Confirm travel documents early
Check passport validity and visa requirements for Argentina and Brazil well before departure; border crossings and flight connections depend on correct paperwork.
Bring waterproof footwear
Boardwalks at Iguazú and viewing platforms at Perito Moreno are wet—grippy, waterproof shoes prevent slips and keep you comfortable on longer walks.
Plan for domestic flight buffers
Flights between Buenos Aires, El Calafate and Puerto Iguazú can be delayed by weather—allow margin in connecting plans.
Hydrate and sun-protect
Patagonian sun can be strong despite cool air; carry sunscreen, a hat and at least 1–2 liters of water on excursions.
Waterproof hiking shoes
Provide traction and keep feet dry on glacier viewpoints and wet Iguazú boardwalks.
Lightweight waterproof jacket
Necessary for drizzle at Iguazú and wind on the Patagonian steppe.
Daypack with hydration
Carries water, layers and camera for full-day excursions.
Insect repellent and quick-dry clothing
