EXPERIENCES

We will discover the gastronomic and cultural essence of San Telmo, the oldest neighborhood in the city. We will taste more than 10 dishes and drinks in 3 selected restaurants plus the Market, walking through its cobblestone streets while learning about its history. Our food-loving guides will enrich the experience by sharing stories about the food, culture, and porteño customs. Availability is from Tuesday to Saturday, in both English and Spanish; the total duration is 3h 30', with no more than 40' of walking. The starting point is El Federal bar (Carlos Calvo 599) and it ends at Iceland (Defensa 1105).

Parque das Aves is an internationally recognized rescue and conservation centre for birds, located in the middle of the rich and exuberant Atlantic Rainforest, neighbor of the Iguaçu National Park. Backstage Experience is your opportunity to have a look during a tour that lasts 1 ½ hours. It includes access to restricted areas and the privileged contact with some birds, featuring feeding of toucans and other species and the opportunity to better understand the conservation and rescue programs at Parque das Aves. Visit includes Baby Station (get to know a baby bird and understand how the incubation room works), Psittacine training (learn about the importance of training for birds and the technical team) and Toucan feeding (join our technical team in feeding toucans) At the end of the experience, you will be taken to an outdoor deck in the middle of a butterfly garden, and have the privilege of interacting with a macaw and getting to know a boa constrictor, as well as refreshing yourself with seasonal drinks and fruits. Since animal welfare is our absolute priority, the content of the tours can vary without further notice.

Every land has its own secrets but not everyone is chosen to know them: a lighthouse in a lonely cape, a mysterious sunken ship for 40 years and a distinguished antique “estancia” are some of the icons that reveal the unknown stories of Tierra del Fuego. Very early in the morning departure from Ushuaia following National Route 3 and crossing The Andes through the Garibaldi Pass. We stop by the little town of Tolhuin, heart of the island, to visit La Unión Bakery. This is a traditional meeting point for both, locals and visitors, and it is part of the charm of this village. By midday we come to the Provincial Route “A”, where we took a gravel road heading toward the Atlantic Ocean and the San Pablo Cape. At this point, we hiked up to an isolated mountain with an abandoned lighthouse at the end. Climbing to the top of this beacon we will appreciate “Desdemona”, an abandoned ship for almost 40 years ago which invites us to sail through time. It happened on a cold winter morning in1983 when this enormous craft ran aground on the shores of the Argentine Sea. After exploring this mysterious giant, we visit Estancia Rolito. This lovely ranch, that keeps the spirit of a family business based on sheep farming tradition, is the first ranch to open its gates to rural tourism.
