Who we are

01 Argentina Travel Agency by Sichi Tours is a travel company specialising in tourism across Argentina. We put together vacation packages built around what you actually want to see: Iguazú Falls, the Perito Moreno glacier in El Calafate, Ushuaia and the end of the world, Puerto Madryn and its whales, Bariloche and the lake district, the vineyards of Mendoza, Salta and the Northwest, Buenos Aires, Uruguay — and Antarctica.

We are a team of local travel agents with our office in Buenos Aires, and a branch in the United States. We are not a booking platform and we are not a reseller: we design the trip, we book it, and we are the ones you call if something changes while you are travelling.

How we work

What you get by booking with an agency instead of a website

A local team, not a call centre

We are travel agents with an office in Buenos Aires. The person who answers your email is the person who designs your trip and the person you can call while you are travelling.

Your reservation confirmed within 24 hours

You do not need to keep dates on hold or wait a week for an answer. We confirm within 24 hours, so you can plan the rest of your trip without leaving home.

Twenty years arranging the same trips

We have been sending travellers to Argentina since 2005. We know which excursions are worth the early start, which are not, and how much time a connection really takes.

Everything under one roof

Flights within Argentina, hotels, transfers, guided excursions and the small logistics in between — arranged as one trip, with one contact, instead of ten separate bookings.

Pablo Diego Polito Gaddi, Travel Director of 01Argentina Travel Agency, at the office in Buenos Aires
“We answer as people, we confirm within 24 hours, and the person who plans your trip is the person who picks up the phone. If you are ready to see Argentina, write to us — we would love to hear where you want to go.”
