The South American Sojourn 24 Day Tour Departs every August or September: If this is to be your only trip to South America, or an introduction to a continent you wish to explore further. We are sure you will find the stunning range of highlights, unique activities and local flavour, all contribute to the trip of a lifetime.
The following tour is in Brazil, Argentina, Peru & Bolivia. 24 days from Rio to Lima
Fully escorted from Rio, with a kiwi bilingual tour leader, plus some expert local guides. Choose this trip if you either think you will only visit South America once to sample of the highlights, or to become familiar with the area so you can then come back for further in depth travel to specific regions.
It will give you a taste of the diverse cultures and geography that is South America and will whet your appetite to explore further. You will experience a variety of climatic zones from the steamy Amazon Basin and tropical heat of Rio, to the cool heights of the Andean Altiplano. This is a moderately active trip which you’ll enjoy it more if you are at least of average fitness. There is moderate walking involved on most days and all of the Inca sites have lots of steps. This can be a bit tougher with the altitude in areas like Cuzco, Puno and La Paz. Be prepared to travel a on a variety of transport from planes to motorized canoes, buses and private mini vans. The buses are large comfortable coaches with reclining seats. Accommodation is simple, cosy and comfortable with en-suite rooms and hot water, all around a 3 star standard. Hotels are chosen for their safety, location, ambience and friendly staff. There may be one multi-share night (triple or quad) at the home stay on Lake Titicaca. If you enjoy travelling in a small group and look forward to unique experiences, this will be the trip for you.
