📣 Traveler notes

Argentina is a large South American country with diverse landscapes, ranging from northern jungles to central plains and southern mountains.

  • January 1: New Year's Day
  • March 24: Day of Remembrance for Truth and Justice
  • April 2: Malvinas Day
  • May 25: Day of the First National Government
  • June 17: Anniversary of the death of Martín Miguel de Güemes
  • Argentines are expressive and direct conversationalists who may ask personal questions, which is considered a sign of interest. While cheek kissing is common for greetings in cities, a handshake is acceptable everywhere. Avoid discussing the Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas) or the UK, and approach political discussions cautiously, refraining from comparisons with neighboring countries.
