Iguazu
More than 275 cascades line the 2.5-mile Iguazu Falls, which are wider than Victoria Falls and taller than Niagara Falls. The waterfall sits on the border of Brazil and Argentina, and you’ll enjoy dramatic views from both sides.
- Iguazu National Park: You’ll explore the subtropical forest that surrounds the falls, where you might spot anteaters, jaguars, and caymans.

Buenos Aires
Travel south along the coast to Buenos Aires, Argentina’s capital city and its cultural epicenter. The sultry sounds of tango music emanate from milongas (tango clubs)—and you’ll even take part in a free tango lesson while you’re here. The outdoor markets here (known as ferias) buzz with locals selling leather wares, incense, and traditional Argentinian garb.
- Casa Rosada Eva Peron delivered her epic speech from the balcony of this palace. You can’t miss its cotton-candy pink exterior.
- Cementerio de la Recoleta: The BBC named this one of the world’s best cemeteries. Marble statues and ornately carved stones mark the final resting places of former presidents, war heroes, and Eva Peron.
- Optional dining options: Head to a countryside ranch for a full-day gaucho party and Argentine barbecue ($99 additional fee), or take in a dinner and Tango dancing show ($79 additional fee). A tango lesson is included regardless of whether these optional additions have been purchased.
