South America Tours in July 2027

I loved all of the excursions that we went on, especially the boat ride at Iguazu Falls. Everything was well planned and organized. I felt completely safe at all times. Our tour guide () was amazing and always kept us well informed.

Just finished my Costa Rica Trip and had the best time ever!! If you are considering it DO IT!!! I’ve been on many many group tours and this was by far the best I have done to date! The group leader - Elmer, honestly made the trip and just went above and beyond in every possible way to ensure we were having a good time! Will definitely be booking another Intro trip soon as it was the best two weeks ever!

Two weeks through Colombia and Peru, and it felt like we packed in a lifetime of memories. It was busy, yes, but in the best way, every day brought something new and unexpected. Cartagena was our first stop, hot and humid, but absolutely beautiful. Great seafood & some of the most charming streets I’ve walked through in a long time. The coffee region was a real highlight for me. I’ve always enjoyed a good cup but actually seeing how it’s grown and meeting the people behind it added a whole new appreciation. Brought back a few bags and now I can’t drink anything else. Bogota was big and bustling. A bit hectic at times, but had a nice energy to it. The view from Monserrate was well worth the climb (well...cable car in our case!). Then Peru — absolutely stunning. Machu Picchu is everything they say and more. Pictures don’t do it justice. The Sacred Valley was peaceful, Cusco was full of character, and Lake Titicaca? Fascinating. I had no idea about the floating islands before this. A few early mornings here and there, but that’s part of the deal when you want to see so much. Would definitely recommend this trip to fellow travelers 50+ who are still up for an adventure but want it all organized for you. Just pack your walking shoes and an open mind, South America will take care of the rest.

Our tour guide, Diego was extremely knowledgable and excellent in organising everything to run smoothly. Our driver, Christian, was also very good as he kept us safe with his driving on some difficult roads. The tour was excellent with lots of interesting wildlife, walking and cultural visits. My only complaint was the last hotel that we stayed in, which was next to a busy main road and several miles from the beautiful Pacific coast. Otherwise the rest of the accommodation was fine.

As our guide would say "The point is this, my friends"... and the day begins. This was one of the best experience I have had. Our guide - Gary - made sure we were on schedule on the trek. He explained to us all the pros and cons and how to get the most out of the Inca Trail. The porters were great. The chef - Julio - made the best camp meals for vegetarians. The scenery is breathtaking. Yes it may seem long and a lot of walking but its worth it. The team made the whole journey worthwhile - from booking to the end. Rosmel - our booking contact kept us informed all the time. Don't hesitate, just do it. Great guide, chef and company. Mahesh

Peru Explorer was exactly the right amount of days to experience all the highlights and still have time for a bit of R & R. Price was great, and the tour director made the experience all the more special.
