In this week's epsiode, we're highlighting Buenos Aires, the metropolitan city, architecture-rich, foodie city in Argentina. We tour the city, immerse ourselves in its history, patroned its rooftop bars, and spent a day at a traditional Guacho Party at the Santa Susana Ranch.

Episode Highlights:

• Tips for visiting Buenos Aires, like getting an ⁠e-sim⁠
• City Highlights: The Obelisk & Teatro Colon
• Buenos Aires City tour with stops to Plaza de Mayo, Casa Rosada, Metropolitan Cathedral, La Boca neighborhood, & Recoleta Cemetery
• Learning how to Tango & going to a Tango show
• Gaucho Party at the Santa Susana Ranch

We stayed right near the Obelisk, at the ⁠Buenos Aires Marriott⁠. This was a really great location because it was close to Florida St, the Obelisk, Teatro Colon, as well as variety of restaurants and coffee shops. There is so much to do and see in Buenos Aires, so be sure to check out all of the tours we think are worth doing in our ⁠Buenos Aires Viator Shop⁠.

This Buenos Aires trip was a continuation of a Gate1 guided tour that started in ⁠Rio de Janeiro, Brazil⁠ and then went to ⁠Iguazu Falls⁠ so go back and listen to those episodes too!

We’re taking you to Iguazu Falls, one of the world's greatest natural wonders and largest waterfalls. It has 75 separate cataracts across a span of two and one-half miles, wider than Victoria Falls and higher than Niagara Falls and more dramatic than both. 80% of the falls are on the Argentinian side and 20% are on the Brazilian side.

Episode Highlights:

• Visiting the Brazilian side of the falls including Devil's Throat

• Visiting the Argentinian side of the falls via the Upper Circuit

• Gran Adventura boat ride to the falls

Where to stay in Iguazu Falls: We loved our stay at⁠ Loi Suites⁠, but if you love a luxury stay then consider staying at the ⁠Gran Melia⁠.

Don't forget your bug spray!! This is a very tropical, lush, humid area and you will need it. We live and die by this⁠ Sawyer insect repellent⁠!

In this episode we go to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and share where we stayed, all the best things to do in Rio and share a few tips we learned that will make your visit to Rio a success, like using an ⁠airalo e-sim⁠.

We stayed right on Copacabana beach at the ⁠Windsor Leme Hotel⁠. The rooftop pool had fantastic views of the beach and the dining area had views of the Christ the Redeemer statue. Another great beach is Ipanema Beach and ⁠Atlantis Copacabana Hotel⁠ straddles both Ipanema and Copacabana beaches.
