariloche and Llao Llao for the Patagonian lakes. Iguazu Falls for the great natural close.

Pair with Chile for the classic Patagonian fortnight, or with Uruguay for a beach finish.
