Córdoba

Córdoba is often overlooked by travellers heading between Buenos Aires, Mendoza and the northwest, yet it offers one of Argentina’s most rewarding combinations of history, culture and countryside.

• Jesuit Estancias – Explore a network of UNESCO-listed ranches, churches and workshops that reveal how the Jesuits shaped the region’s economy, culture and education from the 17th century onwards.
• Córdoba City – Wander through Argentina’s second-largest city, home to colonial architecture, lively cafés, vibrant markets and one of the oldest universities in the Americas.
• The Sierras de Córdoba – Rolling hills, walking trails, hidden swimming spots and panoramic viewpoints make these low mountain ranges ideal for outdoor exploration and scenic drives.
• Traditional Estancia Life – Stay on a working ranch, ride with gauchos, enjoy wood-fired asados and experience a slower pace of life in the Argentine countryside.
• Villa General Belgrano – Founded by German immigrants, this alpine-style town is known for its distinctive architecture, craft breweries and annual Oktoberfest celebrations.
• The Calamuchita Valley – Dotted with lakes, rivers and small villages, this picturesque valley offers opportunities for hiking, kayaking, horse riding and relaxed rural escapes.
