So many different types of experiences that it’s impossible to compare which is the favorite. The camaraderie of the group? The wine tastings? Ranches, farms, riding a horse? Big city sights? The moving dictatorship remembrance sites in Chile and Argentina? But I will say that Iguazú falls were spectacular!

The tour manager was excellent. He loves life and he loves people. He gave us up to date information, took care of all individual issues and needs. Would travel with him anytime and anywhere. All bus excursions were short and sweet. The food and wine were great. Tango class very enjoyable. The Milango experience lovely. Would go back to Buenos Aires just to tango and eat empanadas. Food in Santiago Chile delicious. Never had fresher fish and tasty cerviche. Chilean wines were surprisingly good. Urban art in Buenos Aires photo Farm outside Buenos Aires with horses and riding

The visits to both vineyards were good. The extension to Brasil was wonderful. We truly marveled at Iguazu Falls. The bird sanctuary was a highlight, too.

I love the adventure of traveling as much ground as possible and this tour did not disappoint! Three countries, 3 flights, great vineyards, amazing hands on activities, farm to table experiences, and so much more! The people and conversations with others make the experiences so memorable! I love how Collette takes care of you from start to finish of their trips, have a top-notch app for us to use, brings the groups together with their meals and keeps us relatively close to our group in hotels. Overall, the planning and implementation of each trip has been impeccable!
