5 Countries: Peru – Bolivia – Paraguay – Brazil - Argentina - 21 days
This kaleidoscope of South America is unbeatable for value, offering you the very best of this diverse continent.
Travelling with Lan Chile you will begin your adventure of discovery in Lima Peru, City of Kings. Here you have an afternoon to browse through the world famous Gold Museum before arriving in the Andes and Cusco the red-tiled capital of the Inca Empire. Spend two days exploring the famous and mystical citadel. Cusco is the Heart of the Inca Empire, city of terracotta rooves and cobblestone streets. Marvel at the precise Inca stone architecture and surrounding Inca ruins. From here the magical ruins of Machu Picchu await you! We guarantee this will be a moment you will never forget – it’s better than the postcards.
Then to the white city of Arequipa and a spectacular journey into the Colca Canyon, home of the mighty Condor. Journey to Lake Titicaca, lying at nearly 4000 metres above sea level, this is the largest lake in South America. Travel across the lake and the stark Altiplano enjoying spectacular scenery and dramatic landscapes all the way to colourful bustling La Paz where traditional culture still shares the streets with glass towers and the traffic of life in the new millennium. Fly into the heart of South America, Asuncion with its interesting colonial architecture, then on to Iguacu Falls. 275 cascades falling in a wild array of spray over a winding 3km cliff face into the gorge 60metres below is very impressive!
