Product Description
Whether you are planning to visit a city, a region or a country, DK's foolproof 'Eyewitness' approach makes learning about a place a pleasure in itself. All the traditional guidebook subject matter is covered-descriptions of sights, opening times, hotels, restaurants, shopping, entertainment, phrase books etc- but, with the help of specially commissioned illustrations and maps, DK makes essential information easy to access and quick to absorb. No other guides explain the history of a place as clearly in words and pictures. DK Eyewitness Travel Guides-the best guides ever created.

Argentina's vibrant, wonderfully idiosyncratic capital, Buenos Aires, is the third largest city in Latin America, yet it is a resolutely human kind of place. Famous for its tango, football and European-style architecture, it also holds hidden gems, including picturesque cobbled neighborhoods, sophisticated shopping and some of the best and most varied cuisine in the whole continent. Cinemas and art galleries, jazz clubs and theatres, atmospheric cafés and antiques markets abound, while exercising or just lazing around in beautifully landscaped parks filled with subtropical vegetation are part of the dynamic yet laid-back porteño lifestyle

5.0 out of 5 stars Argentina Guidebook, January 17, 2009
By Bill A. Belt (Dallas, Texas) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This Eyewitness Argentina Travel Guide is excellant. This book gives you tons of information about the cocuntry. It is not a guidebook for locating restaurants or hotels, hwover it is an excellant guidebook that gives you a lot of data and interesting locations for the country.The quality of the paper and the writing in the book makes it an excellant buy in my opinion.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for what it is., June 19, 2009
I think this guide will be very useful for determining where you want to go in Argentina, but I don't think it will help much once you get there. The lodging and restaurant section is nearly non-existent and what is there is not for the budget traveller or backpacker and most of the rest of it is just pointing out the tourist sights. However, it is very helpful to have so many color photos. There are at least 3 or 4 pictures PER PAGE!!! I wish it had a bit more info, but the pictures really make it worth the money to me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome book that covers a truly stunning country!, April 16, 2009
GET THIS BOOK if you are even marginally thinking of visiting or moving to Argentina. In fact, if you read this book, you may decide to change your life's plans and move to this incredible country!
Super writing, great pictures, well designed layout of the book, easy to use maps and as informative as anything that I have read in years.
This book scores an A+++.
