South America Tour Companies

My first time in South America traveling alone, I was lost between all the different options for the tours online. I came on UnuRaymi’s website by accident and wrote to them on WhatsApp. They were incredibly responsive and took the time to structure the perfect tour for me. Starting at Lima, all the way to Cusco, the rainbow mountain, the amazon jungle and Machu Picchu, I felt very well taken care of and I would recommend them to anyone trying to travel to Peru !

As a group of 5, we really had a fantastic time, the scenery was beautiful, the hike somewhat little difficult but we all manage. But the best of all, our tour guide Herbert was great he went beyond means to meet all what we need especially our safety. He's a great tour guide I wish that we can have him the whole time of out tour. Rainbow Mountain was magnificent, what a beautiful landscape. Lake Titikaka was a very chill place, the family we stayed at were beautiful family, mommy Rosa made sure that we are all comfy during our stay & well feed hahaha. Our hike to Santuario Pachamama was one of kind to watch sunset, it was really great experience. We wish we could stay longer but there is always a reason for us to come back.

I arrive 3 days early to go to the waterfalls and I didn't have a transportation to go to the hotel I had to go to the hotel by myself... And pay by my own pocket. I informed tour radar , I would like a transfer but when I arrive in Brazil I couldn't contact anyone...

Well coordinated, exceptional tour guides on every scheduled tour. I don’t mind paying extra for a wonderful lifetime memorable trip. Highly recommend to everyone

Excellent holiday! Very well organised - the team: Hannah, Lilly, Barbara, Wendy Penny, Sam- put a lot of effort into organising an excellent itinerary. Brilliant communication with the local teams on the ground, couple of minor hiccups out of their control (eg a local domestic flight cancelled with nothing till the next day), which they helped me deal with very efficiently and I felt very looked after throughout. Would happily use them again! Pro tips for future travellers: ignore the guide books, no one speaks English, get a good few Spanish sentences ready! Laundry - do at El calafate hotel - half the price of everywhere else! In puerto natales there is quite alot of street noise on the sea view room - I’m a good sleeper so it didn’t bother me at all but light sleepers might want a different room! Thanks very much team I will always be grateful!

My friend and I had a great time during our tour. From the time we were picked up from the airport in Buenos Aires and back to the airport in Rio, the prearranged tours were packed with the must-see spots in both cities but the best is the iguazu falls. We saw both sides (Argentina/Brazil) and it was awesome. The tour also has a relaxed schedule that we don’t feel drained at the end of the day. It was great too that there were free days so we had a choice to chill or just roam around the city. The tour company is very responsive to questions prior and during the tour. Thanks team for making our vacation memorable😘

Overall this was a great way to see highlights of several Peruvian historic sites. The groups were small and the guides were all knowledgeable.

Excellent organization of the tour , all hotels on great locations , amazing food, very enthusiastic, knowledgeable and supportive guides. We enjoyed this holiday very much and came back full of amazing impressions . We would recommend it without a hesitation.

Our holiday was great. We experienced so many wonderful animals, food and people. The accommodation was okay. The casa de Nelly was incredible as was the red booby hotel but the blue house was loud, smelled an awful lot like sewage, was uncomfortable and overall, unprepared. Our drivers were knowledgeable but often late picking us up. We did enjoy the freedom to roam and explore untied to a group.

Pretty good. Transport back to Campo Grande was a bit of a puzzle to me, but I did make it back.

A lot of beautiful sceneries to see. I only know English and don't know any Spanish. But i did not feel difficulties because of language barrier. All tour guides spoke in English. When i needed to take a tour train and tour bus, always someone picked me up at hotel, drove me to train station and bus station. Always someone picked me up at train station and bus station when i got off and sent me to my hotel. So i did not have opportunity to get lost. Tour guides were very friendly. Only one night i was arranged to stay in a villager's home to experience local life on a island. And there was no running water. That was kind of difficult. Now i much more appriciate that i have running cold and hot water at home. All hotel rooms were clean and comfortable.

The Jewels of Peru Tour was a great selection of seeing the amazing diversity that Peru has to offer. The country is so vast you would definitely miss out if you did not have the early wake up calls, because nothing is around the corner. If you are the kind of traveler that likes to maximize your time and fit as much in during your stay in a foreign country: regarding geodiversity, culture, food, people and sites. Then this trip is for you! PS. The guides are all awesome.

The day tours were great fun, especially the Tierra del Fuego one. We had Caro as a guide and she was very knowledgeable, at ease and fun. She really made the day wonderful.

The guide took the time to explain everything and was very knowledgeable when asked questions

Hi, my experience with Wanderful Holidays was great, The day of departure my flight was cancelled here in USA d/t bad weather, my mother flight departed from Peru, and she arrived that first day of the tour in Argentina , the local team was aware of my situation and they treated my mother with kindness and made her feel very comfortable with the tour, sincerely I thank them specially to Mrs Gisella (tour guide)and Mr Osvaldo (tour guide taxi driver). I arrived the next day and the local team found the way that I meet my mother during the city tour, this was so emotional, the rest of the tour day by day was running smooth , Iguazu was spectacular, we really enjoyed all the tour, the hotels were 4 start, in Brazil the hotel had view of the ocean and at night it was so relaxing to hear the waves , I really recommend this tour if you want to know about the Spanish culture of Argentina and Brazil...Thanks to every one that made possible this unforgettable tour.

tour radar and Wanderful Holidays were effortless to work with. Solid communication with fast responses

The trip was very well organized - great guides, with a lot of commitment. Nice hotels but unfortunately often very remote. We would prefer hotels in the center, which also allow us independent tours in the cities. Very flexible tour provider who responded quickly to unplanned tour changes due to illness. All in all, a highly recommended round trip through Bolivia that leaves nothing out.

The tour was well organized by Eurolatino (located in Germany) and its local travel operators. We had asked to add 2 days in Puerto Maldonado in the Peruvian Amazon region and skip the last day in Santiago de Chile, which was smoothly accomodated by Eurolatino. Although we never received any vouchers for hotels, tours or transfers, all local guides and drivers were always on time at the designated locations (except for a taxi that our local guide had ordered for the transfer from the pier to Copacabana after our return from Sun Island) and were fully briefed about our itinerary and the booked services. The local guides were very knowledgeable and accomodating to our needs. When our inbound flight from New York was delayed and we therefore arrived in Lima in the afternoon instead of the morning, our local guide managed to still show us the highlights of Lima in one hour instead of the half-day tour originally scheduled. Our local guide in Puno was aware that the Peruvian Migration Office in Yunguyo at the Bolivian border was still closed on the day of our visit (in late April 2023) after the protests in January and February of 2023 and had arranged for us to receive our exit stamp at the Migration Office in Puno harbor before transferring to the border. The only inconvenience was that we received the information about the pick-up time for our morning tour in San Pedro de Atacama at 3am on that morning. We had only tentatively booked the tours in San Pedro, as Javier Cordero of Eurolatino had suggested, and confirmed them 3 days before our arrival in San Pedro. Apparently that caused the schedule to be finalized in the last minute only. For anybody interested in a variety of landscapes and unique features I recommend booking the tours in San Pedro from the beginning. We liked all components of our trip. The big cities Lima, La Paz, Santiago de Chile, in some respects similar but in many respects different and distinct. The djungle tours in Puerto Maldonado. The Inca and colonial history in Cuzco, Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu. The overland tour to the Altiplano from Cuzco to La Paz. The Salt Flats at Uyuni and the lagoons and mountain deserts all the way to San Pedro de Atacama. With hindsight, the only change I would make is rather than carrying our overnight necessities (you can leave the rest of the baggage in the car) up the hill on Sun Island (a higher ascend than on Machu Picchu) for a (certainly very nice) sunset, I would opt to visit the Floating Islands near Puno and then transfer directly to La Paz. The only reason for not giving a 5 star rating is that after we had paid the full price for the trip Javier Cordero tried to sell us an upgrade for the visit to Puerto Maldonado, indicating that the originally booked accomodation was not available. Only after I reminded him that the German law on packaged travel services requires the seller of the travel package to provide the services as described in the itinerary or substantially similar services, he confirmed that the itinerary would be provided for the price paid. Except for this irritation he provided an excellent service.

Thank you. Everything went super well and as planned. The vacation was wonderful and our contacts Joseph and Alvero in Ecuador were fantastic.

Our guide Romulo was amazong, has a lot of knowledge and eager to share with us all the exciting details of the area, animals, plants and the culture. Our accomodation was vers clean, you don’ t really expect that in the forest but they clean the rooms every day. The food was excellent too! Couldn’t really say anything bad but prepare for the 10 hour long bus ride because it was not a pleasure to ride. the roads are really bad the driver was honking like every min.. but it was worth for the tours.

Be warned this is a bare bones tour where Oasis provides transportation, a way to group prepare food and money for that food when not in town (but no refrigeration and a tight budget), and minimal accomodations. You will normally stay in dorm rooms, often with people not traveling with you, or stay in gas station parking lots in provided tents, some that leaked. While included activities are included, they are few. Optional and other activities are the responsibility of the passengers to locate and book themselves. Accomodations aren't always in town. An example is where the description talks about Devil's Island and the European Spaceport, the only Oasis affordable accommodation in Kourou was a campground 20 km out of town in a town famous for few taxis. So it was next to impossible to visit both of them without 'leaving the truck' for several days and finding our own transportation and own more expensive accomodations. Which some of us did. We lucked out on Kaieteur Falls because we just happened to have the right number of passengers who wanted to go in order to charter a flight and one of the passengers was willing to organize it. But don't count on seeing the falls unless you 'leave the truck' for many days to catch a scheduled flight with enough passengers. In the future I will likely take busses and book my own accomodations to save money and see more. Or go on all inclusive tours. Some people really like the forced social interaction on a budget and some liked they didn't have to think about the transportation or accomodations, only the rest for a bit more cost than self travel. This trip is for them.

Was awesome!!! Ricardo was the best guide ever, always there when you need him, and helped us to organise stuff when we went off on our own. Highly recommend this tour
