- Fascinating Flora (Antarctic Peninsula)
Although the Antarctic Peninsula is covered in an icy tundra, it is actually the mildest climate in Antarctica. This is why it is the home of the only flowering plants on the entire continent – Antarctic Hair Grass and Antarctic Pearlwort.

Buenos Aires is the birthplace of the sultry dance, and is still the best location to experience an authentic tango performance.
- Rockhopper Penguin Colony (Stanley, Falkland Islands)
The Falkland Islands are home to some of the largest Rockhopper penguin colonies in the world. The penguins have been unaffected by the presence of humans and you can actually stand by and watch them dive into the sea to catch food!
