South America vacations

South America vacations are unlike anything else on earth. Chile's Atacama, earth's oldest and driest desert – yet dotted with snow-capped peaks and jetting geysers. Bolivia's high-altitude Andes harbouring Lake Titicaca. Colombia's history-soaked Caribbean coast, the vibrant hill villages of mainland Ecuador, Guyana's 'Lost World' wildernesses. The Inca Trail, Patagonia, Galapagos, Iguazu, the Amazon. The list, like the continent, is infinite.
