Argentina, A growing holiday country

Argentina offers the opportunities and locations to become one of the largest tourism countries of the world, http://www.whatargentina.com/visit-argentina.html that was the main thought i had after leaving this wonderful country. Argentina has a wide diversity of touristic places to visit, it really is a complete country that contains everything in one country and then i mean for example:

Hi, my name is Frans van den Heuvel and me and my family were in Argentina. In the beginning i was a little bit sceptical about this country, but after visiting the country i knew one thing for sure, Argentina has it all and then i mean ALL. This story goes about our experiences during our visit.

Do you want to join me with my presentation ?

Buenos Aires

We arrived on a warm september day in Buenos Aires Ezeiza aiport where our friends were waiting for us, to bring us tovour hotel, close, very close to a railway, so we slept there for only one night and then we moved towards a hotel in the centre of Buenos Aires, and do you think those hotels are expensive, welll they aren't. Buenos Aires is a large metropole with two faces, the one side is very rich and the other side is sadly poor, living on the garbage fields just outside Buenos Aires. But what makes Buenos Aires famouse is the wonderful atmosphare the city shows you, where most people are friendly and helpful and the city will give you a feeling you are at home. I did not believe it when i read this story on other websites about Argentina, but after being there, i can tell you, Buenos Aires, will give you a feeling you are at home. The old inner city is very beautiful and the new side of the city, near the ocean, shows that Argentina is growing to return towards one of the richest countries it once was.

Buenos Aires is famouse about one dance, which is ofcourse the Tango, don't look weird if a woman ask you if you want to dance the Tango with her on the streets of Boca. I thought the area of Boca was a big area, but actually it is just for about 2 or 3 streets around the stadium La Bombonera of Club Boca Juniors.

This stadium breezes the real authentic atmosphare of a real stadium, not surrounded with all kinds of offices, but it is just the stadium, From the outside it looks beautiful, but when going to the inside, i was wondering when it would collapse. But don't walk over the grass there, because its grass is one of the most secured area of the Boca Area.

Another thing what makes Buenos Aires and Argentina famouse is its steaks, not from those small pieces we get served here in Europe, but big thibk and wonderful tasing slices of steaks.

The public transportation in Argentina is arranged very well. Argentina has chosen for a busstravel system for making travels towards the other cities in Argentina. Don't be surprised you need to sit in a bus for about 14-16 hours (mostly at night) when you want to travel form one city towards another city. You have 3 options when travelling by buss, which are super class, extends class and normal class.

Super class travel busses contain very comfortable chairs which can be transformed in very comfortable beds. You are really lying horizontal in the buss.

Extended class travel busses form which you put the chairs in such a sleeping position likre in an airplane, but a little bit betterand more comfortable

Normal class, travel busses like we used here in Europe

Drinks and diner is served inside the buss and the whole tour some good movies are shown. If you want to book a busticket click on the link below

Bus travel organisations are for example: Via Bariloche http://www.viabariloche.com.ar (a white and Green buss with extreme good services. You are doing good to book your places according to their website.

But there are a lot more buss companies.

Another way to travel through Argentina is by domestic aiplane, a ticket between for examp,le Buenos Aires and Bariloche will cost you around the 250 euro each. One advise, don''t take the train to make long distance travel, because the train system is not good and old, although they are improving it, because since begin last year, Argentina also has the TGV in some cities.

for the rest Buenos Aires will make your holiday become a very pleasant stay, people are helpful and friendly and the city wil surprise you. Walk for example over one of the widest street of the world, which is the freeway at the same time called the Panamerican Highway.

Whales in Argentina

Puerto Madryn is the place in the period between September and Januari if you want to see whales and when you want to see whales, do don't even need to take a boat and sneter the Atlantic Ocean, you can remain on the beach and the whales will swim about 30-50 metres away from the beach and this is not a joke.

The city of Puerto Madryn, is famouse of its whales because the city has the ideal cirumstances for whales to give birth to their whale child. Ofcourse there is also a tour through a national nature parc and there you can see among others, pinguins, Sea Lions, Orca's (if you have a little bit luck) and Sea dogs. Every animal lives in  a open but separated area in the national parc. The tour through this national parc offers also a farm where sheep are cut from the wool manually.
