Tenerife Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia
Get out and explore Tenerife, Spain, a volcanic island boasting year-round sunshine and picturesque beaches. Where is Tenerife? It’s a coastal oasis, located on the largest Canary Island, just off the coast of North Africa.
Soak up the sun at Las Americas Beach, one of the most popular spots along the shore, where you’ll find watersports ranging from parasailing to surfing. For another sought-after area, drive 10 minutes north of Las Americas to Del Duque Beach, a chic stretch with clear waters and a relaxing vibe. Prefer a beach with a boardwalk? Don’t miss the pristine shores of Los Cristianos. To experience unique scenery, venture north or west and relish the black-sand beaches at Jardin or Los Gigantes Beach.
If you’re looking to see more than just the sea and sand, mosey into one of the many captivating villages. Santa Cruz de Tenerife, for example, is a must-visit part of town, where you’ll find heavy Spanish influences among numerous restaurants and a laid-back ambience. Check out the architectural wonder, the Auditorio de Tenerife “Adan Martin,” which has become symbolic of the archipelago. Next, marvel at the ancient dragon trees—said to be more 1,000 years old—in Icod de los Vinos, and then hike the trails in the mountain village of Masca.
Whether your idea of a vacation is basking in the sand of Spanish shores or getting to know the local history, you’ll find it all on your next getaway in Tenerife. For more of an inside scoop on this picturesque destination, check out our Tenerife travel guide and get ready to pack your bags.

Travel Guide to Argentina
Argentina is one of the jewels in the Latin American crown. A vast country stretching 3,500 kilometres from the Bolivian border in the north to Ushuaia and the gateway to Antarctica in the south, it is a place that offers some of the most impressive natural wonders anywhere on earth. It has a world-class tourist infrastructure, with arguably the best cuisine on the continent, and it is safe. But its not just that that makes a trip to Argentina feel so special. The country simply has a redoubtable spirit unlike any other in the region, and nowhere is that more evident than in its lively capital, Buenos Aires.
If Argentina is one of the jewels in the Latin American crown, so the cosmopolitan Buenos Aires is one of the standout cities of the continent. Many gateway cities are just that, and you’re best off getting in and getting out, but not the Argentine capital; this is a destination in its own right that ideally requires at least 3 days to truly explore. A place where the elegance of old Europe crashes against the colourful coast of Latin America, Buenos Aires is a beautiful city, with elegant and impressive architecture, relaxing parks and some great sites. Must see locations include the colourful Bocca district, famous for its brightly painted homes, San Telmo, renowned for its antique market and strange curiosity shops, Palermo, home to some of the city’s most stylish restaurants, hotel and bars, and the smart district of Recoleta, most well-known for its famous cemetery, the final resting place of among others Argentina’s most famous daughter, Eva Peron.
From here heading north the first place you’ll be tempted to visit is one of the country’s many natural wonders… the famous Iguazu Falls.
From here, working our way anti clockwise around the country you’ll come to Corrientes and the Iberia wetlands. Although not commonly visited by international travellers, we at Wild Frontiers love this place and run many trips to the atmospheric estancias where we have fun playing at being gauchos.
From here you come to Cordoba, the country’s second largest city. This is a region known for the pretty Andean foothills into which you can ride or walk.
Next up is the famous wine region of Mendoza. Anyone interested in gastronomy trips should spend at least 3 days here, where, staying at one of the locally-run boutique wineries you can enjoy some world class dining. But Mendoza isn’t only about cuisine… it is also the gateway to hikes up the America’s highest mountain, Aconcagua, and some good horse rides into the low Andes.
Heading north of here is the spectacular coloured mountain desert region of Salta, and the northern routes into Chile and the Atacama Desert, or heading further east you’ll next come to San Martin de los Andes, where you’ll find some wonderful mountain scenery with a few great estancias again offering some great riding, and fishing, experiences this time into the higher Andes.
Now heading south, the next location you’ll come to is one of the countries major highlights, the lake district of Bariloche. Here you can enjoy all manner of activities, from riding and cycling, to kayaking and abseiling, or just relaxing with a nice picnic on one of the regions many lakes.
Heading south on highway 40, passed the fossilised remains of the world’s largest dinosaur, and the famous painted hands at Cueva de las Manos, you come to FitzRoy National Park before hitting one of the most impressive areas on the continent, El Calafate, and the regions wide open steppes and famous glaciers that here crash down into the lakes. There are many such glaciers but perhaps the most famous is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Puerto Moreno glacier.
To the east of the country is Puerto Valdez, from which between October to March the Orca whales can be spotted, and in the very south is Ushuaia, and the gateway to Antarctica. At Wild Frontiers we have relationships with some of the best Antarctic explorer vessels.
Argentina is a huge country and unless you are lucky enough to have a month to travel you are unlikely to see it all in one visit. The important thing is to work out what you’d like to see most, and then let us help you work out the best way to do it.
Although Argentina may not have the level indigenous cultural traditions that Bolivia and Peru enjoy; although it might not have the beaches, colour and sheer razzmatazz that Brazil can boast, Argentina does have a plethora of sites and experiences with which to seduce the visitor. With its dramatic Patagonian steppes, its extraordinary glaciers, its colourful mountains and deserts, its lakes and its coast, Argentina’s landscapes are second to none. Its wildlife is impressive and varied, its cuisine is world class and in its cultured, cosmopolitan capital city, it has one of the most fun metropolises anywhere on the planet.
3 things about Ourense | CaminoWays.com
The city of Ourense, ancient 'Auria' for the Romans, is the starting point of the last section of the Via de la Plata route of the Camino de Santiago. Probably one of the most beautiful last sections of the Camino de Santiago routes.
'There are three things in Ourense, you won't find anywhere else in Spain', a popular saying goes: the Santo Cristo, the Roman Bridge and the Burgas hot water fountain. But there is much more than three things that will captivate you when you visit Galicia's thermal city.
-Thermal Waters
The city owes its name to its past as a gold mine but today, gold gone, Ourense's hot springs and thermal waters remain its most unique attraction, to locals and tourists alike. They can be found all over the city and many can be enjoyed free of charge. The most iconic is the thermal spring fountain of As Burgas (65°C), in the city centre.
There are four thermal areas in a stretch of merely three kilometres, on the right-hand bank of the river: A Chavasqueira public pools of hot mineral and medicinal waters (41ºC), then the thermal spring of O Tinteiro (43ºC) with waters believed to help alleviate skin problems, two kilometres ahead is Burgo do Muíño das Veigas (waters 65ºC to 72ºC) with four public thermal pools and the last one is Outariz (61ºC), with four pools recommended for sufferers of rheumatism and arthritis.
The pools open all year round, with a combination of public open-air baths and private areas.
-City of water and bridges
There are eight bridges over the River Miño, as it crosses the city of Ourense. The most famous one is Ourense's Roman bridge, from the first century, also known as the Old Bridge (Ponte Vella) or the Big Bridge (Ponte Maior). The bridge underwent some renovation work in the 12th and 13th centuries, as well as its final one in the 17th century. Seven of the 11 original bridge arches still remain today and the bridge is a pedestrian-only area since 1989.
-The Santo Cristo
Ourense's cathedral, also known as Saint Martin's Basilica, is home to the Santo Cristo, among other things. The Santo Cristo figure was originally brought from Fisterra to Ourense in the XIV century by Don Vasco Pérez Mariños, who was the city's bishop at the time.
Also in the cathedral, you can admire the 13th century Pórtico del Paraíso and the permanent nativity scene in the chapels of San Cosme and San Damián.
-More to explore
Once you have visited Ourense's three most famous attractions, it is time to discover many other things about Ourense that will make you love the city. Take some time to explore the old town and walk around its charming pedestrian streets and quintessentially Galician granite squares, dotted with fountains, 'cruceiros' (crosses) and statues dedicated to some of Ourense's most famous writers. Stroll along the arches of the main square, home to the city hall and Episcopal Palace, where the main festivities in the city take place. There are many more chapels, churches and monuments to visit in the city, such as the convent of Saint Francis and the archaeology museum, but if you more inclined to relax in a green space or stretch the legs and watch the world go by, head for the Alameda park or the Parque do Posío botanic gardens.
Take a break to taste traditional Galician cooking in one of the many bars and restaurants in the old town, and you shouldn't leave without having a sip of Ourense's best juices.
Ourense's wine might not be as well known abroad as Albariño but the province has four 'Denominación de Orixe' (Origin Designation) wine labels of great quality: Ribeiro, Valdeorras, Ribeira Sacra and Monterrei.
-Festivals in Ourense
A handy tip for walkers will be to avoid Ourense in the Summer as it gets some of the highest temperatures in Europe.
Spring and Autumn are probably the best seasons to enjoy Ourense, and during this time of the year, you will find colourful festivals on your Camino de Santiago from Ourense:
-Ourense's 'magosto' is probably one of the most famous in Galicia. Magosto is a traditional Autumn celebration in Galicia, when friends and groups gather to enjoy roasted chestnuts and welcome to the winter season. Ourense's public Magosto celebration takes place on 11th November, San Martiño's Day, in the main square.
-Os Maios, a pre-Roman festival to welcome the Spring. Held on the third of May.
-International Cinema Festival in November
-A Bela Auria festival in September celebrating Ourense's history and traditions.
-Ourense Festival in June, starting in Corpus Christi.
-Carnival is also a very popular festival in Galicia and Ourense province is particularly famous for its ancient Carnival traditions.
