Argentina is lovely, and not just Buenos Aires. Good god, the wine. You can have an incredible wine-tasting vacation in Mendoza or Cafayate. If you love the outdoors, there's Tierra del Fuego - which is also the jumping off point for Antarctica. There's more that's purported to be great, too.
At the moment, the key is to bring all your money in American dollars, and never touch a credit card - the official exchange rate is set by the government, and has no relationship to reality. Exchange your money into pesos on the black market, and an already affordable country gets even more so.
- tghw 11y agoI had good luck using Xoom.com to transfer money. The rates were very close to (and occasionally even better than) the blue rate. You just have to find an office to pick it up from. Also, make sure you don't end up with too many extra pesos at the end of your trip. It's almost impossible to change them back to dollars.
