Day 1 • Buenos Aires
Bienvenidos! Welcome to Argentina. You’ll arrive in Buenos Aires, Argentina’s capital, where you’ll be met at the airport and transferred to your hotel in the heart of the city. If you arrive early, maybe head to a local rooftop bar and enjoy the views of Buenos Aires with a cocktail. You’ll have a welcome meeting at 5 pm tonight, where you’ll meet your local leader and fellow travellers. After, head to the home of a porteno (person from Buenos Aires) for a traditional asado (barbecue) feast. Chat with your friendly host about all things Argentina while tucking into a spread of meats, provoleta cheese and plenty of local wine. If you want to keep the evening going, you could go to a post-dinner tango show.
