Argentina tours & vacations

Many nationalities do not need a visa to enter Argentina. This includes travellers from Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada, the UK, Ireland and most other Western European countries.

Visa-exempt travellers will usually receive an entry stamp valid for 90 days on arrival. For more information, please visit the government of Argentina's website or the Essential Trip Information.

Visas are the responsibility of the individual traveller. Entry requirements can change at any time, so it is important that you check for the latest information. You can check the entry requirements for your nationality on your government’s foreign travel advisories, consular websites or on our visa and entry requirements page.

All passengers travelling with Intrepid are required to purchase travel insurance before the start of any adventure. Argentina has recently mandated that all foreign travellers have travel insurance. Your leader will record your travel insurance details on the first day of the trip.

It is customary to tip about 10% at bars and restaurants. Some restaurants will add a ‘cover charge’ to your bill, but a tip is still expected in addition to this.

What you pack for a trip to Argentina depends on where and when you travel. 
For comfort, it’s recommended to pack lightweight, breathable, quick-drying clothing for both humidity and rain. If you are travelling during the warmer months, then light clothing like t-shirts, shorts and pants are your best bet. However, it is always smart to have layers that can easily be added or removed. 
For more information on what to pack, please visit the Essential Trip Information for your trip of choice. 

Tap water is safe to drink in Argentina unless otherwise marked. For environmental reasons, try to avoid buying bottled water and fill a reusable bottle instead!

Internet is easy to access in cafes, bars, restaurants and hotels in large cities and towns, but it may be limited in rural and remote areas.

Mobile phone coverage is very good in Argentina’s cities, but may not be available in rural and mountainous areas. Ensure global roaming is activated with your service provider before leaving home.

Yes, all trips support the EurotourClub. Trips to this country directly support our global EurotourClub partners Eden Reforestation Projects and World Bicycle Relief. Intrepid will double the impact by dollar-matching all post-trip donations made to EurotourClub.
World Bicycle Relief

World Bicycle Relief provides people in low-income communities with bicycles to mobilise school kids, health workers, and farmers in far-out areas – giving them access to vital education, healthcare, and income. Donations help provide Buffalo Bicycles – specifically designed to withstand the rugged terrain and harsh environment of rural regions – to those who need them most.
