Patagonia and the Andes (through some of the
continent’s most breathtaking scenery), we’ll share
the pleasures of this wonderfully diverse continent

American cities – two in Santiago, and three in Buenos
Aires and Rio de Janeiro – at fine hotels in the heart
of each city. Cross the Andes overland and by private
boat. View spectacular Iguazú Falls from both Brazil
