Two great experiences to end the trip: San Telmo and Boca Juniors. San Telmo on Sunday is something you don't want to miss and once again I'm grateful you all talked me into it. Such an extraordinary neighborhood with cobblestone streets and beautiful structures, and outdoor markets that seem...

Huge thanks to everyone for talking me into Iguazu, holy bananas that place is awesome and not at all like Niagara. I did almost no planning but had a fantastic time in less than 24 hours. I was schedule to land around 4:30pm yesterday and start with the full moon tour, but flight was delayed...

More great neighborhoods and restaurants! We walked all over Chacarita yesterday afternoon which was wonderful, stopped at a couple of good cafes and ate lunch at Esquina. Dinner was at Gran Bar Danzon which is a great spot. As usual we were leaving just as the place was revving up with...

Hi All, I've been lurking here for a few weeks and picked up many ideas and insights, so thanks for all your contributions! I'm visiting BA in mid-August with my old university roommate and want to take a side trip for a couple of days, any thoughts on Mendoza vs Bariloche? We're both mid-50s...
