All of Latin America is very family-focused, but Argentina<\/a> offers families something extra-special. The country\u2019s diversity in landscape and experience make it one of the most beautiful places in the world, and you can experience everything from glaciers to salt flats to a tropical ecosystem. A vacation here is perfect for those seeking an active trip paired with memorable cultural experiences. Yet for many, it gets lost in the shuffle, falling behind trips to Machu Picchu<\/a> and the Gal\u00e1pagos Islands<\/a> on the South America bucket list.<\/p>\n

The Ciao Bambino Travel Advisor team<\/a> works with vetted travel partners who have an intimate knowledge of the region in order to create custom itineraries tailored to each client\u2019s interests and mix of ages. After returning from a visit with his own family, one of our preferred partners shared his insights for exploring Argentina with kids. Here are the essentials to keep in mind.<\/p>\n

Top Tips for Visiting Argentina with Kids<\/h2>\n

Picking the Right Age<\/h3>\n

Many areas in Argentina are good for school-age kids and up. Just keep in mind that the more active you want to be, the older the kids must be to participate in and enjoy the experience. Since the glacier regions (mostly in Patagonia<\/a>) require more trekking, they\u2019re best saved for teens or young adults. However, the Lake District offers estancias, or ranches, that are perfect for families and include activities like canoeing, kayaking and horseback riding for those as young as 5.<\/p>\n

When to Go<\/h3>\n

One of the nice things about Argentina is that families can visit during school holidays \u2014 winter or summer. Plan on spending at least 10 to 12 days to see two to three areas within the country. High season is typically November through March, with the busiest time between Christmas and New Year\u2019s; however, you can enjoy a visit year-round if you choose the right part of the country. To visit the glacier regions, you\u2019ll need to plan your trip between October and April. September through November are especially lovely in Buenos Aires, as the city\u2019s purple jacaranda trees are blooming at every turn.<\/p>\n

June through September is Argentina\u2019s winter, but in many areas the temperatures will only get down into the 40s and will warm up to the 60s and 70s during the day. Argentina has ski resorts in the Andes and in Patagonia, and the season runs roughly from June through late September\/early October, with July and August being the peak months.<\/p>\n

Areas like Mendoza, known for its wine tasting and horseback riding, and Salta, which is the outdoor adventure capital of Argentina, are ideal for visiting during the Northern Hemisphere\u2019s summer break, as the crowds are thinner and the prices are lower.<\/p>\n

Where to Go<\/h3>\n

Argentina is enormous, and with such a diverse landscape in such a large country, you\u2019ll need to be selective about where to go. When visiting multiple regions, it\u2019s most efficient to fly between them to maximize your time (flights usually take just an hour or two, but you may need to build in travel days depending on routes \u2014 you will often need to connect through Buenos Aires).
