When To Visit Argentina?

Since the length of both countries covers more than 4,300 km, it will depend entirely on where you are. For Patagonia (South of Argentina), November to March is the high season. Even though it is not a bad idea to come during this time to maximize the chance of getting good weather, you will also have to deal with the crowds and the overbooked buses and tours. The best time to avoid the crowd is the shoulder season from October to November when the crowd is manageable, and you get the beautiful spring landscape. For Easter Island, late January to mid-February is the best time, as the annual Tapati festival is taking place with concerts and events all over the island. For Iguazu Falls, February to March is recommended, as the water level is still quite high, and the sky is mostly clear. It can be quite humid during this time, but you will cool off immediately once you get close to the falls. For the Atacama desert, any time between September and March is good, but be sure to be in the Atacama during the moonless nights to see the stars.

How to Get to Argentina?

Browse through Skyscanner or Expedia to find a cheap flight from where you live to Santiago (SCL), and from there, you can find either an overnight bus or a cheap flight to Atacama Airport (CJC).

How To Get Around Argentina?

Argentina is not a cheap country, so buses are the perfect solution for long-distance trips. Though not very punctual, overnight buses are very comfortable and cover most of the popular tourist locations. Be sure to get the Cama seat for your overnight buses. For Argentina, Andesmar or ViaBariloche are great options for long-distance trips, whereas for domestic flights, I would recommend Aerolineas Argentinas for their price and coverage.
