Tours to South America

The natural landscape of South America is simply breathtaking. Walk through the lush Amazon rainforest in Brazil, trek snow-capped volcanoes in Chile, and go in search of turquoise lakes in Patagonia. Switch off with a visit to the palm-fringed white sand beaches of Colombia’s Tayrona National Park, or escape civilisation as you venture into Bolivia’s remote white desert to find the ethereal Uyuni salt flats. 

South America is teeming with rare and exotic wildlife. Discover wild horses living high in the Ecuador Andes, come face-to-face with colourful Caica Parrot in Guyana, spot Andean Condor soaring above Colca Canyon in Peru or head to the Brazil’s Pantanal Wildlife Reserve to see toucan, armadillo, and yacare caiman (alligator). For the ultimate wildlife adventure, visit the Galapagos Islands to see giant tortoise, large iguana, and an abundance of exotic bird species. 

If you like walking, you’ll love our South America trekking trips. Follow the iconic Inca Trail to the ‘lost’ city of Machu Picchu in Peru, or trek into Patagonia’s Torres Del Paine National Park to uncover vast glaciers and the jagged mountain peaks of Fitz Roy Massif. 

Our tours to South America will also take you on a cultural voyage of discovery. Explore colourful mountains and lunar landscapes, savour local wines and traditional empanadas in Argentina, or soak up the party atmosphere in Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro. Explore the Inca Empire city of Cusco in Peru, or uncover brightly-coloured colonial buildings and eclectic street art in Colombia.
