South America Tour Reviews
Genuine reviews from travelers on South America tours
I can’t imagine doing this trip without this company and especially our guide team. They went BEYOND above and beyond. When booking I highly recommend requesting Fernando as your tour guide, Teofilo as your chef, Vicente as your porter, and Yuri as your horseman. No
This is a great trip to see a variety of unique environments and to learn about the history of these areas. Andres is an excellent tour guide and leader. As the itinerary is so packed there is limited time for hiking or more strenuous activity. Definitely recommend this trip.
Well crafted itinerary and most iconic travel to Machu Picchu...the travel director *********** deserves high praise...he set the epic tone of the trip by being ever so kind ...thank u! He was also very knowledgeable and great fun...with his able leadership we all moved as one synchronized whole. The hotels are good but trafalgar would do well to replace El Mapi with something better. Dinners and other experiences are all good but pl add more local cuisine. Thank u for a memorable trip!
This trip was a memorable one. I won't forget this one. From the amazing food from Teofilo or Vicente the porter that carried the extra weight when we went over the weight limit.
This trip really is an adventure. From San Pedro de Atacama and The Devil's Throat Gorge taking in Geysers (and if you book it yourself the most amazing star gazing astronomy expereince) Chile is impressive but is quickly over shadowed by the wonders of cycling in Salta Argentina. So many days of amazing geology and scenery it is both joyful and overwhelmingly beautiful. Read the full itinerary and then visualise that more or less every one of those days will be spectacular. Highlights included the downhill ride to the Hill of Seven Colours, the Los Cardones National Park (thousands and thousands of cacti and mountains) and the cycle along the Conchas river which is just life affirming. There's also a free day in Salta which is great as it's a traditional Argentian city with a lot of quirky culture and history and some great steak restaurants. We also had quite a few trips to vineyards to do winetasting which Alejandro was happy to organise.
Thoroughly enjoyed this trip and has been one of my favourite trips with Explore. The wildlife has been magical and it was amazing to see such an abundance of animals just on the doorstep of the lodges we were staying in as well as on the tours. The group was a fantastic bunch of people and our driver Haimer was a real gentleman. Our guide Allan was so passionate and it came across in his vast knowledge of wildlife. He was a great organiser and very patient and a pleasure to be around. Thanks again Explore for another fabulous unforgettable experience!
