Travel Tips

• AIRPORT OPTIONS : Buenos Aires has 2 International Airports to choose from (EZE & AEP). EZE is approx 45 minutes & AEP is approx 15 minutes from our hotel in the city. For departures, we will not have the return flight times from Patagonia until 4 months prior to retreat dates when we purchase your tickets.If you want to purchase your international flights for Buenos Aires sooner than 4 months out and want to make sure the flight times jive, you can plan to leave from Buenos Aires (EZE) to your international destination in the late evening/night of closing day or plan to stay overnight in BA and leave the following morning. Please keep in mind you will have to change airports from AEP to EZE to fly out to the US or your home country. This ride is approx 1 hour. We will help coordinate groups together to share taxis once we have everyone’s flight details so you can plan to ride together. You will be responsible for getting your own taxi from the AEP airport after the retreat ends.It is possible to buy your own domestic flights from Bariloche to Buenos Aires if the flight times that we offer do not coordinate with your larger flight. Please note that you will need a private ride from Villa La Angostura to the airport in Bariloche on departure day depending on your flight schedule. Please speak with us if you plan to purchase your own domestic flights.

• AIRPORT TRANSFERS : Depending on which airport you fly into in Buenos Aires (EZE or AEP) you can take a taxi from the terminal right to our first hotel in the city. EZE is about 45 minutes from the hotel and AEP is about 15 minutes. Rates will be based on the taxi meter.Please keep in mind you will have to change airports from AEP to EZE to fly out to the US or your home country. This ride is approx 1 hour. We will help coordinate groups together to share taxis once we have everyone’s flight details so you can plan to ride together. You will be responsible for getting your own taxi from the AEP airport after the retreat ends.

• WEATHER : Seasons in Argentina are opposite from North America, so our Spring is their Fall and our Fall is their Spring. Please plan to dress in layers for all kinds of weather situations. There could be rain and both hotels have swimming pools and the VLA location has a jacuzzi too. The lake will be cold no matter what time of year but if you’re feeling a cold plunge calling…this is your chance!

• WHAT TO PACK : Layers are always recommended to transition from sunny days to cooler evenings. Jeans, light sweaters or jackets should be handy for cooler evenings while day time can be sunny and mild. Comfortable shoes are recommended and heels should be carefully considered because of the uneven cobblestone streets that you will surely encounter. A bathing suit and something to lay on top of in the sand if you plan to hang out by the lake is recommended. Bring a rain jacket and umbrella just in case. We will be hiking in nature so something sturdy for this walk is recommended.

• YOGA PROPS : We will be practicing at a studio in Buenos Aires so mats and props are provided. In Patagonia a yoga mat will be provided for your use. If you like to practice on your own mat and are looking for an amazing travel mat we highly recommend Liforme mats and knee pads. You can use this link to get a 5% discount on your order.

• DIETARY CONCERNS : Argentina is a culture that goes heavy on the meats..that said, in most cases they are willing to offer vegetarian options and at times can accommodate vegan as well. We ask that you be flexible in terms of diet as much as possible. Gluten free and specific food allergies will be easier to consider but anything serious will be difficult to control given the risk of cross-contamination in the kitchens while preparing meals. If you have a serious allergy please bring at least 2 epi-pens with you, carry them with you at all times and let us know where they are located so we may assist you in case of an emergency.

• TRAVEL INSURANCE AND TRIP CANCELLATION COVERAGE : We highly recommend you immediately purchasing travel insurance and Trip Cancellation coverage as soon as you make your deposit towards travel to cover your investment in case anything should go awry with your travel plans.
