Tout d'abord je tiens a remercier tous les voyageurs pour les bons tuyaux en ce qui concerne la patagonie, et merci a tous ceux qui y sont revenus avec leur merveilleux récit et expérience.
En effet je pars avec 4 amis en février 2009 pour un peu plus d'un mois, pour découvrir la patagonie, BA, Iguazu et enfin Cordoba que je ne connais pas du tout, donc si quelques voyageurs qui connaissent bien cette ville, peuvent me renseigner sur Cordoba, me dire ce qui l'on peut faire et voir, ainsi que des bons plans pour hauberge de jeunesse sympat, de bons petit restaux pas trop cher, le meilleur moyen d'y arriver à partir de Iguazu ou BA (avion, bus), je les remercie pleinement d'avance.
La province de Cordoba est en effet malheureusement a mon opinion délaissée par le tourisme international. La ville comme la sierra offre pourtant de nombreux attraits historiques, culturels, sportifs, ou meme de paysages variés.
J'avais écrit il y a quelques temps (il faudrait que je les remette à jour) des articles la dessus, que ca soit sur la ville de cordoba comme sur les estancias jesuites.
Je copie-colle ci-dessous ma réponse toute fraiche à Pelicanbrun. J'espère qu'elle te sera utile !
J'habite à Cordoba depuis un an et ai pas mal parcouru la Province. Je te conseille dès ton arrivée dans la capitale d'acheter le guide Caminos de Cordoba, pas très pratique question adresses mais vraiment très exhaustif sur les lieux à visiter. Tu le trouveras dans les plus grandes librairies sans difficulté (Ateneo vers le 150 General Paz par ex.).
Quelques coins que je te conseille vivement :
Ischilin, petit village dans le Nord de la Province (près de Dean Funes), entièrement retapé par le petit fils du peintre Fernando Fader, né à Bordeaux. Le petit fils en question a restauré entièrement le village et tient une posada, pleine de charme et pas chère.
De là tu peux aller à Ongamira, Los Terrones (jolie rando), puis passer coté Capilla del Monte (ascension de l'Uritorco) et redescendre sur Carlos Paz par La Cumbre (parapente). Attention le coin a néanmoins souffert d'un gigantesque incendie il y a 15jours, qui a ravagé la Sierra Chica sur 25km de longueur :-((((( Le cadre de certains sites est dévasté (Capilla de Candonga), et encore ils ont eu du pot que les monuments historiques n'aient pas cramé.
Si tu passes par La Cumbre, ne manque pas de rendre visite à la cuisto francaise du resto Pajaro Goloso (en lui passant le bonjour de la part des francais de Libertad, elle comprendra ;-) ). Son Curry de poulet est exceptionnel !
Pour finir avec le Nord de Cordoba, une journée à Cerro Colorado (à l'est d'Ischilin, de l'autre coté de Dean Funes) vaut le coup. Tu peux y voir une concentration de peintures rupestres impressionnante (une des plus importantes d'Amérique du Sud parait-il) dans un cadre vraiment sympa. La maison d'Atahualpa Yupanqui. Le village de Tulumba aussi, très mignon, un peu peu au sud.
Si vous aimez la rando, il y a l'ascension de l'Uritorco bien sur (point culminant des Sierras Chicas). Celle du Cerro de La Cruz dans le massif des Gigantes, près de Tandil et Carlos Paz (je te conseille alors une nuit dans les très belles cabanes de la Réserve Cerro Blanco. (http://www.estanciacerroblanco.com.ar/home.htm). Ou carrément le Champaqui, point culminant des Altas Cumbres et de la Province, accessible en voiture presque jusqu'au sommet.
Coté villages sympas et surprenants : San Marcos Sierra (ancienne capitale hippie où tu trouves pas mal de produits originaux style café de figue, confitures, miel, et de l'artisanat...), pas loin de Capilla del Monte. Hébergement avec accueil chaleureux à La Sonada (http://www.estancialasoniada.com.ar/) où le monsieur dont je ne me rappelle plus le nom :-/ est excellent guide pour les paseos a caballo ou en sulky. Il en connait un rayon sur les plantes, l'histoire du coin... Sa femme fait des empanadas exceptionnelles !!! (et lui le traditionnel asado).
Villa General Belgrano et La Cumbrecita, qui misent tout sur le cachet bavarois, ne m'ont pas convaincu. Un peu trop touristiques disons... Mais pas mal question gastronomie germanique comme locale (les fameux fruits au sirop...). La Cumbrecita c'est cool pour la rando uniquement.
Plus loin dans la Province et plus inaccessible, mais vraiment dépaysant question paysage à cause des palmiers Caranday : la Sierra de Pocho.
Bon ça commence à faire encyclopédie, alors pour résumer je te conseillerais la boucle suivante si vous disposez d'une voiture :
Cordoba Capital - Jesus Maria (estancias jesuiticas) - Tulumba et Cerro Colorado - Ischilin - Ongamira - Los Terrones - Capilla del Monte (Uritorco) - San Marcos Sierra - La Cumbre (parapente Cuchi Corral) - Los Gigantes via la Pampa de Olaen (Capilla Santa Barbara) puis Estancia de la Candelaria - Sierra de Pocho (via Salsacate puis Tuneles del Chancani) - redescente sur Villa Dolores puis Merlo (Province de San Luis, limite avec Cordoba, mais la route du Mirador de los Condores vaut vraiment le détour ; pour la nuit super posada pas chère en basse saison : http://www.posada-villademerlo.com.ar/) - Nono (musée Rocsen à ne pas manquer) - traversée des Altas Cumbres et Parc National Condorito (lieu dit La Pampilla) - Alta Gracia (estancia et musée Maison du Che) - Cordoba
Cualquier cosa n'hésite pas à demander ! Et si tu veux voir ces sites en images, tu peux aller sur nos albums commentés :
Un grand merci pour toutes ces adresses, je vais essayé d'en voir le plus possible, je serai a cordoba une semaine a la fin février(mais j'ai l'impression qu'il me faut beaucoup plus pour voir tout ce que tu me dis), j'ai de la famille aussi labas, mais comme je pars avec 4 autres personnes, j'avais besoin d'avoir de bonnes adresses, et voilà, je les ai grace a toi, je ne manquerai pas de passer le bonjour de ta part, et en plus j'adore le poulet au curry. Mais d'y moi se déplacer en bus, cela ne pose pas trop de problème, pas trop galère ?
Un conseil va a Minha claveira, une ville a 2H00 de voiture, la ville n'a rien de fantastique mais les paysages de la sierra pour s'y rendre sont magnifiques, a voir a tout prix.
Le plus grand voyageur est celui qui a su faire une fois le tour de lui-même
En bus la plupart des plus beaux sites de la Province sont inaccessibles. Il y a néanmoins beaucoup de colectivos qui partent du terminal de minibuses et desservent les principales villes (Mina Clavero, La Cumbre, Tandil, Capilla del Monte, Alta Gracia...). Perso je conseillerais vraiment la location d'une voiture au moins deux ou trois jours. Sinon c'est galère (surtout les week ends et saison haute, les transports sont vite saturés, complets, il faut acheter à l'avance ses billets...).
Pour rebondir sur le message suivant, je n'avais pas parlé de Mina Clavero dans mon message car je lui trouve moins de charme que d'autres endroits plus sauvages de la Sierra. Cependant si vous ne louez pas de voiture c'est une destination idéale, puisque le bus traverse toutes les altas cumbres (route spectaculaire à faire de jour) pour atteindre Mina Clavero. De là vous pouvez prendre un taxi et vous rendre au musée Rocsen. Ou louer des VTT. Mais bon là encore si vous voulez faire escale au Parc National Condorito qui est sur le chemin, sans véhicule c'est plus compliqué (à moins de le faire sur deux jours avec la tente).
Bons préparatifs !

Hi everyone,
We’re planning 40 days in Uruguay and Argentina in February and March, trying to avoid as much rain as possible.
We’re thinking of starting in Buenos Aires, then heading to Bariloche, and from there flying to Córdoba, Mendoza, or Salta. Maybe by bus or renting a car to explore each region.
Do you have any suggestions or tips for us? We love picturesque, historic cities and landscapes. As seasoned travelers, we’re used to planning our trips ourselves.
Thanks in advance!
Hello,
my wife and I will be in Cusco for a week in March 2027.
I’d like to organize the visit to the site on our own, combining the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu.
We’d leave Cusco on Day 1 to arrive at the site in the morning, then stay in Aguas Calientes or Ollantaytambo, and on Day 2 return to Cusco while visiting the Sacred Valley.
Is this doable?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Cédric.
Hello,
We’re spending 3 weeks in Rio between February 20 and March 15, 2027, to visit our son and daughter-in-law. We’re thinking of one or two "escapes" from Rio—3-day trips to get away from the city (so not too far, max 3–4 hours by car or bus). We’re all ears for suggestions! We love beautiful nature and authentic experiences, not so much the touristy spots... even though those spots are often in beautiful places, we’d rather avoid them.
Thanks for your insights!

Hello,
we’re arriving in Fortaleza on February 14, 2027, and planning to rent a car to drive to João Pessoa in two stages. We’ll leave from there on the 20th or 21st to head to Rio. Our questions:
- Which stop between Fortaleza and João Pessoa would be the most enjoyable?
- How long does it take to drive from Fortaleza to João Pessoa?
- Are there any easy hikes (no guide needed) around João Pessoa?
Thanks for all your replies—I’m hoping for lots!

Hi there,
I’m planning a trip with my partner (no kids this time—thanks, Grandma!) for two weeks to celebrate her 40th birthday. I’ve been thinking about Chile. We’re looking at leaving around September 18, 2027, starting in the south and returning in early April.
Here’s what I had in mind:
8 nights in a van in the Lake District and the start of the Carretera Austral (up to the Chaitén area). We’re set to arrive in Puerto Montt around 2:00 PM. We don’t want to go too far south since we’re planning to explore the heart of Patagonia (Chile and Argentina) with the kids when they’re older. The idea is to spend 3 nights discovering the lakes (up to Cochamó) and 3 nights in Pumalín Park. I’ve also added two transition nights.
7 nights in the Atacama to experience another side of Chile (San Pedro), taking a domestic flight from Puerto Montt to Calama in the early afternoon. We’ll depart for France in the early evening from Santiago.
IMPORTANT NOTICE for those planning to take a bus to another city, state, or destination from Salvador!
Starting January 20, 2026, the intercity bus station Rodoviária is changing its address!
The Rodoviária is leaving the Iguatemi area and will now be located in ÁGUAS CLARAS (about twenty kilometers from downtown Salvador).
A brand-new station (the most modern in Brazil) has just been set up there, accessible by car/taxi/Uber/metro.
Allow for much more transfer time (especially during rush hours), so leave early if you're heading to Chapada Diamantina or other Brazilian cities by bus.
Remember, there are also private transfers (even French-speaking ones) that can take you directly from your hotel in Salvador to your hotel in Chapada. Sure, it’ll be more expensive, but you’ll save on transfer time and comfort.
Tropical greetings from Salvador,

Hello,
We’re thinking of spending 1 month in Chile, maybe doing a loop?
From 12/23 to 01/22.
What are the must-see sights, given we’re more interested in the country’s cultural side than the beaches?
Thanks
Hi everyone,
We're planning a trip to southern Chile in November. Here's our tentative itinerary:
Day 1: Arrival in Santiago, then a flight the next day to Balmaceda where we'll pick up a rental car to reach Coyhaique.
Day 3: Walk in the Coyhaique National Reserve, then continue to Puerto Chacabuco. Return to Coyhaique for the second night.
Day 4: Drive to Villa Cerro Castillo for a hike in the national park. Continue to Puerto Tranquilo and stay there for 3 nights.
Day 5: Boat tour on Laguna San Rafael.
Day 6: Day trip to Monte San Valentin Glacier.
Day 7: Excursion to the Marble Chapels, then drive to Puerto Guadal. We'll stay there for 3 nights.
Day 8: Walk along Lago Carrera and return to Puerto Guadal.
Day 9: Rio Baker Valley and, if possible, a glacier excursion.
Day 10: Drive to Cochrane and hike in Tamango National Reserve. We'll stay 2 nights in Cochrane.
Day 11: Walk in the Chacabuco Valley.
Day 12: Drive to Caleta Tortel. We'll stay there for 2 nights.
Day 13: Cruise in the Rio Baker delta.
Day 14: Return to Cochrane.
Day 15: Return to Balmaceda in two stages.
Day 16: Continue the return journey.
Day 17: Return the rental car and head back to Santiago.
After this, we're also planning to explore northern Santiago. I'll post about that part once I have a clearer idea of the route.
What do you think of this itinerary? Is it doable in 17 days?
Thanks in advance for your tips and recommendations.

Hi everyone! So happy to be back on this forum—it’s packed with such useful info! 🙂 My husband and I are planning a 2.5-week self-drive trip to Colombia at the end of the year, including some domestic flights. My first question is: is it possible, easy, and safe to do a road trip in Colombia?
Below is our draft itinerary (with questions at each stop):
29/11: France → Colombia. Overnight in Bogotá.
30/11: Exploring Bogotá: La Candelaria and Montserrate.
01/12: Gold Museum (closed on Mondays). Drive to Zipaquirá (1.5 hrs) to visit the Salt Cathedral. Then drive to Villa de Leyva (3 hrs). Explore the town. Overnight in Villa de Leyva.
02/12: Return to Bogotá via Laguna de Guatavita (5 hrs). Is it worth the detour? Overnight in Bogotá.
03/12: Flight to Pereira. Drive to Salento. Overnight in Salento.
04/12: Cocora Valley (hike among the wax palms) followed by a drive around the area. Are there any waterfalls or other sights nearby?
05/12: Visit a coffee finca—any recommendations? Then explore the surroundings: Filandia, Manizales, waterfalls? Hot springs? Which ones?
06/12: Flight to Medellín.
07/12: Exploring Medellín: Centro, Plaza Botero, Comuna 13. How do you visit Comuna 13? Is it easy to get around Medellín? Metro? Buses?
08/12: Drive to Guatapé (2 hrs). Visit the town, stroll around the lake, then El Peñol. Overnight in Guatapé.
09/12: Return to Medellín.
10/12: Flight to Santa Marta. Drive to a hotel near Tayrona Park.
11/12: Tayrona—El Zaino entrance.
12/12: Tayrona—Palangana entrance, then Bahia Concha and Santa Marta. What do you think?
13/12: Drive to Minca (45 mins). Can we reach the village by car? Pozo Azul and Marinka waterfalls. Overnight in Minca (or back in Tayrona?).
14/12: Drive to Puerto Nao (5 hrs). Stop in Ciénaga on the way + boat tour in Nueva Venecia and/or Buena Vista? Not enough time? Overnight in Puerto Nao.
15/12: Exploring Cartagena: Centro, Getsemaní, the walls + La Boquilla if we have time.
16/12: La Boquilla (is it really worth it?) if we didn’t have time yesterday, then back to the beach.
17/12: Return to France.
So, what do you think? Is this doable, or should we tweak it? Thanks in advance for your invaluable feedback and tips! 🙂
Hi there, I’ll be in Brazil from December 10th to the end of February.
I’ve sketched out a rough itinerary but I’m not sure how to arrange it—considering the climate, year-end holidays, and Carnival.
Basically, I’m thinking of the Amazon, the Northeast coast with Lençóis Maranhenses National Park (but skipping Chapada Diamantina),
Ouro Preto, Paraty, and Ilha Grande—but no Rio visit.
Is this doable in 3 months?
Which direction should I take for this itinerary?
Thanks in advance!
Hi everyone, does anyone know the agency Ventura Travel Agency (not ventura travel)? After lots of research and quotes, it’s the only one offering Uyuni at a reasonable price while meeting all the criteria: transfer to the border, private-room accommodation, and a very fair rate. Other agencies or guides either offer shared rooms, no border transfer, or prices that are way too high. But I’d love to hear some reviews about this agency. Thanks in advance!
Hi everyone,
We're planning a trip to Chile to visit the Atacama Desert and then head toward Putre, Lauca, Salar de Surire, etc.
Which would be the better time to go, April or November?
Is an SUV enough?
Looking forward to your tips!
Hi everyone, French travelers in Chile—what credit cards do you use for your various car rentals in the country? I’m traveling in September and was planning to switch my regular debit card (a VISA PREMIER in deferred debit mode) for the deposit guarantee.
My rentals are with Figal in Punta Arenas, Econautos in Arica, and Chilean Rent a Car in Temuco, and all of them want the deposit on a credit card. For me, deferred debit *should* work, but I’ve read comments saying the opposite.
How’s it actually working on the ground with these rental companies right now? Will a deferred debit card work, or not at all?
In France, banks don’t issue credit cards, right—or am I mistaken?
Hi everyone, is it still possible to travel in Ecuador outside the Amazon region? If so, do you have a reliable agency to recommend? All your recent experiences from the past few months would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much
Hi,
We’re heading to Buenos Aires for 3 days in November and would like to do a guided tour of a few neighborhoods. There are "free" tours, but none in French. Does anyone have a guide to recommend so we can really get to know the city beyond just the architecture?
Thanks
Hi there,
I’m desperately looking for info on the schedules and routes of (shared) boats to visit the islands of Lake Titicaca.
From what I’ve found, there’s a *combi* (bus) that leaves from Puno to go to Llachon. Where do you catch it? What are the schedules and frequency? Does it take about 1 hour?
Then in Llachon, you can take a boat to Amantani (45 min). Same question—where do you check for frequency and schedule?
After that, from Amantani, boats go to Taquile and then Uros. Do you have enough time to visit the islands between two boats? Frequency and schedule?
The goal is to do this tour independently (no agency) over 2 days. Thanks for any tips you might have!
I just got back from a trip to Bolivia and wow—what a wake-up call. It’s not the easiest country, but it’s absolutely stunning.
I started with Isla del Sol, perfect for easing into the altitude at a relaxed pace. Try to stay in the northern part of the island—it’s quieter and the views are insane. And the trout there? Unreal. Quick tip: bring cash in small bills; they almost never have change, and cards are rarely accepted.
Next up, La Paz. The city’s pretty wild, built in every direction. I did a few hikes in the area, including the famous Charquini Lagoon (the blue lake) at over 5,000 m—let’s just say I struggled 😅 but it was so beautiful it was totally worth it.
After that, I headed to Sajama. It’s cool, especially for the hot springs, and I stayed in Tomarapi. But honestly, if you’re short on time, you can skip it without too many regrets.
The highlight of the trip: the Salar. I did it starting from Tupiza, and I *highly* recommend going Tupiza → Uyuni. Way less crowded at the start and the landscapes are super varied. For the tour, I used SplitYourGuide to find a group, and it worked out great. Super handy for splitting costs and meeting people.
I wrapped up in Sucre—this city is gorgeous, all white, with such a chill vibe. And the salteñas + ice cream? Next level 😋
Bottom line: Bolivia’s a bit rough around the edges, sometimes exhausting (shoutout to the altitude), but it’s 1000% worth it.
If you’ve got questions or need tips, I’m happy to help!

I was planning to go to Réunion and stay in half-board accommodation with non-professionals, but it seems that’s not really the custom there—or maybe my budget isn’t big enough.
So, since I’ve already traveled around Ecuador and Peru, I’m now looking at Argentina, especially for its mountains (like the ones in Réunion that tempted me, even though—frustratingly—I could only admire them from below).
I plan to get around by bus and don’t know in advance where I’ll sleep, so I won’t book ahead. If I like a place, I might stay for several days.
I know that in Chile, it’s easy to find half-board accommodation, but what about in Argentina?
I’d like to stay with locals in half-board without it being a professional setup. I’m not sure if this is common practice there. It’s up to me to find someone willing to host me.
What do you think?
What would be a fair price (keeping in mind that 40 to 50 € is the max I can spend on accommodation, breakfast, and dinner)?
Hi everyone,
We’re heading to Patagonia for three weeks in November, starting from Coyhaique in Chile.
We won’t have a car, and I’m struggling to find information about transportation options for a few parts of the itinerary we’d like to do:
1) From Perito Moreno (the town, near Los Antiguos), we’d like to travel down Ruta 40 to visit Perito Moreno National Park and then cross into Chile via the Paso Roballos (at the latitude of Bajo Caracoles) to reach the road to Cochrane. Without a car, it seems we’ll need to use private agencies to get to the national park—do you have any recommendations or suggestions? Also, does anyone know if it’s possible to cross into Chile via Paso Roballos (from Bajo Caracoles) without a rental car? That is, without having to go all the way down to El Chaltén or back up toward Perito Moreno/Los Antiguos, etc.?
2) The second stretch that seems a bit tricky (though still easier, in theory) is from Caleta Tortel to Villa O’Higgins on the Chilean side. Do we have to go back through Cochrane, or are there ways to get directly from Tortel to Villa O’Higgins?
3) Finally, we’d like to hike into Argentina (El Chaltén) from O’Higgins. Any recommendations for this? Do we need to go through an agency? What’s the estimated duration of the trek?
As you’ve probably gathered, we want to visit some off-the-beaten-path spots but don’t have a car, so we’re looking for the best possible compromises.
Thanks so much in advance for all your suggestions!

Hi,
we’re planning a round trip from San Pedro de Atacama, Chile, to Salta, Argentina, in two months. On the way there, we’ll take the northern route via Susques, Route 27, then 52. But for the return, we were thinking of taking the southern route via San Antonio de los Cobres, Route 51, then 23. Is it similar to the northern route in terms of road surface? How busy is it, and are there gas stations? Basically, should we be worried about doing it in an SUV that’s supposedly 4x4 but has regular road tires and no second spare wheel, obviously...
I’ve seen that we can stop over in San Antonio de los Cobres.
Thanks for your feedback.

Hi,
we’ll be in Calama at the end of March 2026, and I’m looking for a reliable car rental there for a 7-day road trip to Salta, Argentina. But I’m struggling with the car rental agencies in Calama because the reviews can be scary. I saw Gyg, which has great ratings, but I’m a bit wary (5/5 from 59 reviews—either the guy’s amazing or it’s fake...), but I can’t find any recent reviews on VF in general.
For Punta Arenas, I booked with Dachelet and didn’t have any issues with email exchanges.
Thanks in advance.
Raf.
I’m planning the trip of my dreams for next November—Chile!
I’d love to get your thoughts on my potential itinerary. I know it’s a big investment in terms of both time and money, so every bit of feedback, suggestion, or info helps immensely. Thank you in advance!!
1-Flight to Santiago
2-Explore Santiago
3-Explore Santiago
4-Bus from STG to Valpo (2h) + visit Valparaíso + night in Viña
5-Visit Valparaíso + bus back to STG (2h)
6-Flight to Calama + bus to San Pedro + explore and acclimate in San Pedro + car rental in the afternoon (+Chaxa?)
7-(Very early) Valle del Arcoíris + Laguna Cejar + Valle de la Luna
Good evening,
We’d love to go in November to enjoy some beautiful beaches for about two weeks, preferably around Bahia, as November/December seems like a great time.
We’ve already traveled to Brazil several times and know the south of Rio as well as the region between São Luís and Fortaleza, and Chapada Diamantina...
What advice would you give us: the south with Itaparica, Morro de São Paulo, Boipeba, Barra Grande—or all four? Or maybe the north?
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi,
During an upcoming trip to Peru, we’ll have one day to explore around Arequipa (excluding Colca Canyon) with a car and driver.
We’ve got a few options:
- Toro Muerto petroglyphs and dinosaur footprints at Querulpa
- Ruta del Sillar and Quebrada de Culebrillas
We’re a group of 6 friends with an average age of 70, all mobile, and we’re planning a trip to Peru in September/October 2026. Below is an idea of what we’re looking for: a French-speaking guide, accommodation in 3-star hotels or homestays with comfort.
Duration: 16 to 20 days on-site.
Visit the main sites with immersion in the culture and way of life.
Which francophone agency in Peru would you recommend? Thanks
Hi there!
I’m putting together my itinerary for Brazil, looking for beautiful natural spots with wildlife, flora, and great hikes...
I’ve come across the Cananeia / Super Agui / Ilha do Mel region and the PETAR / Intervales / Alto Ribeira area.
Has anyone here been to these places? If so, do you have any recommendations for accommodations and activities?
Thanks in advance!
Best,
Olivier 🌍
