General
Discover the cultures and contrasts of South America as you journey from the carnival city of Rio de Janeiro to Chile’s Santiago over 17 magical days.

Unparalleled views abound from the top of Rio’s Sugar Loaf Mountain, then prepare to be amazed by the 1,400-ton granite statue of Christ the Redeemer looking down over the city.

Be sure to have your cameras at the ready as you set off to see both the Brazilian and Argentine sides of the thundering Iguassu Falls, a photographer’s dream of magical rainbows and plunging cascades of water.

Then from Buenos Aires to Puerto Varas to Santiago, the excitement never ends.

And if 17 days is just not enough, you can add on a 4-night pre-tour extension to the Amazon Jungle or a 5-night extension to one of the Seven Wonders of the World, Machu Picchu, and discover the ruins of the “Lost City of the Incas.”
