South America Sightseeing Tour Reviews
Genuine reviews from travelers on Sightseeing South America tours
Pamela | Traveled in April
The hotel in Buenos Aires wasn't in a great neighborhood--Palermo would have been much nicer. My only complaint about the itinerary was too much downtime in San Pedro de Atacama. It would have been good to have one afternoon free, but two was too much without an idea of what else there is to do. Even providing a list of possible excursions would have been helpful. Other than that, I loved the itinerary--we saw and did so much! I preferred spending three night in Uyuni--our scheduled night in Tupiza was changed due to elections that day. However, even though you changed our itinerary to have us stay in Uyuni that night, our drivers couldn't take us out because they didn't have permission to do so until late afternoon/early evening. Everything worked out OK in the end, but we basically sat around all day in the hotel, and I think that could have been handled better. Our guide for the whole trip, Carolina, was superb! She was knowledgeable, friendly, and very approachable. Our local guides were also good, some more than others.
Diana | Traveled in March
Andras was very enthusiastic hard working and caring. He always wanted to give that little bit more. Sometimes instructions were a little bit muddled or contained a bit too much information, but he was always willing to answer questions and he made sure we came to love Colombia. I found the country very interesting and the tour very varied and colourful. It definitely exceeded my expectations.
