How far is Corientes from Cordoba?
What companies serve this route?
Is there any night bus?
I want to go to Iguazu Falls but I was thinking first to stop for a day or 2 at Corientes so not to be all day in the bus. Maybe there any other city on the way thats worth staying at?

thanx in advance!

I am going to be in Cordoba and would like to stay at an estancia where there is horseback riding available. What is available in the area?

Hi all,

I want to jump on a bus, go to Cordoba, drop into a hostel and enjoy my time. Then, when I feel like it, jump on another bus and go somewhere else. No hassles wanted, but am I just dreaming?

In a more clear form: Are reservations necessary for buses and hostels?

I would appreciate any light you can shed...

Thank you!

Can anyone recommend a good Spanish school in Cordoba? We're looking for individual lessons for 1 week, and hoping to pay about 8 USD an hour or less.
Thanks,

In December, we plan to spend 3 days in Cordoba as we heard it is a colonial city, and enjoy historical areas.
I was hoping to find some nice older hotels with some charm or personality, but online all the hotels I've found look like big modern glass boxes. Are there any nice lodgings in or near Cordoba that are unique? Also - we thought me might find some points of interest in smaller towns outside Cordoba ...are there some day trips or small towns in the vicinity we should visit?

My wife and I will be visiting her dad in Cordoba(La Calera)in Decemeber and we are interested in the different rental options there. We'd prefer to stay in some type of Apartment/Condo for a week, possibly Carlos Paz(but open to other ideas). Anyone have advice?

Thanks,
Brian

I've just arrived in Argentina and will be living in Cordoba for 10 - 12 weeks. I'm looking for something in Nueva Cordoba. Any suggestions on how to start my search? Thanks!

How cold does it get during the winter in Cordoba? Does it rain much during this time? I am thinking about visiting in late August/September. I don't mind traveling to places during the winter seasons, but just want to get an idea on just how cold it gets and what the precipitation levels might be.

I'm looking to volunteer for a few weeks or months in Cordoba, I'm a qualified ESL teacher, have accomodations, and speak the language. but I can't find a position that doesn't cost me a lot. Does anyone have any connections or ideas?

Hi there!
Two friends and their baby are going to Cordoba, Argentina at the end of the month. I remember staying at Yolanda hotel many years ago but we get no answer from them. Do you recommend any clean, safe, budget hotel for them to stay??
Thanks a bunch!

Hey Folks,

I will be traveling to South America next year for about 12 months. I would need flights from Lima/Peru to Cordoba/Argentina in July, from Cordoba to Santiago (or another Chilenian destination, depends on where I get my internship at) in November 2006 and another ticket from this Chilenian destiation to Rio de Janeiro in February 2007. I know that travel agencies don't have fares for 2007 by now.

Would you recommend booking all those inland flights while I'm already in South America? Would you recommend using a multiple-city-ticket or to by one-way-tickets instead? Can you recommend a good but cheap airline that serves the destinations I want to fly to?

Thanks so much for your help!

Best regards,
Michelle

Does anyone know if I can purchase bus tickets between BA and Cordoba from here in the US, or should I wait until I get there? I am worried that by the time I get there I may not be able to get reservations since it is high season. I am traveling in January. Also...is smoking allowed on Argentine buses? I'd have a problem with that since unfortunately I am allergic to it.
Thanks...Linda

I will spent 2 months in Cordoba. How is the city and what to see in Cordoba and the surroundings? And what about bars/nightclubs? Is it a safe City by day and night? Every info is welcome....

Hi y'all,

I was wondering if anybody has had any experience with Spanish lessons in Cordoba. I'm thinking of staying there for a couple of weeks on my way from Santiago de Chile to Buenos Aires. Is it true that the costs per hour/lesson are a lot higher in Argentina than e.g. Peru or Ecuador?

Thanks in advance,

Mark

I'm reposting my question here, and apologize for initially posting it on a more general location.

I'm planning a trip to Argentina and Chile and am seeking advice as to whether a trip to Cordoba may be worthwhile. Also, how long would a bus ride take to Santiago from Cordoba -- and is this advisable?

Why am I considering a bus ride to Santiago? I'm trying to ration my Mercosur Airpass miles.

Also, I've read that U.S. tourists entering Chile by land need not pay the $100 tourist fee charged those entering the country via air. (I plan to fly to Buenos Aires after spending a week in Chile.)

My plan is to fly into Rio or Sao Paulo, head for Iguacu Falls, then to Cordobo. From there, onward to Santiago, then to Buenos Aires and back to Sao Paulo for my return to San Francisco. I've got nearly a month.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Ciao.

I am wanting to take a 3 to 6 month sabbatical. I am interested in the best economical arrangement I can find..it may be the difference between whether I can stay 3 or 6 months! I am attracted to Cordoba but trying to determine a budget and plan. I CANNOT find any apartment rentals! I do need internet access. Will appreciate any and all advice, leads, suggestions and opinions.
Is my plan feasible. I want to fly out of the US early to mid August.
