Travel in South America and feel the mist of Iguazú Falls on your face, hear the pulse of samba echo through the streets of Rio, and lose yourself in the endless green of the Amazon. From snow-capped Andean peaks to desert landscapes that resemble Mars, this continent offers adventure in every form. Whether you’re here for the wildlife, the culture, the adrenaline, or all three, South America promises something that’ll stay with you long after your passport’s been stamped.
