The best packing lists for Argentina

Argentina runs from the subtropics to the edge of Antarctica, so the itinerary decides the suitcase. Anyone heading to Patagonia packs against wind: from November to March it blows steadily and hard, and a windproof shell beats a thick one.

Good to know for Argentina

Buenos Aires is hot and humid from December to February and cool and damp from June to August, in flats and restaurants heated less than Europeans expect. Iguazu soaks you whatever the forecast says, and a rain jacket serves better than an umbrella.

Outlets take the angled three-pin plug and sometimes the Europlug, at 220 volts. The currency is the peso, and cash still plays a bigger role here than in neighbouring countries. Tap water is drinkable in Buenos Aires and the larger cities.

Dinner starts late and hikes start early. Between the two, bring one pair of shoes you can still walk into a restaurant with at ten at night.
