Reviews of Small Group tours to Argentina
- 3-Days Iguazu Falls Tour of the Argentinian and Brazilian Side
Marcus was an amazing guid, was very knowledgeable and went out of his way to ensure we had a great time. Highly recommend
- Hiking Fitz Roy & Torres del Paine National Park - GROUP TOUR
I travelled with the company in November 2019 and the experience was incredible. I joined one of their group tours and it was amazing. The group departure was in Spanish, English and German which was great for me because in this departure were a lot of German people and a main guide who spoke German perfectly well. In the group were 13 passengers which was the perfect amount of people to share a hiking trip and the group was what made this trip unique. I am also in touch with Andrea and Matt, who became very close friends of mine. All services were absolutely great, the camp, the hotels, the transportation. I can only recommend that we should all do a group trip for once in our lives.
- 8-Day Premium Discovery Ushuaia & El Calafate from Buenos Aires
Dazzling landscapes, we are still stunned by how impressive were the places we could visit. Really amazing, I recommend them to people who like nature. Thanks Signature Tours for everithing.
What our customers ask about Argentina Small Group Tours
What regions in Argentina are best suited for small group travel?
Small group travel thrives in Argentina's diverse landscapes from the glaciers of Patagonia's Los Glaciares National Park to the sun-drenched vineyards of Mendoza and the colorful valleys of Salta and Jujuy provinces.

Hotel Las Dunas in El Calafate provides convenient access to the Perito Moreno Glacier. A TourRadar traveler shared: "Our intimate group size was perfect for navigating the narrow trails of Quebrada de las Conchas and enjoying personal interactions with local communities while staying at the charming Casa Lila in Mendoza."
What type of accommodations can I expect on small group tours in Argentina?
Small group accommodations focus on boutique properties that highlight local character. These include the lakeside Hotel Mirador del Lago in El Calafate the colonial-style Hacienda de Molinos in Salta and exclusive lodges like Rincon del Socorro in the Iberá wetlands. Most properties feature 15-30 rooms ensuring attentive service. A TourRadar traveler noted "Staying at Hotel Las Dunas in El Calafate with our small group felt like being part of a family with personalized recommendations and attention from staff."
How does the pricing compare between small group and large group tours in Argentina?

A boutique Patagonia experience at places like El Chalten Suites Lodge runs around USD 350 per day while larger group tours average USD 250. A TourRadar traveler noted: "The additional cost was worth every penny for the personalized attention and flexibility to adjust our itinerary around Mount Fitz Roy based on weather conditions."
