Our favourite adventures in South America

Towering waterfalls and ancient city ruins, verdant mountains and rainbow peaks, magical salt plains and glacial fjords - South America is home to a treasure trove of magical wonders and a dream for any adventure traveller. Trekking, horse riding, scuba-diving and river rafting are just some of the activities our Lightfoot Travel experts can fit into a customised luxury holiday to South America.

Take to the beaches of Brazil and brave the waves with a dose of kite-surfing; or sand board down the dunes of Atacama Desert’s Death Valley in Chile.

Avid trekkers can take on the Inca Trail and venture to Peru’s Machu Picchu in the same way the ancient Incas did. Down south in the wilds of Argentina’s Patagonia, strap on your hiking boots and trek across the ice of the Perito Moreno Glacier.

Amongst the excitement, relax with world-class comforts such as boutique hotels with spectacular views and stylish transport.
