Cultural Holidays in South America

With lost cities, rainbow mountains, salt plains and indigenous wildlife, cultural holidays in South America are imbued with a magic all of their own. From the Caribbean Coast of Venezuela to the glacial fjords of Patagonia, South America’s epic canvas combines a riotous mix of culture and outstanding adventure trails. Delve into the ancient cultures of Machu Picchu, watch passionate tango dancers on Argentina’s streets and immerse yourself in the traditions of a local family on a home stay.

Discover the ancient history and indigenous traditions of Peru when you experience the colourful Incan festival, Inti Raymi, also known as the Festival of the Sun. This vibrant event revives the ancient Incan rituals and pays tribute to Inti, the sun god, with its lively processions, traditional dances and age-old ceremonies. Alternatively, go island hopping in the Galapagos Islands, visit the colonial cities of Bolivia or explore the diverse Chilean landscapes.

As well as discovering the unique scenery and wildlife of each destination, you’ll also have the opportunity to try regional cuisines, learn about the fascinating history of a place and get to know the local people and their ancient traditions. From ancient Incan rituals to modern-day fiestas, our cultural holidays in South America take you on unforgettable adventures filled with immersive experiences and enriching insights that give you a deeper understanding of the continent’s diverse cultural tapestry. Our guided South America culture holidays are led by experts that impart their precious knowledge and steer you to hidden treasures on the road-less travelled, so you gain a unique and invaluable insight into each destination.

This trip was more amazing than I expected. The real stars were our travel guides Ian and Andy. Empathetic, caring, knowledgeable about the landscape and wildlife. Great cooks too.
I was lucky enough to travel with a great bunch of people who were great companions.

B Hawkins Discover Namibia – Camping

This trip was more than a holiday. It really helped you get under the skin of Sri Lanka and it’s people. From visiting temples and monuments, catching a sight of the varied wildlife or experiencing lunch with a local family, this trip really had it all. Whilst it was a full-on, busy tour, I still felt relaxed and refreshed upon my return home, mainly due to the fact that everything in the tour had been so well organised and planned. A plan B was ready for when the trek deemed not possible due to the rain and Roshan our tour leader took everything in his stride and made the guiding of the trip seem effortless.
