Argentina is a fascinating land of contrasts. From its cosmopolitan cities to its stunning natural beauty, the one common thread is that its people possess a genuine passion and zest for life. The Tango, gauchos and estancias are famous attractions, but perhaps it is Argentina’s natural history that truly astounds. National parks teem with wildlife and mountainous vistas, the Patagonia mystifies, while the colossal Perito Moreno Glacier and Iguazú Falls are natural wonders of the world. Buenos Aires is the sophisticated capital brimming with character, excellent shopping, spectacular nightlife and fine dining. Vastly unexplored, Argentina is an adventure just waiting to happen.

Bolivia's cultural wealth, with its relics of ancient civilizations, is more than enough reason to visit. This vast, isolated country's landscape ranges from barren terrain to lush tropical jungles. Bolivia's isolation is the reason that you can still see indigenous women wearing multi-layered petticoats and locals weaving colourful textiles in the same fashion that their ancestors did centuries ago.

Although Santiago is not often the first city that comes to mind when talking about a Latin American metropolis, its
subdued charm and quiet chic certainly deserve to be in the same category as Buenos Aires or Rio de Janeiro. It’s this ambience along with the
perfect blend of old meets new which makes the capital city so enticing.
The two geographical landmarks which characterise this city are the majestic wall of the Andes to the west and the
two arms of the Mapocho River which encompass the city centre. Santiago is a metropolis on the edge of a vast natural wilderness, which means there are endless things to do, see and experience.

magnificent diversity of landscape, from clean tropical beaches and

The Amazon, the Andes and the Galapagos are world famous wonders, and all can be found in Ecuador. The smallest country in the rugged Andes highlands, Ecuador has a multitude of vibrant indigenous cultures, charming colonial architecture, beautiful beaches and dense rainforest. Ecuador is small enough that if you have two weeks, you can see the best of everything. If you only have time to visit the Galápagos, you certainly won't be disappointed coming face to face with wild and rare animals. If you travel through the mainland, you will have the chance to discover the diverse wonders of this fascinating country.

Peru is one of the world’s most intriguing countries, both for its awe-inspiring natural attractions and for the legacy of the great Inca Empire in the form of lost cities and
brilliant architecture. There is something here for everyone; dazzling beaches, soaring Andes Mountains, Amazon jungle, and bustling cities.
The ancient Inca capital of Cuzco, in the south of the country, is perhaps the country’s leading attraction. At the other end of the spectrum, the capital city Lima is home to some highly impressive Spanish
colonial architecture, while the remote Amazon town of Iquitos provides access to the
Amazon basin.

A land of splendid contrasts, it contains one of South America's most interesting capitals, Montevideo, charming colonial towns, cowboy country nestled among rolling hills and a wealth of renowned beach resorts. With an impressive standard of living and excellent social services, it has become a model for other South American countries.

Discover its music, art, and literature, relax in the quiet countryside or be dazzled by the glitz and glamour of the Punta del Este beach resorts.
