Endless plains and huge farms in the Pampa, in the center of the country, and breathtaking peaks in the Andes, make for a truly unique and diverse scenery. Argentina is famous for its high-quality red meat, so don’t miss out on an authentic asado or a good steak! The sunny province of Mendoza is well-known for its Malbec wine, with many great winerys and beautiful vineyards to visit
