On 23 November 1995, Diana, Princess of Wales arrived in Argentina to begin a historic, fourday visit to the South American country. While not an official state visit, the trip was undertaken by Diana in her newlydefined role as goodwill ambassador for Britain. The visit, which was the Princess of Wales' first international engagement since her controversial Panorama interview, was seen as an important step in the warming of relations between the UK and Argentina, the countries having fought one another in the Falklands War of 1982 and resumed diplomatic relations in 1990.

The footage featured in this edit covers the full four days of Princess Diana's visit, including her famous meeting with Argentine president Carlos Menem, her visits to a number of charities and hospitals in Buenos Aires, whalewatching in Argentine Patagonia, and attending a charity gala banquet.
