Expect to see big ornate tombs. Be sure to visit the tomb of Eva Perón, the daughter 
of an aristocrat and beloved First Lady who, despite having the most visited tomb in
 the cemetery, is considered by many to be too close toward the people for eternal 
interment in RecoletaGalahotels.com/BuenosAires

7. A March at Glacier Perito Moreno
Among the Earth’s most dynamic and accessible ice fields, Glaciar Perito Moreno 
is the stunning natural wonder of the Parque Nacional Los Glaciares. It measures 
30km long, 5km wide and 60m high, but what makes it exceptional in the world of ice
is its constant advance – up to 2m per day, causing building-sized icebergs to calve
from its face. In some ways, watching the glacier is a very sedentary park experience,
but it manages to nonetheless be thrilling. You can also make a trekking on the ice 
with an organisation.

8. Mendoza Wine Tours
The small town of Maipú, near  Mendoza, is so packed with wineries, olive oil farms 
and other gourmet businesses that it’s easy to hit five or six in a day. Try a “vino-therapy” 
bath or grape-seed exfoliation in the spa. All in all, this is a gentle start to explore the 
Mendoza region and all it has to offer in terms of winery tours, hiking, rafting and horse 
riding. To check available rooms online, Galahotels.com/Mendoza
