Argentina - Planning Family trip to Argentina

We've been talking about this for years and finally I think we will do it! I need to plan a trip for next winter break, starting right after Christmas for 10-12 days.

Should I use a tour company to plan an itinerary and ground transportation? Do you recommend any specific company? Or is this easy enough to do myself? We will likely include 3 destinations, BA, Iguazu Falls and one yet to be determined. BUT I'm still at the beginning and need to do alot more research.

Our group will include 5-8 people and a couple of us have fairly good Spanish. There are no small children - all adults except for one 13yo.

Using a full service travel professional is a great thing... but its fair to expect to pay that expert for his/her services. You can certainly book all this on your own... it seems like your trip will be fairly straight forward.

If you want the contact of a local travel agent that is reliable, please email or PM me - I have someone you should talk to. I am not affiliated to this TA, I just use him for most of my work and personal travel.

Thanks for the reply. A few years ago, we went to Panama and I found it was actually cheaper for the agent to book our flights to the San Blas islands, airport transfers and tours than it would have been for me to arrange everything separately.

OTOH, even though I'm early in the process, I'm already getting a sense on how to organize the trip.

I'll PM you in regards to your agent.

Thanks!
