South & Central America

We offer an outstanding selection of South America hiking holidays, which range from gentle scenic hikes around the island of Cuba, to exploring the wild plains, galciers, lakes and mountains of Patagonia.

We also offer South America hiking trips which cover Brazil and the Iguassu Falls, covering all the mesmerising sights in between from Sugar Loaf Mountain to the Statue of Christ the Redeemer, and the exotic tango clubs of Buenos Aires. Nature-lovers will love our South America trekking breaks around Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands, which give visitors the chance to spot the species which enthralled Charles Darwin one hundred years earlier and inspired his work on evolution.

The High Andes
In this (relatively) small area where Argentina and Chile border Bolivia we have a microcosm of South America. From the high border pass at Paso de Jama (4200m) surrounded by Andean peaks where nothing grows to the abundant wine valleys around Cafayate, this is as diverse an adventure as you could imagine.
