Getting around

    Distances are immense in Argentina, and you are likely to spend a considerable portion of your budget on travel. Ground transport (mostly bus) is best for giving a true impression of the scale of the country and for appreciating the landscape. However, you may want to cover some big legs, particularly to and around Patagonia, in which case travelling by domestic flights can often save a day or more. Also, though the inter-city bus network is extensive, services in remote areas can be poor and infrequent; in these places, it is worth considering car rental. Finally, boat trips and ferry crossings are well worth working into your itinerary if possible.
