South America Itineraries

South America is a continent famed for its vibrant culture, fascinating history and diverse ecology. Comprising of 12 countries, and a couple of territories, South America sits within the western hemisphere and is home to both the equator and the ‘end of the world’ at Ushuaia. This continent is a land of staggering contrasts – think high Andean mountains and dense Amazonian jungle, the salt flats of Chile and the icebergs of Patagonia. South America invites intrepid explorers to journey through the varied landscapes and rich heritage of a region that tugs at the heart and welcomes all with open arms.

Those who crave adventure will enjoy the incredible summits of the Andes mountains which form a spine along the west coast of the continent, isolating the Pacific coast with a natural barrier. Gently curving along the boundary of Argentina and Chile before heading north into Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Columbia and terminating at Venezuela, the Andean peaks offer unparalleled trekking opportunities across the world’s longest mountain range.

Journey through the Sacred Valley along the ancient Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in Peru and discover the indescribable prowess of these innovative engineers who built a city amongst the mountaintops that has withstood the test of time. Or take a trip to Patagonia, one of the most sparsely populated places on earth, that spans southern Chile and Argentina. Here you’ll find both the arresting peaks of the Torres del Paine and the glacial crevasses of the southern Patagonian ice fields. This region is known for its insane biodiversity, with endless coast and the driest desert in the world, ancient creeping glaciers and monolithic stoney peaks, providing unique habitats for numerous endemic plant and animal species.

South America is also most famous for the Amazon rainforest. This tropical jungle is the largest on earth and home to 10% of the world's know wildlife species. Whether exploring on foot or travelling the waterways that bisect this natural wonder, no visit to South America is complete without seeing it for yourself. Stay in a hammock camp in Guyana and fall asleep to the sounds of the jungle or join a multi-day trek into the depths of the cloud forest for a fully immersive Amazonian experience.

We love the feel of South America. The cities are bursting with flavour and old meets new in a juxtaposition that creates harmony and warmth. You’ll find delicious food and fantastic music in the capital cities of Lima and Quito, Santiago and Georgetown, and plenty of other reasons to visit besides. For an adventure that promises dizzying heights and unexpected depths, look no further than South America. This is a continent that will keep you coming back for more.
