Patagonia's mystical allure
Adventurous globetrotters may be tempted book an Aerolineas Argentinas flight to South America to explore Patagonia after one writer claimed the location still has an unusual allure. Travel news editor for the Daily Telegraph Charles Stammer-Smith noted that a variety of "dreamers, wanderers, adventurers and writers" have been attracted to the region. One of the most famous of these was Bruce Chatwin, whose book In Patagonia gained him a Hawthornden Prize and EM Forster Award.
However, according to Mr Stammer-Smith, the location's growing popularity among tourists has not diminished its "mystical appeal". Those who book flights to Buenos Aires with the intention of travelling south to Patagonia may want to make their way to El Calafate. From here they can visit the Perito Moreno Glacier in the Los Glaciares National Park, which is three miles wide and covers 97 square miles.
