Escorted Tour

The Best of South America

This journey is full on contrasts, from the fascinating Inca ruins at Mach Picchu to the beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana.

Peru, Bolivia, Argentina and Brazil beckon and from the moment you first step foot on the South American continent, you’ll be surrounded by places and peoples steeped in culture and history. Just a few hundred years ago the conquering Spanish held sway yet a flight over the mysterious Nazca lines will reveal shapes created over 2,000 years ago. You’ll explore the famed Machu Picchu, the lost city of the Incas constructed in the 15th century. From there we cross the Andes and cruise Lake Titicaca before our journey takes us onward to the roaring falls of Iguazu and the famed statue of Christ the Redeemer high above Rio de Janeiro.
