Welcome to
Latin America
Latin America
From the unchartered Amazon Rainforest to glaciers, volcanoes and lakes, Latin America provides an unrivalled experience for those who consider themselves world travelers.
Latin America covers more than 7.4 million square miles, stretching from Mexico in the north to Argentina and Chile in the south. It is home to the Andes, the world’s longest mountain range, and the Amazon, the largest rainforest on earth, which contains an estimated 10% of global biodiversity. Major cities such as São Paulo, Buenos Aires, and Mexico City rank among the largest urban areas in the world, while remote villages continue traditions preserved for centuries. Spanish and Portuguese dominate as the main languages, but more than 400 Indigenous languages are still spoken today.
Â
The region’s culture reflects Indigenous, European, and African influences. Argentina is known for tango and internationally recognized wines, Brazil for Carnival and the vast Amazon basin, and Peru for the Inca legacy of Machu Picchu. The Galapagos Islands in Ecuador are a UNESCO World Heritage Site for their unique biodiversity, while Chile’s Atacama Desert is the driest non-polar desert on earth. With such range in geography and heritage, private guided tours in Latin America give travelers the opportunity to experience both iconic landmarks and the living traditions that define each destination.
Central America
Central America forms a narrow land bridge between North and South America, bordered by the Pacific Ocean on one side and the Caribbean Sea on the other. Its rainforests are among the most biodiverse ecosystems in the world, home to toucans, howler monkeys, and jaguars. Ancient Maya cities such as Tikal in Guatemala reveal advanced knowledge of astronomy and architecture, while colonial towns showcase centuries of Spanish influence. Spanish is the main language, though English and Indigenous languages are also widely spoken across the region.
Â
Mexico, the most populous country in the region with more than 126 million people, contains 35 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the highest number in the Americas. Highlights include archaeological centers such as Chichen Itza and Teotihuacan, as well as historic cities like Oaxaca and Puebla. Mexican cuisine was the first to be recognized by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage, with regional specialties like mole and dishes rooted in Indigenous corn traditions.
Â
Private guided tours in Central America combine historic depth with natural settings, supported by private transport, carefully selected accommodations, and expert local guides who bring context to each experience.
South America
South America holds some of the world’s most recognized landmarks and natural wonders. Argentina spans nearly 1.1 million square miles and includes the Pampas, Patagonia, and Iguazu Falls on its border with Brazil. Its capital, Buenos Aires, is known for European-style boulevards, cultural institutions, and historic neighborhoods.
Â
Brazil, the largest country in Latin America, covers almost half the continent and is home to the Amazon River system, the Pantanal wetlands, and Rio de Janeiro’s Christ the Redeemer statue. Peru is defined by its Andean highlands and Inca heritage, with Machu Picchu designated one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.
Â
Chile stretches more than 2,600 miles along the Pacific coast, encompassing the Atacama Desert in the north and glaciers in the far south. Uruguay and Paraguay reflect both Indigenous and colonial traditions, maintaining close ties to agriculture and regional crafts. Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands combine equatorial landscapes with wildlife that exists nowhere else on earth.
Private guided tours in South America are designed to connect travelers with these diverse settings, supported by expert planning, private transport, and accommodations that reflect both quality and character.
