Tour Overview

Traveling all the way across the continent, we start by exploring beautiful Venezuela. Then we make our way through northern Brazil for an adventure crossing the equator and into the Amazon Jungle. We arrive in Rio de Janeiro, one of the liveliest towns in the world before visiting waterfalls, wetlands, marshlands, and through mountains and deserts, as we combine many of South America’s highlights on this nonstop adventure.

Optional Excursion
Inca Trail to Machu Picchu
The classic 4-day Inca Trail, also known as El Camino Inca is an optional excursion on the BXZA3 trip. We highly recommend adding this excursion to your trip.

The Incas were a highly organised civilisation and created many Inca paths throughout the Andes in a network they called Capaq Ñan. The most famous of all the paths is known simply as ‘the Inca Trail’, the royal route to the remnants of the breathtaking mountaintop city of Machu Picchu. Spread over 4 days, the spectacular 44 km Camino Inca crosses three stunning high passes and encounters many ancient archaeological sites, culminating at the citadel of Machu Picchu. There are few treks in the world that combine natural beauty, history and mystery with such an awe-inspiring final destination.

Note: we would need a copy of your passport at the time of booking.
