Featured Adventures

  • This 13-day 3-Guianas Budget Tour offers travelers a rare chance to explore three of South America’s least-visited regions—Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana. Each distinct in culture, language, and history, yet linked by geography and a shared colonial past. Designed for value-minded adventurers, this journey combines natural wonders, indigenous traditions, and European heritage with comfortable accommodations and efficient logistics across borders that few travelers ever cross.

  • The exclusive “Butler’s Green + Blue Package” is the ultimate way to feel pampered in an exquisite yet relaxed setting. The perfect combination of clear blue waters and deep green jungles, our newest package helps you explore the best of Belize in the picture-perfect luxury.

  • Get ready for an unforgettable journey through the heart of Chiapas, where ancient traditions, lush jungles, and vibrant cultures await you at every turn. This itinerary is designed to immerse you in the soul of southern Mexico—from the dramatic cliffs of Sumidero Canyon to the mystical ruins of Palenque, each day offers a new adventure, a deeper connection, and a fresh perspective.

  • Guyana rewards curiosity. It’s a country that has managed to keep its wild heart intact—an expanse of rainforest, rivers, and savannahs that remains more lived-in than overrun. This journey traces its contrasts: the creole pulse of Georgetown’s markets, the ancient calm of the interior, and the thundering solitude of Kaieteur Falls.

  • Discover the heart of Central America on a romantic and historic journey through Nicaragua. This specially curated itinerary blends the rich, colonial heritage of Granada with the serene natural beauty of the Pacific coast, offering a perfect escape for couples seeking both adventure and relaxation. Prepare to immerse yourselves in a world of vibrant culture, breathtaking landscapes, and unforgettable experiences.

  • Escape the grey winter weather and head south to this small colonial city on the Caribbean Sea, replete with exquisite restaurants, breathtaking hotels, stunning colonial villas, and an endless array of parties.

Featured Hotels

  • Tierra Viva Hotel Cusco Centro in Cusco, Peru maintains the feeling of an antique residence built with stone, tiles, adobe and wood. Tierra Viva has restored the residence belonging to the Velasco Ordoñez family in order to open a hotel with 43 rooms distributed between three floors.

  • Iguazú Grand Resort Spa & Casino is a luxury resort destination conveniently located in Puerto Iguazú, Argentina. Experience contact with nature, fun for all kids in our Club de la Selva's kids club, and relax in our stylish rooms surrounded by gardens and pools at the Iguazú Grand Resort.

  • Right in front of Nahuel Huapi Lake in Bariloche, Argentina, Design Suites Bariloche offers rooms with lake or mountain views. Incomparable views, its heated pool and various services differentiate it from the rest of the hotels and make it the ideal lodging option.

  • Eolo Lodge - Patagonia's Spirit is located 30 minutes from El Calafate, Argentina, on the way to Perito Moreno Glacier, strategically located in the La Anita Valley, on the eastern side of Mount Frías. The hotel is conveniently located halfway between the city of El Calafate and Los Glaciares National Park, yet far from the commotion of the tourist activity in the area.

The hotel sits on a bluff where the vast pampas meet Lake Sarmiento, and enjoys a magnificent view of Torres del Paine peaks on the other side of the lake. Emerging beside craggy mountains and the glistening Lake Sarmiento in Torres del Paine National Park, Tierra Patagonia weaves itself into the landscape with subtle style, blending into the magnificence of the region.
