ESCORTED TOURS TO SOUTH AMERICA WITH A DIFFERENCE : WE GO WITH YOU!

We have the advantage to have lived enough time in South America and Australia. We understand both cultures and utilise our extensive travelling experience in Latin America therefore we are able to put together the most authentic tours.

We escort each group tour every day, in every place until you board the last flight home. We are there to answer your questions, to assist you with language, to advise you on cultural tips, to help you with that gift for that special one. Each tour is planned to detail so you can enjoy the music, dancing, food, wines, breathtaking natural views, the culture, and 500 years of architecture in a very Aussie laid back style. The Latin American pace is respected so you can breathe at ease absorbing the relaxing atmosphere in a sensible and balanced way. We offer accommodation that reflects the character and history of the place we visit avoiding expensive international hotel chains.

As an example of one of our trips, we lland in Santiago where we will visit the city and one of the most prestigious wineries in the country: Concha y Toro. We'll fly south to the Patagonia region where we will cross the Andes going across the Chile-Argentinean border. The beauty of the scenery is something impossible to describe where four bus rides and three boats take our fully escorted passengers in a hassle free wonderful trip. After two days enjoying Bariloche's innumerable chocolate shops and scenery, Buenos Aires awaits us. Arrival to the one of most hectic cities in South America where over three days, we will experience the best steaks, shopping, city-seeing and tango dancing. One of the highlights is a full day visit to a traditional cattle station where we can taste the gaucho life. We'll fly to the province of Misiones where the Jesuit Missions ruins impact our passengers with their advanced social experiments that can be seen in a cutting edge technology Image and Sound show in the very same place that happened 400 years ago. We will drive to the Iguaz? Falls where scenery certainly is the climax of nature at work. Take a good camera! Next is the colonial city of Colonia in Uruguay, where we'll walk through cobblestone streets laid down in the 1600's. A short drive to Montevideo the Uruguayan capital, will take our fully escorted tour to visit landmarks like Parliament House and the Old City attending a Folklore, Tango and Candombe music show. After Montevideo a flight to Lima, Peru, dubbed the City of Kings, the capital of the Spanish Empire, in a sightseeing tour. Fervent devotion to the Catholic doctrine, introduced by the Spanish, means there is a convent or church on almost every street corner. Flight to Cuzco exploring one of the wonders of the World: Machu Picchu, the mist-cloaked lost city of the Incas built of rock at an altitude of 2,350 m on the saddle of a mountain. From Machu Picchu we are transferred by coach to the edge of Lake Titicaca, the highest lake of its size in the world 3,800 m, where we'll visit the Uros people, on floating islands, like huge straw-like nests and who describe their buoyant life as living "between water and heaven".

Or you can go to the Northern hemisphere and arrive to Mexico City. From there we will visit its surroundings cities (Puebla, Cholula, Cuernavaca and Taxco). Be marvelled by the Teotihuacan Pyramids, the art work of the first Spanish conquerors and the tradesmanship of the Aztecs. We go then to Guadalajara, the home of Tequila and the Mariachis. From there we go to the Cozumel region where we explore the city of Merida, stay in the Chitchen Itza complex where the Mayans use to have their capital, and enjoy the beauties of Cancun, one of the most famous beach resorts in the Northern Hemisphere. We move then to Guatemala and Belize for more wonderful contrasts between the Maya Civilization and their Spanish conquerors.
