Explore this massive city, on a guided walk. Squeeze in a night of samba in this famous party town.
Days 2-3
Parati
At high tide, the charming cobblestone pedestrian-only streets of Parati become partially covered in sea water. The bay is perfect for swimming, and the surrounding national parks are filled with trails just begging to be explored.
Days 4-6
Iguazu Falls
The name of these falls means 'Great Waters' in the Tupi-Guarani tongue, and they are indeed massive. View them from the Brazilian side for grand panoramas and the Argentinean side to get close to the thundering waters.
It's easy to see why the Portenos are so proud of their city. There is a weekend market in San Telmo, lots of interesting museums in Recoleta and historic buildings aplenty in the Plaza de Mayo.
Days 9-10
Bariloche
In a region of lakes and mountains, try hiking and biking to skiing. Another attraction is the food. Menus boast fresh salmon, lake trout and amazing Argentinean beef steak, with fine chocolates for dessert.
Days 11-12
Puerto Varas
Travel across the Andes and explore the forests, glaciers, lakes and mountains in Puerto Varas. Take an optional day tour to Chiloe Island or go for a hike through the hills surrounding Orsono Volcano.
Spend a day tantalising the tastebuds with a winery tour. Learn about Chile's wine-making history, sampling crisp whites and robust reds. Spend time exploring Santiago, radiating from the Plaza de Armas or take a cable car up to Cerro San Cristobal for amazing vistas across the city.
