Argentina Cruise from Buenos Aires — 21 Days
20 nights · Argentina · Departs Buenos Aires (Argentina) · Visiting Ushuaia, Falkland Islands, South Georgia Island, Antarctic Peninsula · Aboard Lindblad Expeditions on the National Geographic Explorer
-
Days 1–2
Buenos Aires, Argentina
Buenos Aires is a city of broad boulevards, grand theatres and late dinners, with a distinctly Argentine pulse. From the port, explore La Boca’s vivid lanes or San Telmo’s antique market. Recoleta adds belle époque architecture; Palermo brings leafy parks, galleries and restaurants. Make time for a steakhouse and a tango performance, two traditions that give the capital its lasting character.
-
Day 2
Ushuaia, Argentina
Ushuaia sits between the Beagle Channel and the snow-streaked Martial Mountains, at Argentina’s far southern edge. Its harbor has long served as a gateway to Antarctica, while the town itself rewards a slower look. Ride the End of the World Train into Tierra del Fuego National Park, or tour the former prison museum. Here, wild landscapes begin just beyond the last streets.

Day 4
Falkland Islands
Stanley is the Falkland Islands’ small, windswept capital, where brightly painted houses face a harbour shaped by the South Atlantic. Step ashore for the islands’ seafaring history at the Historic Dockyard Museum, then browse shops along Ross Road. Beyond town, open moorland leads to beaches where gentoo and king penguins gather, with guided excursions offering the best access. Come prepared for changeable weather; here, wildlife and a hard-won sense of remoteness are the main attractions.

Day 8
South Georgia Island
South Georgia is no conventional port of call; this remote, mountainous island is reached by expedition ship. Vast king penguin colonies gather beside beaches crowded with elephant seals. At Grytviken, a former whaling station, visit the museum, the church and Ernest Shackleton’s grave. Come for wildlife on an extraordinary scale, and for the stark history etched into this subantarctic landscape.

Day 15
Antarctic Peninsula
The Antarctic Peninsula brings you within reach of Antarctica’s most dramatic scenery: mountain-backed glaciers, blue icebergs and sheltered bays. Most voyages cross the Drake Passage from Ushuaia, then explore by expedition ship and Zodiac, weather permitting. Watch for gentoo, chinstrap and Adélie penguins, seals and whales. Shore visits follow strict environmental rules, and plans can change with conditions. Expect few comforts ashore; the reward is a rare encounter with a continent still governed by ice and weather.
