The South American continent was the main region of origin for international tourists in Argentina from 2016 to 2020, followed at a wide margin by Europe. However, the COVID-19 pandemic heavily impacted the inbound tourism in the country. In 2020, the number of visitors from South American neighboring countries dropped by more than 70 percent to 1.43 million. International tourism in Argentina from other world regions registered also strong declines that same year. Brazil is the leading origin of non-resident tourists in Argentina.
