Wine region and city sightseeing in Mendoza
Iguaçu Falls trailsWith views of Devil’s Gorge
Reserved seats at Rio Carnival Winner’s Parade
Visit to Christ the Redeemer by cog railway
This 16-night escorted tour with Just You crosses three South American countries, beginning in Santiago, where a city tour includes San Cristobal Hill with views of the Andes foothills. A scenic drive over the mountains leads to Mendoza in Argentina’s main wine region, where a city tour introduces its orderly streets and leafy parks.
Buenos Aires brings a mix of wide plazas, pastel houses in La Boca and a cemetery crowded with legends like Eva Peron. From there it’s a short flight to the vast Iguaçu Falls, seen from trails that curve close to the tumbling water and the famous Devil’s Gorge.
The tour culminates with five nights in Rio de Janeiro, where Christ the Redeemer presides over beaches and hills. The highlight is reserved seating at the Rio Carnival’s Winner’s Parade in the Sambadrome, an event of music, costumes and floats hard to match for sheer spectacle. There’s time after the parade to wander the colonial forts or relax in a café with a caipirinha before flying home via Sao Paulo.
