Argentina: Your Packing List

Without a doubt, the two main things to consider before packing are: the climate

of your destination regions and what activities you are going to be doing. If you aren't sure what you will need or what you can buy when you get there, try to buy things like hiking shoes because comfort is crucial. Here we will have a look through what you will need for a luxury Patagonia tour .

Like most South American places, this is a large country so you may find yourself travelling to a variety of climates. Iguazu Falls is warm and surrounded by jungle. Far south in Patagonia, you can find yourself walking along a glacier. Deserts can also be found here so this is also a place where bringing layers is a wise idea. Make sure that, whether you're going to the falls or not, waterproof clothing is packed.

Having clothes that wash and dry with a quick turnaround is important, because there are many adventures within the country. If you are planning your trip during winter months (bear in mind some areas in Patagonia are unreachable at this time), you will need something warmer.

You may want to bring something a bit dressier for going out in Buenos Aires, especially if you are planning on being there a few days (which you should). This is a European style city with a sense of fashion to match. Taking in a tango show is a must, and here you will definitely need something other than your hiking gear - maybe even to just get through the door. Actually, some places may even have a dress code so you will need to have something dressy to be allowed inside.

You can get away with less clothing you than you might think because laundry is quite easy as well as cheap to have done for you. That being said, in smaller and less touristy area, you may not be able to get as fast turnaround so be sure to have enough to last the days in those areas until you return someplace more populated.

Always bring a bathing suit, just in case. Thermal springs are quite common in South America so you'll want to be prepared. Similarly, consider a towel that is quick drying for things like this or trekking.

ATMs are readily available in larger towns. This is a better alternative to traveller's checks which often aren't accepted. If you are bringing dollars to exchange, bear in mind that they must be completely whole and without even the slightest tears.

It's always a good idea to have some photocopies of your passport, just in case it gets lost or stolen. Don't forget extra batteries or battery packs for your camera. There may be some areas where these are difficult to replace or recharge. Prescription medicine or even over the counter items that you tend to use a lot, particularly something for diarrhea, is smart to carry with you during Latin America travel.
