We're Going to EL BOLSON! En Route to our FAVORITE TOWN IN PATAGONIA!

Come join us as we head to El Bolson, our favorite town in Patagonia, on an easy day of travel taking a short bus ride from Esquel. We kick things off with a short apartment tour in Esquel. Having stayed in Esquel for 8 nights, the longest stay of our trip in Argentina so far, we really came to enjoy this mid-sized town in Patagonia. Having a lovely cat friend certainly made it harder to leave as we could have easily stayed another week.
After a short taxi ride to the bus station in Esquel we waited to board our bus to El Bolson. The bus from Esquel to El Bolson is just a few hours, which was a welcome change after the marathon overnight bus rides we've been taking in Argentina of late. The journey from Esquel to El Bolson was incredibly scenic as we headed through valleys, mountains and forest along the way including witnessing a gorgeous rainbow. Upon arriving at our rustic Cabin in El Bolson we went out for some delicious Parrilla. We'll have many more episodes from El Bolsón coming soon.

We're Going to EL BOLSÓN! En Route to our FAVORITE TOWN IN PATAGONIA!

Hey guys! We are Samuel and Audrey, a travel vlogging couple from Canada. In this travel channel we share our travel and food vlogs while touring the world.
We had the privilege of traveling around Argentina for nearly 3 months from January- April 2019 on a trip covering a large section of the country.
We kicked things off with several days in Buenos Aires where we were joined by Audrey's parents eating and sightseeing around some of our favourite neighbourhoods in the city. We then flew from Buenos Aires to Cordoba where we spent a couple of weeks in the Sierras of Cordoba visiting both La Cumbrecita and Villa General Belgrano with highlights including hiking and delicious German and Swiss cuisine.
From Cordoba, we then travelled a considerable distance on an overnight bus to Mar Del Plata just in time for a special food festival called Feria Masticar featuring the best of Argentine food and wine. We spent several days enjoying beaches and seafood before heading south to Patagonia to visit the province of Chubut.
While on the Atlantic side of Chubut we visited Puerto Madryn, Peninsula Valdes, Trelew, Gaiman and Dolavon. To summarize our time in this area, we had incredibly close encounters with wildlife including penguins, sea lions and guanacos while also experiencing Welsh culture in Argentina.
Our time in Patagonia continued as we headed from east to west trading more barren landscapes for thick forests, impressive mountains and magnificent lakes. We spent significant time in both Esquel and El Bolson with day trips to visit Trevelin, Parque Nacional Los Alerces, Cholila and Lago Puelo. Highlights included sailing, hiking, riding vintage trains and partaking in the national asado festival.
We finished visiting Patagonia with time spent in Villa La Angostura, San Martin De Los Andes and Bariloche where we enjoyed more stunning scenery and hiking. On our way back to Buenos Aires, we took the Tren Patagonia to Las Grutas before meeting up with Audrey's dad again.
To finish off our trip in Argentina, we spent more time in the capital and later Mendoza where we got to experience wine tourism to its fullest extent. Overall, we had an amazing time travelling around Argentina having only scratched the surface of this vast and diverse country.
Overall our Argentina travel series explores cities, small towns that are off-the-beaten-path, and scenic attractions with a strong emphasis on Argentina cuisine and local culture.
