South America

An intimate small-group journey through Peru's Sacred Valley to Machu Picchu, with expert historians, luxury rail and Lima's celebrated cuisine.

Charter a private yacht through the Galápagos — snorkel with sea lions, walk among giant tortoises and explore the islands entirely on your own schedule with a private naturalist.

The dramatic ends of the earth — the granite towers of Torres del Paine and the colossal Perito Moreno glacier, explored from design-led wilderness lodges.

Vibrant Rio de Janeiro, the thundering falls of Iguazú and a luxury Amazon riverboat — Brazil's greatest icons in one seamless journey.

Following our hallmark formula of adventure by day and luxury by night, our guides reveal a vast frontier of mountains, glaciers, fjords, forests, grasslands and lakes while opening the doors to the region’s finest hotels, eco-lodges and resorts. From viewing Perito Moreno Glacier up close and horseback riding in Puerto Natales to cruising the Beagle Channel and spotting condors in Torres del Paine National Park, this adventure is as active or relaxing as you like.

Delve deep into Peru on a physically engaging adventure that features a challenging five-day round-trip trek to remote and isolated Choquequirao, known as the “Sister City of Machu Picchu” for its shared heritage with the famous Incan citadel. Also hike the last segment of the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu and discover the Sacred Valley from a refreshing point of view, while biking and hiking through its rugged landscapes.

Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley hog most of the attention, but Peru’s northern reaches take visitors even further back in time in their thrilling collision of ancient civilizations and natural beauty—without the crowds of the country’s better-known regions. Take the coastal route from the city of Trujillo, picking up the trail of pre-Inca civilizations like the Moche, Chimu, and Chachapoya through millennia-old architecture, excavation sites, and museums. After a brief immersion in the contemporary bustle of Lima, dive into the wonders of the Amazon, traveling through thick swathes of cloud forest along tributaries of the Amazon River. There, alongside breathtakingly diverse wildlife, you’ll connect with modern-day Indigenous communities while also encountering additional archaeological clues to the evolution of the species.

Covering 60 percent of the country, Peru’s Amazonian region is a magnet for wildlife lovers. Sleepy backwaters, lush islands and deep jungle make up the Pacaya-Samiria National Reserve, a place of exceptional beauty and biodiversity and Peru’s largest protected area at 8,000 square miles. From June to November is low-water season. Birders and wildlife enthusiasts will leap at the chance to venture into the habitat of some of the rarest and most iconic species on Earth, while visits to local communities of ribereños, or river people, provide insight into local culture and village life. In high-water season, from December to May, the Amazon River and its tributaries (the Marañón and Ucayali) flood, and most of the Pacaya-Samiria reserve is submerged. Though this may sound limiting, it also opens up a perspective on the entire landscape and riverscape that is nothing less than enchanting – and whenever you choose to visit, this untouched wilderness is alive with a seasonal rotation of sloths, monkeys, caimans, pink river dolphins, turtles, manatees and stunning birdlife.
