Corcovado: Climb into the clouds to the top of Corcovado Mountain to visit the iconic Christ the Redeemer. You’ll ride the Corcovado Railway, the first electrified railroad in Brazil, and an icon itself. The railway is actually older than the monument and even transported the pieces of the monument. The train has taken popes, kings, princes, presidents, artists, scientists - and now you - since its start in 1884. You’ll feel good about your travels too knowing that this electric train doesn’t pollute the surrounding Tijuca National Park. As you ascend 2,379 feet, consider the history of Christ the Redeemer built from 1926-1931, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and one of the most famous Art Déco sculptures. Gaze out the window at the views of the Rio de Janeiro and, at the top, stand beneath the famous statue’s feet looking up to its top of 98 feet high.

Board the open-sided Ecological Jungle Train for a quiet ride through Iguazú National Park’s subtropical rainforest. Moving gently along the tracks, you’ll feel the warm air and hear the forest around you as the train carries you towards Devil’s Throat Viewpoint.

Buenos Aires: Embark on a Buenos Aires City Tour with a Local Specialist. Walk through the wide boulevards of this beautiful capital admiring the spirit of a city whose European and Latin American influences can be seen around every turn. See the pink palace, the seat of the Argentine national government and president's office whose balcony Juan and “Evita” Perón addressed the people in the 1940s and 1950s. Visit the cathedral and wander through the lively and colourful La Boca neighbourhood lined with restaurants, street artists and local art around every corner.

Lima: Take in the highlights of Lima, the 'City of the Kings,' including a panoramic view of the ancient districts. Join a Local Specialist for a visit to the UNESCO-listed Historic Center. Learn how before it was destroyed by earthquakes in the mid-18th century, observing how the historic buildings display a collaboration between local craftspeople and others from the Old World. Then drive along the coastline as you learn more about the fascinating history of Peru's capital city. 

Sacred Valley: Join a MAKE TRAVEL MATTER Experience at Chinchero Sunday Market, where fruit, vegetables and handwoven goods fill the stalls. Your Local Specialist will introduce you to local produce such as potatoes, with the chance to taste seasonal fruit and learn about chicha, the traditional corn-based drink.

Machu Picchu: Take a shuttle to the top of the mountain where you’ll meet your local specialist for a guided hike of Machu Picchu. You’ll learn about Machu Picchu’s history and the use of each section of including ceremonial, storage, agriculture, temples, astronomical, and observatory as well as the possible reasons why the Incas left Machu Picchu.

Step inside the family home of Mrs Rosa, where Incan stonework has stood for generations. You’ll learn how guinea pigs are traditionally raised within the household and hear about customs that have been passed down through the family, offering a personal look at traditions still practised today.

Cusco: Join your Local Specialist for a guided walk through Cusco's colonial centre, including the nearby 13th-century Incan settlement of Koricancha. Here in Cusco’s Golden Temple of the Sun dedicated to the Sun God Inti, view the trapezoidal and irregular shapes and rounded edges. Note how the stones fit together and were built simply by placing them on top of each other without using any mortar. This staggered placement also enables them to withstand earthquakes.

At a women-owned empanada workshop in Pisaq, you’ll join Mrs Ernestina to learn how her family makes traditional empanadas using seven varieties of flour. Follow techniques passed down through four generations, then bite into a freshly made empanada and taste the results for yourself.
