Embark on a 16-day odyssey through the vibrant heart of South America, from the lush vineyards of Mendoza to the thundering cascades of Iguazu Falls, and the pulsating rhythms of Salvador and Rio. Your journey begins amidst the sun-kissed vineyards of Mendoza, where you'll savor the finest wines and indulge in the beauty of the Andes. Next, venture to the cultural mecca of Buenos Aires, where tango beats resonate through the streets and history whispers from every corner.
Prepare to be awestruck as you stand before the awe-inspiring majesty of Iguazu Falls, a natural wonder that defies description. Then, immerse yourself in the Afro-Brazilian rhythms and vibrant colors of Salvador, where every step is a dance and every glance a celebration of life.
Throughout your journey, indulge in the pinnacle of luxury accommodation, from the colonial elegance of Hotel das Cataratas Belmond to the timeless glamour of Copacabana Palace Belmond.
