Crafting Argentina Experiences · One Journey at a Time
Crafting Argentina Experiences · One Journey at a Time
If you are a single traveler over 60, you do not have to choose between a group and going alone. You join a small group for excursions, where company and a shared guide make the day easier. Your hotel, your free days and your meals stay yours, at your own pace. If you would rather travel with a group for the whole trip, we arrange that too.
You choose the dates, and we build the route around how you like to travel: the glacier walkways of El Calafate, Mendoza’s wine country, Buenos Aires and Iguazú Falls, with private transfers, English-speaking local guides and hotels checked for elevators and step-free access. Every trip below is a route we run, with a from-price and a pace rating, so you can compare before you write to us.
November to March brings mild days (10 to 20°C) and long daylight hours, ideal for glacier boardwalks at a calm pace. October and April are quieter, with lower prices.
Pleasant in every season. March to May and September to November offer the best walking weather (15 to 25°C) for neighborhoods, cafés and milongas.
Harvest season (February to April) is the highlight: tastings, gentle vineyard lunches and dry, sunny days. Spring (October to December) is a close second.
Open all year. March to September avoids the strongest heat and humidity, the walkways are far more comfortable below 30°C. The Rainforest Ecological Train and the flat Upper Circuit make the falls one of the easiest major sights in Argentina, and an easy add-on to Buenos Aires.

Five routes we run regularly with travellers over 60, many of them solo, sorted from shortest to longest. Pace tells you what each day asks of you, not how far you fly. All prices are approximate.

Prices are per person, from, for the current season, and change with season and hotel category. Every itinerary is tailor-made: the pace shown is the standard version, and every Moderate activity has an Easy alternative you can choose on the day.

You travel solo. You are not on your own. Company by day, space by night.
If you are a single traveler over 60, you do not have to choose between a group and going alone. You join a small group for excursions, where company and a shared guide make the day easier. Your hotel, your free days and your meals stay yours, at your own pace. If you would rather travel with a group for the whole trip, we arrange that too. Some travelers combine Argentina with Peru or Chile: see our South America tours for seniors. For solo travel at any age, including how shared departures and the single supplement work, see our solo travel in Argentina.
Our team in Argentina builds your route with you and stays reachable on WhatsApp and by phone for the whole trip. When you pay your deposit you receive the hotel and excursion vouchers with the name and phone number of the person who will answer. Our guides speak English; if you prefer another language, tell us when we build the route.
Excursions, park entrances and boat days, with a shared guide. Day trips from your base, so the company comes with the plan. Small groups on shared excursions. Guides who speak English; another language if you ask when we build the route.
Free days with nothing booked. Your hotel and your own room, in walkable neighborhoods. Meals with the group or on your own: Buenos Aires and Mendoza are easy cities to spend an evening alone. At remote lodges and estancias we tell you before you book which ones are quiet.
On the day you land, our team checks that the transfer, the hotel and the next day are as agreed.
The person in Argentina who answers is on your vouchers, by WhatsApp and by phone.
If a flight runs late or the wind closes a trail, we rearrange the day before you have to ask.
Send us the policy summary before you pay. We flag anything that does not match your itinerary, including medical cover abroad.
Send the written route to one person you trust before you leave.
Add our WhatsApp number before you fly, so help is one message away.
Mention any medical need when we build the route, and every day is planned around it.
Keep your insurance summary on your phone, with the emergency number.
Send your dates and how you like to travel. A person writes back within 24 hours with a route that marks the effort level of each day, before any payment.
Every trip in our Argentina tours for solo travelers over 60 can be adjusted for a slower pace. Tell us your priorities, fewer flights, more time in one region, no high altitude stops, and we rework the route. That is the advantage of a local expert we select and stand behind: one conversation instead of a fixed catalog. Popular requests include private transfers between cities, extra rest days on longer trips, and rooms near elevators or on lower floors.

Reference prices. All values in this table are approximate and do not update with the exchange rate, so they can differ slightly from the price cards above. The starting prices above are planning references, not a closed quote. Your travel advisor confirms the final price of every trip according to your chosen dates, availability and number of travelers.
Every itinerary in the table above carries a rating. Here is exactly what each one asks of you, so you can judge for yourself, not guess.
How it works
You tell us what you want to live. We connect you with a local expert who knows how to make it happen.
Share your dates, who is traveling and what you care about: wine, glaciers, hiking, food, wildlife.
We know South America and who does what best. We select the local expert whose experience fits your interests and travel style, and we stand behind their work.
You and your local expert shape the itinerary day by day, until it is the trip you imagined.
Real people across South America, always on call, in the language you need.
Most trips are built from scratch. Prefer a ready made route? See our ready made routes
No payment is asked for a trip that has not been checked first. This is what you commit to at each point and what you get back.
Before asking for a deposit we confirm the hotels and the fixed-time excursions on your actual dates, or on the day either side. If something is not available, you hear it now, not after paying.
The booking becomes definite with a deposit of 50% of the total, and the balance is due 45 days before departure. Both figures are in your written quote. Our booking terms set out in writing what happens if you need to change or cancel, including the Flex and Super Flex options, so you can read them before you pay rather than after.
Once the deposit is in, you receive the hotel and excursion vouchers, with the name and phone number of the person in Argentina who will answer during your trip.
One contact, with a name, on WhatsApp and by phone for the whole trip. Your guides speak English, and if you would rather be guided in another language, tell us when we build the route and we plan it in. If a flight runs late or the wind closes a trail, the plan moves before you have to ask.
Send us as much information as you can to customize your argentina trip. We’ll be happy to help create new experiences based on your thoughts and likes. Our goal is to make the best trip you’ve ever dreamed!

Not every traveler over 55 wants the same thing, and it’s worth being honest about that before you book. A senior-focused tour makes sense if you’d rather trade the adrenaline of backpacking for the reassurance of a well-planned route, if you appreciate having a guide who can slow down without being asked twice, or if traveling with people in a similar life stage sounds appealing rather than limiting.
It’s not really about age as a number, plenty of 70-year-olds hike glaciers, and plenty of 58-year-olds prefer a slower morning and a good espresso before sightseeing. What matters is pace, physical comfort, and having support nearby if something unexpected comes up. If that sounds like your travel style, this is the right place to start planning.
Argentina has a way of feeling both grand and gentle at once. You can watch ice calve off a glacier the size of a city, then retreat to a cozy lodge with a glass of Malbec an hour later. The country’s tourism infrastructure, particularly around Buenos Aires, Mendoza, and El Calafate, has matured enough that comfort and adventure no longer compete with each other.
There’s also the human side of it. Argentine culture treats older travelers with a warmth that’s hard to manufacture elsewhere; waiters slow down, guides check in without hovering, and there’s rarely a rush to move you along. Combine that with English-speaking local guides, private transport options, and hotels chosen specifically for accessibility, and you get a destination that feels considerate rather than exhausting.
A few specific things set these itineraries apart from a standard tourist package, and they’re worth spelling out clearly.
Want the wider picture? See all our tours for seniors across South America.
Multi-region trips in Argentina involve internal flights, long transfers and changing weather. That complexity is ours and your local expert’s, not yours, this is how it works from first email to your return home.
Your local expert maps the route to your pace: fewer flights, more nights per stop, rooms near elevators. You receive the full itinerary with every transfer, flight and effort level in writing, plus a pre-trip checklist (documents, insurance, packing by region).
Private drivers meet you at every airport. Your guides know your name and your pace by day two, and you have one named contact in Argentina on WhatsApp and by phone: a delayed flight or a closed trail is rerouted before it becomes your problem.
Lost something in a hotel, need an invoice for your insurance, or want to plan the next region? The person who looked after your trip follows up after it, most of our senior travelers come back for a second route.
Patagonian weather changes fast, and we plan for it. Every key day has a same-region backup: if wind closes the glacier boat, you visit the walkways from a different angle; if a pass is closed, we swap days within your itinerary. Wherever the schedule allows, we rebook the highlight inside your trip at no extra cost.
Buenos Aires, Mendoza and El Calafate have modern private clinics; our guides know the nearest one in every region and carry first-aid kits. Pharmacies are widespread and most common prescriptions are available, bring yours in original packaging.
Travel insurance is not included in our prices. We recommend medical policies with coverage for travelers over 60, including trip interruption. Before you buy, we review your itinerary with you so the policy actually matches the activities you’ll do.
The classic senior routes, Buenos Aires, Patagonia, Iguazú, Mendoza, stay below 1,000 m. Only Salta, Jujuy and Atacama extensions climb higher; if they interest you, we pace the ascent over days.
The regions on these routes are Argentina’s most visited, with mature tourism infrastructure. With private transfers and a guide who handles the logistics, you avoid the two real friction points: night buses and unlicensed taxis. Standard city precautions apply in Buenos Aires, and your guide will tell you exactly which ones.
Every quote we send lists this in writing, trip by trip. As a rule, this is how an Argentina package is built.
Hotels selected and checked by our team; private transfers between airports, hotels and excursions; excursions with English-speaking local guides; entrance fees to the national parks listed in your itinerary; daily breakfast and the meals marked day by day; a local WhatsApp support line for the whole trip.
International flights to and from Argentina; travel insurance; meals not marked in the itinerary; personal expenses and gratuities; optional activities, which we price in writing beforehand. Domestic flights between regions are quoted separately or included depending on the package, and your quote states which, with the amount. Argentina is a long country and these flights matter to the total, so we never leave them implied.
Argentina runs four thousand kilometres from north to south, so weather is always local. When a storm holds a boat in Patagonia or rain cuts a road in the northwest, we move that visit inside your itinerary and bring forward whatever works that day. Wherever the schedule allows, we rebook the highlight inside your trip at no extra cost.
