Kayak periodically sends me some unbelievable travel deals. This week, they highlighted an 8 day trip to Rio, Iguazu and Buenos Aires for $1499. This includes airfare from JFK (other departure cities also available), connections and hotel. This package is just one of the many offered by Latin Destinations. Their web site is very well designed and easy to navigate. Customizing your trip and viewing alternatives is a cinch – just click on Design Your Own Trip.
Born in Argentina, Paula Crerar moved to the United States as a child. She continued to visit Argentinean relatives every year in Buenos Aires, Patagonia, Córdoba and Salta. With the seasons reversed in the Southern Hemisphere, most of her stints in Argentina were spent in Patagonia skiing, and soon her shelf space was filled with ski racing trophies.
She has also lived and traveled extensively in the Caribbean and Latin American countries. Paula is currently a marketing executive in the technology industry and lives in Boston.
