Peru, Brasil, Argentina & Chile South America Tour Package

South America With Tour Leaders

Triple the sights, sounds, and sizzle on this South American vacation through three of the continent’s most scintillating countries. As you samba through Brazil, tango through Argentina, and cueca through Chile, your toes will meet the liveliest of dance floors, the sandiest of beaches, and the most storied of streets. Guided visits to the vibrant cities of Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, and Santiago are perfectly balanced with quieter excursions to lush rainforests, chic waterfront resorts in Patagonia, and even rural Argentine ranch where you can saddle a horse and be a beret-wearing gaucho for the day. Traditional open-fire barbecues and crispy empanadas will satisfy your cowboy cravings throughout your South American journey while witnessing both sides of thundering Iguassu Falls, cruising Patagonian fjords beneath the soaring peaks of the Andes, and visiting Chile’s renowned wine country will quench your thirst for a scenic adventure. Your South American vacation wouldn’t be complete without sipping a Pisco sour and drinking in the wonder of Machu Picchu. Add Peru to your South American tour to see the ruins of the Lost City and the Sacred Vally and the cultural uprising of “it” cities Lima And Cusco.

EXPERINCES

The Most Deluxe Vessel on the River
You won’t find a riverboat of higher quality. This ship is custom-designed for navigating the Amazon. Built in a classic distinctive style and finished with contemporary comforts, this small ship features generous cabins with panoramic windows.

While some Amazon ships carry 100 passengers or more, the ships we work with prefer smaller groups for a more authentic experience. Its compact size means we can tie up at the bank to easily embark and go on excursions.

The Amazon guides average at least 10 years of experience in the region. What’s more, your Expedition Leaders provide an added level of service and personalized attention giving you a more intimate experience onboard.

Cruise to the Amazon Headwaters
The main destination is the largest protected realm in Peru, the Pacaya Samiria National Reserve. This vast 5-million-acre wetland at the headwaters is replete with wildlife—you won’t find a richer experience of rainforest biodiversity.
