Welcome to Sporting Destinations

We have been guiding hunters in Argentina since 1987 and have lived here full time since 1985, when we moved here from Michigan. We provide high volume, reasonably priced bird hunting trips in Argentina as well as big game hunts. Our primary bird hunting lodge is in the Northern region known as the “Littoral”. In this region we can provide mixed bag bird hunts for duck,dove, pigeon and perdiz over dogs all out of the same location. Also in the same area you can hunt axis deer, buffalo, brocket deer, capybara, and mountain lion. Our red stag hunts are in La Pampa province.

Each page on this site has specific information that I hope you will find useful and enjoy. There are also video clips and pictures of our hunts. Our niche in the market is high volume without the high price. Our lodging is 3 star with comfortable and clean rooms, each with private bath. We have very high volume dove hunts but pride ourselves more on the ability to give you high volume of mixed bag, something that few outfitters can do. Please take a look at our sections: WINGSHOOTING and BIG GAME for more detailed information.

Bringing firearms into Argentina is a simple procedure. Just print out in triplicate the gun form available at this link: http://www.renar.gov.ar/english/turista/ficha.asp
Fill out 3 copies and you can bring up to 3 guns each. You will be charged 300 PESOS (aprox $100 US) per gun at customs. If you prefer not to travel with firearms or prefer not to submit your fine guns to the wear of a high volume shoot, We rent shotguns at $40/day.

Flights are available from many major airports to Buenos Aires, the capitol of Argentina. It is an eight and a half hour flight from Miami. When You arrive in Buenos Aires you will arrive at the international airport known as Ministro Pistarini Ezeiza, the airport code is EZE. From there you will need to go to the domestic airport known as Aeroparque Jorge Newberry, airport code AEP. It is a 40 minute ride and chauffeured cars are available at the booths in the baggage claim area. One of the fine companies that are dedicated to this service is “Manuel Tienda Leon”. The cost is approximately $35 (US Dollars) per car and each car can transport 2 -3 hunters with their gear. You may also opt to hire our associate.

What our clients say:

John,
Needless to say the hunt was the best of my life!!
I still lie in bed , shut my eyes, and all I see are doves, pigeons, ducks, and geese.
The customer service was the best I have ever experienced. Your operation is 100% second to none.

………... I've been around the block a few times over the years; Africa, New Zealand, Alaska ETC,ETC. John's hunt is probably one of the most enjoyable trips I've been on.
