We’ve had a couple of very enjoyable stop-overs in Buenos Aires en-route to both Chile ski resorts and ski areas down near Bariloche Argentina. As to be expected, there’s a stark contrast to the ski resort culture and the small South American town experience, and it was fantastic to see a South American metropolis.

We really enjoyed just strolling around the streets, appreciating the architecture and people watching. Parts of Buenos Aires seem really run down and dirty, but there are equally beautiful parts of the city as well. It’s the diversity that makes it such an interesting city.

The variety of dining options was fantastic, from European style cafes, typical Argentina meat-lovers’ restaurants, and the restaurants at the port.

A highlight for us was partaking in a tango dinner show. It was very touristy and the food was a long way from being special, but the show itself was really entertaining, sexy, fascinating and hilarious all rolled into one!
