Argentina has incredible landscapes and is blessed with numerous national parks. Iguazu Falls, with 275 separate waterfalls, is the most extensive waterfall system in the world. 

Plus, this talk will include: gauchos, the Andes Mountains, Argentine wine, tango dancers, glaciers, Argentine beef, and Tierra del Fuego. And the capital city, Buenos Aires, whose architecture can remind you of Paris in the 1920s.
