It is a long trip from the States to southern Argentina. Most of the flights from the US to Buenos Aires are overnight flights arriving in the morning. Most people choose to overnight at least one day in Buenos Aires just to help with the jet lag and enjoy this beautiful and fun city.
You will then need to take a commercial flight to Rio Grande Airport. Once you arrive in Rio Grande you will be met by our driver in a four wheel drive vehicle for your 1 and a half hour drive to the lodge. You will have a chance to explore the grounds, organize your gear and get ready for the next day of fishing.
