Patagonia & Iguazu Falls vacation, Argentina

Planet

As a local Argentina B Corp Travel Company, we hold a deep appreciation for the Earth's natural wonders and understand the importance of their preservation. However, we believe that sustainability alone is insufficient. Travel, in our view, is a potent instrument for creating a positive impact on the destinations we explore.

CARBON REDUCTION

-Low-Carbon and Human-Powered Activities
This itinerary prioritizes low-impact exploration through walking, trekking, and canoeing experiences across Argentina’s most spectacular natural settings. Guests hike through Tierra del Fuego National Park and kayak along the Lapataia River, sail on Lake Argentino to the Perito Moreno Glacier, and walk the extensive trails of Iguazú National Park. These human-powered adventures not only reduce emissions but also allow travelers to connect directly with the country’s ecosystems.

-Optimized Travel and Shared Transportation
Although domestic flights are required due to Argentina’s vast geography, the route is designed to minimize redundant air segments. On-site, ground transfers are shared or conducted in small groups to reduce the CO2 impact per traveler. Overland connections, such as the El Calafate to Puerto Iguazú route, are managed efficiently to balance comfort and sustainability.

-Sustainable Gastronomy
Vegetarian and vegan options are available daily, especially during the Tango Dinner Show and throughout Patagonia and Iguazú. Travelers are encouraged to dine at local restaurants that source ingredients regionally and seasonally, supporting local farmers and reducing food miles.


ENVIRONMENT AND WILDLIFE

-Support for Protected Areas
This 12-day adventure directly contributes to the conservation of multiple National Parks and UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including Tierra del Fuego National Park, Los Glaciares National Park, and Iguazú National Park. Entrance fees support environmental protection, infrastructure upkeep, and conservation initiatives that preserve Argentina’s biodiversity.

-Wildlife Observation and Environmental Awareness
Every nature activity is led by trained local guides who share ecological knowledge and emphasize responsible tourism practices. From spotting seabirds and marine mammals in Ushuaia’s Beagle Channel to observing tropical wildlife in Iguazú’s rainforest, travelers gain a deeper appreciation for Argentina’s ecosystems and their conservation challenges.

-Environmentally Responsible Accommodations
Partner hotels are small, locally owned establishments committed to sustainable practices such as energy efficiency, recycling, waste reduction, and water conservation. We continuously monitors the sustainability performance of its suppliers to ensure minimal environmental impact.

In collaboration with ReforestArg, we plant ten trees for every traveler to contribute to the cherished landscapes we adore. Currently, we have achieved our goal of planting 150.000 native trees in Patagonia. However, our journey towards regenerative tourism is just beginning.
