The legendary fizz of Argentina and Brazili’s not simply infectious but possessive. Our tour will have you wriggling and jerking to the smooth, seductive beat of South America in no time.
No doubt, the only way to immerse in the sizzling spirit of flamboyant Buenos Aires is to express yourself! Tears, laughter, passion and love, they all become one on the dance floor. The spectacle of the great domes looming over the patriotic sculptures and époque fountains are the only thing you want. If you’re looking to celebrate, then nowhere does it better than this beautiful metropolis. South America's got soul…lots of it.
When tired of partying, there is plenty to blow your mind at Iguazu Falls! Discover one of nature’s greatest wonders as you behold the haunting sight of a rainbow stretching its transparent rays over the world’s largest waterfall system. Taller than Niagara Falls and twice as wide, Iguazu Falls, named a UNESCO site, claimed another title as one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature.
There is no better way to describe the magic of the enchanting Brazilian city of Rio then with the words of composer Andre Filho; Rio de Janeiro is a land that seduces all. As you make your way into the Wonderful City, watch the towering Corcovado Mountain adorned with Christ that looks like he is welcoming to the fiesta below- a clear sign from above that its time to join the party!
Your journey of a lifetime begins in Buenos Aires. On arrival at the airport, you’ll be met with a friendly “Hola” from your Argentine host and transferred to the hotel for a memorable stay. It is recommended that you spend your first day at leisure recovering from your international journey. Buenos Aires is la Capital, where a sultry tango heats up the “milongas” (dance halls), young men holler at gargantuan soccer stadiums, and taxis dart across the world’s widest avenues; if you’re looking to for escapism and culture, then nowhere does it better than this elegant metropolis, where the porteños, as the inhabitants are called, move to a rhythm of their own. On this journey, you will experience the very essence of South America and its heady potion of Latino romance and excitement.
OVERNIGHT IN BUENOS AIRES
Buenos Aires defines “sizzle”… and you’ll see why when a local guide on a half day tour shows you the city, also known as “Paris of South America”. After breakfast, you will start your adventure by arriving at the monumental Palacio del Congreso (National Congress Palace), whose great dome looms above a tapestry of patriotic sculptures and époque fountains.
Next up is a visit to the Civic Center at Plazo de Mayo, Metropolitan Cathedral and Casa Rosada (Pink House) where you’ll see the balcony made famous by Evita Perón. You will also visit the grand Cabildo, used during the colonial era. Proceed to the Teatro Colon, ranked the third best opera house in the world by National Geographic.
San Telmo offers a fascinating contrast: here, you will walk the narrow, cobbled streets and pass the colonial-style homes and hip bars. Stop at the La Boca neighborhood, which is both a working class “barrio” and artist colony. Walking the city’s youngest and least conventional barrio, Puerto Madero, you'll see that the old brick warehouses have been converted into some of the city’s trendiest buildings. Continue to the botanical wonders of Palermo Gardens and the fashionable shops in Recoleta.

The passionate, sensual dance will sweep you away as you learn about the history of the tango show, its music and traditions.

Enjoy a walk along the Falls Trail and view the waterfall from different angles until you arrive at the walkways that give you a close up look at La Garganta del Diablo (Devil’s Throat). This is just the beginning of what is to come: 275 falls of raging water and splendid grandeur!
“Unlike Any Waterfall on Earth” – CNN Iguazu translates as “the big water” in the language of the Tupi-Guarani natives and in a hidden corner of Paraná, facing 275 falls of raging water that rise dramatically from the Iguazu River, the city of Iguaçu is set against a backdrop of great natural beauty. You might have visited other magnificent waterfalls before, but nothing will prepare you for when you come face to face with the world’s largest waterfall system.
Taller than Niagara Falls and twice as wide, Iguazu Falls, named a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site, claimed another title as one of the “New Seven Wonders of Nature” by the New Seven Wonders of the World Foundation in 2011. Magic is in the air as we arrive at the Visitors’ Center.
Discover one of nature’s greatest wonders as you behold the sight of a rainbow stretching its transparent rays over the group of monsters frothing at the mouth.
