If cushy resort travel is not your idea of a honeymoon, then head south - way south - to the wilds of Patagonia and experience Argentina's expansive coast and mountains.
Find your way to Patagonia via Buenos Aires or Santiago, Chile. Major carriers such as United Airlines or American Airlines have regular flights, but look into LanChile as a possible flight choice.
Step2
Visit Patagonia year-round, as it is relatively mild, unless you are in the higher altitudes between June and August, which is winter in South America.
Step3
Embrace adventure in this rugged land: You can see all kinds of marine wildlife while on the coast of the Peninsula Valdes, then experience an advancing river of ice at the massive Moreno Glacier.
Step4
Tour with trek operators such as Patagonia Travel Adventures and Above The Clouds Trekking, who will escort you on a 15- or 16-day all-inclusive outing (approximately $3000 per person).
Step5
Take time to ski the Andes at world-class resorts such as Las Lenas.
Step6
Squeeze in some time to eat, drink and dance in hopping 24-hour Buenos Aires. The Costanera Norte and Las Canitas areas in Palermo buzz with a wealthy crowd, while the walkable and trendy El Bajo area is more affordable.
Tips & Warnings
Have plenty of time on your trip, as Argentina is a huge place with lots to see.
Seek out famous Argentine beef, a rich tradition of the "ranchero" lifestyle there.
