South America might be home to only 12 countries, but you’ll be shocked at how much there is to do in each one. It’s so rewarding to plan a South American vacation and witness a traveller come to truly understand all that is possible when exploring this continent, from trekking through rainforests to relaxing on coastlines, to exploring the most gorgeous, windswept regions of the world to gazing upon some of its greatest historical treasures.

Experience unbound wonder in South America

Otherworldly Nature
The world’s largest rainforest. The world’s widest river. The world’s driest desert and largest salt flats. Most continents would be happy with one, but South America has all of them. This is a place to stand in awe of nature, from the biodiverse volcanic landscapes of the Galapagos Islands to the mountain peaks and steppes of Patagonia. A trip to South America is an adventure into the lushest, brightest, densest nature imaginable.

Inca Treasures
At its height, the Inca Empire stretched from the south of Colombia to central Chile, leaving timeless treasures in its wake. Head on a South American vacation to hike the Inca Trail and scale the mist-draped mountains to reach Machu Picchu, the Lost Citadel of the Incas. Explore the awe-inspiring ruins of the Sacred Valley, from Ollantaytambo to Pisac to the Inca capital of Cusco. See the Temple of the Sun at Ingapirca in Ecuador. And feel history come alive every step of the way.

Culinary Delights
Good food, fine wine, great company—you’ll find it all on a tour of South America. Enjoy culinary innovations at the world’s most celebrated restaurants in Lima. Savour robust reds and delicate whites in the wine region of Mendoza. Feast upon succulent barbeque in Buenos Aires and sample the vibrant street flavours of Rio de Janeiro. At every step of the way, meet people who are welcoming and know how to treat visitors like family.
What do the experts say?
The Festes Majors are summer festivals held in the villages of Andorra. Each festival is unique to the village, with its own distinct style.
The Pyrenean Mountain scenery and tax-free shopping are two of my favourite things about travelling to Andorra.
I love learning about Nicaragua's culture and experiencing its Spanish influence in some cities. I was only there for five days, but I'll never forget how delicious the food was and how welcoming and extremely polite the people were.
The Day of the Dead in Guatemala is a great local tradition where people gather to fly giant, intricately decorated kites to honour the dead.
The colourful Spanish architecture, the beautiful scenery, particularly the stunning lakes, and the Mayan ruins are what I love most about Guatemala!
