Absolutely amazing trip. Stunning scenery on every day. The highlight was definitely watching the sunset and then star gazing at the salt flats in Bolivia, but so many others too - geysers, brilliantly coloured mountains & lagoons, flamingos, vicuna / llama / alpaca, volcanos, wine tasting - all truly memorable experiences. We extended for a couple of extra nights in Buenos Aires and one in Santiago, which were well worth doing, esp in BA. We've always had great Explore tour leaders, but Carolina could be the best - knowledgeable, enthusiastic and a great sense of humour - she really enhanced the trip and became a good friend of us all. A special mention to all the local guides too, Jazmin, Wilbur & Romina who were excellent and our team of drivers too.
