Witness two New Seven Wonders of the World – take a guided tour of the mother of all Inca ruins at Machu Picchu in the Peruvian Andes, then see the immense Christ the Redeemer overlooking Rio.

Itinerary
Dreaming of ticking off world wonders and immersing yourself in South American culture? This 18-day tour traverses Peru, Argentina, and Brazil, blending vibrant cities, awe-inspiring landscapes, and rich traditions. Starting in Lima and ending in Rio de Janeiro, you’ll uncover the heart of the Inca empire, trek through lush jungles, and explore cosmopolitan centers like Buenos Aires and Rio.
Highlights include a guided adventure through Machu Picchu’s misty peaks and a visit to Christ the Redeemer, two bucket-list icons. Along the way, you’ll meet locals, spot exotic wildlife, and sample regional cuisine, all while traveling in a small group for a more intimate experience.
This trip’s unique selling point is its combination of two world-renowned sights with everyday cultural encounters—offering travelers an all-encompassing journey through South America’s most memorable destinations.
day 1Lima
Bienvenidos! Welcome to Peru. Your adventure begins in the capital city of Lima with a welcome meeting at 2 pm. You’ll meet your fellow travellers and trip leader, then head out for a stroll of the streets of downtown to check out some of the main attractions on a walking tour. Enjoy some free time before an optional group dinner this evening. The unofficial food capital of South America, there’s no better place to sample Peru’s national dish (ceviche) than Lima. As there's little time spent in Lima on this trip, it’s recommended that you arrive a few days early to see the sights, like Miraflores, Central Park, Lovers' Park and the National Museum.
