South America & Central America
From some of the world's best trekking in Patagonia's national parks to exploring Costa Rican cloud-forests; venturing upriver in Ecuador's Amazon to standing in awe of iconic Iguazu Falls - Latin America does nature on an unashamedly grand scale. Wherever you choose to go, getting up close with the Andes, Amazon, and Central American heartlands is an endlessly rewarding adventure, not just for the scenery but for the culture as well: that unique blend of old-world colonial splendour, Latin rhythms and fascinating Mayan and Incan ancient civilisations. That mix reaches its highpoint in Peru, where days spent on the beautiful, challenging Inca Trail lead you to Machu Picchu. And the cities: crossroads of a continent Cusco; unabashedly sexy Rio; soulful, tangoing Buenos Aires; boisterous, myth-laden Havana. Latin America's melting pots move to a different beat, and captivate all of who visit.

A great mix of Mayan sites and Mexican and Guatemalan towns and markets. Colour and life and history and good food.
Lima to La Paz

A well organised trip to an exciting destination. The people we met from the guides to the locals, without exception were very friendly. A relatively safe destination with the usual precautions. Definitely do the flights over Nazca and don't be put off by warnings. They are very safe and professional.
An amazing variety of stunning landscapes.
Learn a little Spanish, it goes a long way.

"All the guides and tour leaders were fantastic, and the staff that took us along the trip and supported us were extremely helpful and pleasant to deal with and made the experience even more memorable. A huge "thank you" to all our guides for everything you did for us, we will never forget it."
