Discover South America's spellbinding blend of native cultures and international influences as you cross the continent from Santiago to Buenos Aires. In addition to touring these two great Latin American capitals, you'll experience the beauty of Argentina's mountains and Chile's seacoast on your journey.
Your base tour begins in Santiago, Chile's Andean capital city, from which you can explore the captivating Pacific coast. You'll then visit Puerto Varas, your stepping-off point for tours of the breathtakingly beautiful lakes region (which, with its European accents, assuredly does not fit any stereotype of Latin America!).
Next, cross the Andes Mountains to Bariloche, a chocolate-covered taste of the Alps in the heart of Patagonia. Your tour concludes in the capital of Argentina, Buenos Aires, where included sightseeing, Discovery Series events, and your own wanderings will give you a personal glimpse of Argentine life.
