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 | | | |

Excellent guide! Jan 12, 2009
By KEITH HERMAN
"KEITH HERMAN"
As usual, Eyewitness does a terrific job with their latest addition - Argentina! Very informative and detailed, colorful with many photos, maps. All helping you decide where to best spend your time and, if applicable, your very valuable US dollar. What Eyewitness needs though is to come out with a CITY guide for Buenos Aires. There is MORE THAN ENOUGH in the city to spend on an entire book. I would say this was the only lacking feature. Still a great buy and even a great gift for the arm-chair traveler!

 Great for what it is. Jun 19, 2009
By Toby T. Busch
"Tobywankenoby"
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.

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+++.

I love DK travel guides. Jul 05, 2010

DK travel guides are great. They have lots of good tips for visiting countries all over the world. Their format is easy for referancing while you travel. And they are small enough to fit in your day pack as you travel. The photos have helped me label my photos post-trip! I purchase a DK travel guide for every country we visit. Love Dk Travel guides!

Best of the Guides Nov 16, 2009
By Platinum
Very accurate, concise descpitions, with 'right on the money' restaurant picks. A well constructed (glossy) durable guide that is not bulky, fits nicely into a rucksack, and contains an abudance of clear and relevant photo's. We found it very handy as we traveled throughout Argentina.
