South America tour ideas

A land of superlatives where you can visit the world’s tallest waterfall, its driest desert and longest river, South America is a kaleidoscopic mix of cultures, landscapes and traditions. Our specialists have explored it all and with their advice, planning a trip is as simple as letting them know your interests.

Our sample tour ideas aim to show you what is possible, but when it comes to your trip, our specialists will tailor-make an itinerary just for you. You could take a culinary tour of Chile and Argentina, combine wildlife watching in the Amazon with a cruise around the Galapagos, or trace the history of tango in Buenos Aires before touring the wineries of Mendoza and riding with the country’s legendary gauchos.
