South American Adventures in Argentina and Uruguay...

 

Last January 2020, just as the pandemic was beginning to ravish Europe, we traveled to South America with Viking Ocean Cruises "South America & the Chilean Fjords". We embarked in Buenos Aires and traveled to Santiago, Chile. This particular video shows highlights of our arrival in Buenos Aires and our travels through Argentina and Uruguay. It was a wonderful trip and I highly recommend

Key excursions that are featured....

A TASTE OF ARGENTINE GENEROSITY: Dining with local Argentinians was a delight. We traveled by motor coach to our host's home and experienced a typical 3-course dinner. Visiting local homes is one of our favorite choices for excursions. Conversing with locals and learning more about their culture is something we enjoy. 

PARANÁ DELTA & RIVER CRUISE: Another excursion while in Buenos Aires was cruising the Parana Delta which is north of the capital. It is an idyllic stretch of small islands and canals is one of the world's largest deltas. City dwellers enjoy escaping to this destination and being immersed in nature. There were several very unusual villas and tiny islands, some built on stilts over the water. Most are only accessible by boat. 

Discover Viña Juanico Winery: One of Montevideo's most outstanding wineries provided us with an interesting tour and of course wine tasting with delicious platters of cheese and cold cuts. This is an organic winery that produces 1.5 million gallons per year. 

All in all, this cruise is one of my Top 10 from Viking. I often get asked, "What is your favorite cruise/destination?" That's often difficult because we have found joy in all of our adventures. We hope to travel again soon as I'm sure you do as well.

In the meantime, please stay safe and find joy and light in your life.

Happy travels,
