16-Day Package from Rio de Janeiro to Santiago
It may take two to Tango, but it only takes you to choreograph the perfect day on a Globus Independent tour in South America. See how Rio sizzles with Brazilian barbecue, beaches, and bustling nightlife, bringing you a little closer to heaven atop Corcovado Mountain where the iconic Christ the Redeemer statue stands watch. With the freedom to design your days and fill your nights with Latin flair that ignites your independent spirit, you’ll be swaying to the samba in no time! Go chasing waterfalls in Iguassu National Park, where thunderous cascades plummet 300 feet into Devil’s Throat Canyon. On to Buenos Aires, bursting at the seams with bold buildings, European energy, and bustling boulevards. Walk down the world’s widest avenue where the Colon Theater and Plaza de Mayo burst onto the scene.

Visit the Recoleta Cemetery, the final resting place of Argentina’s legendary First Lady, Evita Perón. Later, attend a lively Tango show performed with the passion of Argentine culture. Spend some free time on the Tigre River or horse around with gauchos on an Argentinian estancia. On to Santiago, brimming with art galleries, irresistible eateries, and electrifying nightlife perfectly poised between the snow-capped Andes and the Chilean coastline. Walk through the historic streets to trace the city’s bold history and legendary landmarks in the heart of its colonial core. Enjoy free time to explore the legendary Chilean wine country, or the captivating coastal cities of Viña del Mar and Valparaiso.
