I can picture you gazing up at the snowy Andes, feeling that rush to climb higher. I’ve paddled through the Amazon’s lush green tunnels, and I know you’ll be spellbound by the life that surrounds every bend. When you crave vibrant cities, I’ll point you toward streets where you can taste bold flavors, dance to local rhythms, and soak up cultures that stay with you long after you leave. Together, you and I will uncover epic landscapes, ancient wonders, and unforgettable moments across South America.

  • Marvel at Machu Picchu’s ancient ruins high in Peru’s Sacred Valley.

  • Experience the tango, architecture, and street life of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
  • Wander the colorful streets and hills of Valparaíso, Chile.
  • See glaciers, lakes, and dramatic peaks in Patagonia across Chile and Argentina.
