Public transportation is a great way to explore Argentina too, especially in Buenos Aires where you have plenty of options such as Subway, Metrobus, or Taxi. This kind of transportation is less stressful than driving in the Big City, and you will be able to enjoy all the activities Buenos Aires has to offer. Anyway, the whole country is connected by bus, and you have many options to travel around it.

Family holidays with dogs

Argentina offers many opportunities to travel with families and of course with toddlers. Buenos Aires and Iguazú are the best options if you are traveling with toddlers.

Family holidays with waterpark

A great family trip idea during your family vacation is to visit a waterpark. Some of the waterparks you will find in Argentina are:

Aquafan: located in Tigre, near Buenos Aires City
Patagonia Splash: located in Neuquen
Salto Grande: in Concordia, Entre Ríos

Let this splashy adventure begin!

Which is the best season for going on a family holiday?

In Argentina, the four seasons are well distinguished. For example: If you love cold weather, Patagonia is ideal during winter, and even during the summer when landscapes change dramatically. On the contrary, Buenos Aires features cold weather during winter and hot temperatures combined with high humid averages during summer. If you’re more into warm temperatures you can go up to Northern Argentina, but only during winter. During summer it can be unbearably hot and dry, plus it is the rainy season. On the contrary, in Iguazú Falls you can enjoy hot super humid weather almost the whole year.

What are the best things to do in each season?

In Argentina, you can go as adventurous as you want, or even keep things slow down during your entire trip. For example, if you’re in Patagonia for the winter you definitely should go skiing in Bariloche in Cerro Catedral and enjoy their kids’ skiing activities. Or go whale watching in Puerto Madryn from July to December, during springtime. Summer is the perfect time of the year to go kayaking and rafting on white rapids in El Chaltén. Of course, there are activities that you can do any time of the year, like horseback riding in Mendoza, or taking a bike tour to discover Buenos Aires.

How many days are recommended for a family vacation?

Of course, Argentina is a great country with lots of things to see and do. We will always recommend staying all of the time you can! But if we talk about the bare minimum, it would be at least a week. Within 7 days you will be touring around Buenos Aires and you can take short trips to the nearest destinations like Iguazú Falls and Misiones. To visit Patagonia or even North Argentina, you will need a minimum of 15 days. Distances in Argentina are especially long and flight connections don’t abound.

Which are the cheapest destinations for family holidays?

On top of the list, there is Nothern Argentina. We always recommend buying locally and helping improve native economies. Not only you will buy cheaper, but you will be making a tremendous cultural exchange! You can also go on a self-drive trip to Patagonia, a cheaper option to an always expensive destination. And finally, there is the big city, Buenos Aires, with its varied offer of accommodation, transport, and cultural spectacles suitable for all budgets. There are many entrance-free museums and activities in Buenos Aires. Also, public transport is cheaper in the city than in any other place in the country. And subways are very useful to explore the city.

What should I pack for my family trip to Argentina?

It will always depend on the place and time of the year you are planning to travel If you’re traveling to Iguazú (no matter what time of the year) we recommend light clothes, sunglasses, hats, sun protectors, and a lot of repellents! It’s a very humid place, so get ready to wet your clothes especially when you go on the Iguazú Falls boat excursion. To visit Patagonia, you should be ready for cold weather. You should dress in layers. And take trekking boots; globes, a very warm coat, and a windbreaker for hiking and boat trips are essentials. For Buenos Aires, nothing very special to say (winter is pretty cold and summer very humid). However, it’s a city with great nightlife, so you would probably want something fancier, but not much. Dinner starts at 9 pm for locals, but restaurants keep the kitchen open almost 24/7 hours. 9 pm with a bit more fancy clothes depending on where you’re heading!

Reforestarg: Planting trees in Patagonia

In Partnership with Reforestarg, we plant 10 trees per every traveler giving back to the land that inspires us.

We plant those trees in the Rio Tigre Natural Reserve, a region located on the outskirts of Cholila, a village nestled at the foothills of the Andes Mountains range in the province of Chubut. This area has endured numerous wildfires, resulting in the devastation of several hectares of native forest.

We’re planting two tree species: Cypress and Coihue. These native trees are renowned for their durability and strength. Planting them contributes to the restoration of the unique ecosystem in this area.

Cypress is essential for Patagonia due to its cold resistance, ability to prevent soil erosion, and value for local wildlife. On the other hand, Coihue plays a crucial role by providing food and shelter to species, in addition to its resilience to forest fires and its rapid recovery after them.

These trees not only benefit the Patagonia biodiversity but also play a pivotal role in mitigating climate change by absorbing CO2 as they grow.

Plastic Free

We decided to encourage our local operators and travelers to bring their own reusable bottles and gear to reduce this impact. Also, in our offices, we apply this plastic-free philosophy!

Say Hueque’s Offices

We collect and recycle non-reusable batteries.
Nearly 60 people work in our offices, and we all decided to bring reusable bowls to have lunch.

We compost! Reduce waste, please

Local Community

We are committed to helping our travelers connect with locals and encouraging local businesses by working with local transportation, restoration, and accommodation companies.

Climate Emergency Declaration & Future of Tourism

We have signed the initiative of the Tourism Declares Climate Emergency, and also the Guiding Principles of Future of Tourism, a group of six NGOs that work together to promote a new consciousness of the change our industry needs.
