This is a Silver category itinerary. Silver category itineraries feature fewer and different tours than the Gold category and may include fewer nights in some destinations. While still offering first-class tours, they provide a less exclusive and comprehensive travel experience.
Gold category itineraries include the best tours in each destination, typically offered privately or in small groups to provide a first-class and in-depth travel experience. Airport transfers are private in all destinations, ensuring comfort and convenience.
If you prefer a more in-depth and exclusive itinerary for this trip duration and destinations, please let me know and I'll be glad to design a customized Gold category itinerary for you.
If this itinerary price is above your travel budget, please let me know and I'll be happy to design a Silver category trip which will have a much lower price.

For a worry‑free travel experience, we strongly advise letting us take care of your domestic flights. It’s common for local airlines to make several flight changes before (and sometimes during) a trip. Taking care of domestic flights will allow us to closely monitor any flight changes, adapting your trip itinerary as needed.
Our flight issuing service includes: flights booking, daily tracking of flight status and changes, reconfirmation with the airline of each flight before each departure, booking of your flight seats, web check-in (not available for all flights) and assistance with your flights arrangements if there is any flight delay, change or cancellation before or during your trip.
Argentina is a very large country, the 8th largest in the world, in fact! As such, traveling by land is too time-consuming. For example, a bus ride from Buenos Aires to Iguazu takes about 18 hours (as opposed to 1 hour and 50 minutes by plane), and the bus ride from Buenos Aires to El Calafate takes about 40 hours (as opposed to 3 hours and 15 minutes by plane).
Argentina is the eighth largest country in the world; its territory covers a huge spread of latitudes, so varying climate conditions coexist throughout the land.
We are a 3 generational family, group of 10 and have been all over the world together. Fred and his team were by far the best travel experts we have used

| Domestic Airfare |
| Starts at $ per person |
| Subject to availability at the time of booking |
Prices for domestic flights depend exclusively on their availability at the time of booking, usually with much lower rates available for flights booked well in advance. So the sooner you book your trip, the lower the airfare you'll pay (the most expensive airfares are a lot higher than the most promotional ones).
As soon as we receive your feedback about your itinerary we'll check for flights availability and let you know which are the best flights for your trip and which is the lowest airfare available.
For your comfort and peace of mind, we can take care of booking your domestic flights for you. Our services include:
• Checking all available flight options to recommend the best itinerary and fare for your trip
• Flight booking and ticket issuance
• Daily monitoring of flight status and schedule changes
• Reconfirmation of each flight with the airline prior to departure
• Seat selection and booking
• Online check-in (when available)
• Assistance with your flight arrangements in case of delays, changes, or cancellations before or during your trip
Letting us take care of your domestic flight arrangements will let you enjoy a worry‑free travel experience, as it is very common for local airlines to make flight changes before (and sometimes during) a trip.
International airfare to and from Argentina is not included.
Tips to hotel staff, tour guides, etc.
Anything not expressly mentioned in this itinerary proposal.
Domestic flights have a 80% penalty if cancelled, but as we book flexible airfares, they can be changed if needed for future dates with no penalty as long as the same airfare is available for the new dates (if not we can change them with no change penalty but paying for the airfare difference).
For all ground service payments (including hotels, tours and transfers) which have already been made, at the time we receive written notice that you must cancel your trip, the following fees will be charged:
We’ll always try our best to get as much of a refund as possible, depending on the trip cancellation date, and the conditions of the service suppliers.
Refunds will only be issued to you once we have received the funds back from the supplier(s). Generally, flight tickets cannot be refunded if they are partially used. We are not responsible for a supplier’s failure to pay a refund.
If the reason for your cancellation is covered under the terms of your travel insurance policy, you may be able to claim these cancellation charges through your insurance company.
When you are ready to proceed with booking your trip, please visit your trip booking form and fill out the required information to begin the process. A non-refundable down payment of USD 250 (or USD 400 for trips booked with very short notice) is required to process your booking. This down payment will be credited towards your total trip payment. Regardless of the number of travelers, only one down payment is needed.
If any services in your itinerary are unavailable (e.g., a selected hotel is fully booked on your travel dates), we will provide alternative options. While we always aim to book the exact hotels our guests select, availability can change quickly, especially in popular destinations. In such cases, we will arrange a comparable alternative that offers a similar level of comfort and convenience.
The trip booking process generally takes from 2 to 4 business days. Once all services are booked, we will send you an invoice with the trip booking confirmation and payment instructions. If your trip start date is in fewer than 60 days, we’ll request a full trip payment. If not, we’ll request a first payment of 25% to 35% of the total trip cost, with final payment due 60 days before your trip start date.
We accept all major credit cards (we use PayPal as a credit card processor but you won't need a PayPal account to make your credit card payment), bank wire transfers or check deposits. Our prices are final, you won't have to pay anything extra no matter what payment method you use.
