Discover South America with World Expeditions
On this complete panorama of South America we combine the cultural highlights with time in the Amazon jungle and a well-devised trek in the Andes. If you have not trekked before don't worry, our "five" star trekking service will ensure a safe and satisfying experience. Exploring the cultural dimensions of our journey we travel from Buenos Aires, the vibrant Paris of South America, and the magnificent Iguazu Falls to Lima. We continue onto Cusco, with its endearing Inca and Spanish heritage and La Paz with its colourful markets and live music clubs. By contrast, the more active stages of the program will provide further enduring memories. In the rainforest of the Amazon jungle, we undertake gentle canoe trips in search of the prolific birdlife, while in the Andes we trek for four days along a beautiful, recently restored Inca Trail. In the company of our experienced guides we follow an ancient granite trail through orchid-filled cloud forest before finally ascending the last section of the legendary trail into Machu Picchu.
