Balloon Trip

Post April 1, 2009 - Classified Adventure Tourism, Knowing Buenos Aires

A unique experience, where you will feel as if you where floating in the air, where you will enjoy a complete freedom, letting your mind be at peace. There is no direction, no time, just nature. The distance that you may travel depends entirely on the wind.

At Capilla del Señor, located 80km away from the capital of Buenos Aires, balloon trips are organized. There are several agencies that offer their transfer services from where you are staying to Capilla del Señor and then from here back. You will enjoy a day in a farm, where you will be provided with breakfast, lunch or tea in the afternoon and then with the help of professionals you will make this wonderful travel through the sky. You can choose to do it either during the morning or at sunset.

You will be able to fly if the weather conditions allow to do so, that is why Rochester Hotel recommends going on fresh and sunny days to enjoy to the fullest this adventure and to be able to obtain excellent views of the landscape. Take into account that kids may get afraid at the beginning and that it is not activity for those who are scared of heights. Remember to take a camera with you.

You cannot leave Argentina without having tasted the food for which we are recognized worldwide. That is why Rochester Hotel recommends this excellent grill. Anyway, you have to bear in mind that the place is not so big and tables are close to each other. We suggest arriving early as it is always full.

A different activity for kids and adults

Post March 31, 2009 - Classified History and Culture of Buenos Aires, Knowing Buenos Aires

For those who love or are interested on Art History, the Latin American Art Museum of Buenos Aires, known as MALBA offers a great collection with works of the main contemporary and modern artists.

An activity that is not usually attractive for many people, even less for the little ones, turns out to be one all the contrary. It manages to capture kids and adults interest through games and workshops which combines learning with entertainment.

As well, it offers talks and debates with artists and writers, cinema cycles, guided visits and several exhibitons, among other things.

An ideal place to bear in mind on cloudy or rainy days when you do not know what to do, Rochester Hotel recommends visiting the MALBA as it is a different activity where people participate on the workshops which teach about Latin American Art and Culture in a recreational way.
