Places You’ll See

Highlights
- Spend three days at a working estancia (farm) in Uruguay, where you can spend your time getting involved in farm work, learning about gauchos, riding horses or simply relaxing in the sun.
- Stop in colourful Colonia del Sacramento, where vintage cars line the streets and an old drawbridge leads to the World Heritage-listed Old Quarter.
- Let loose and samba the night away in Rio de Janeiro – South America’s party capital. Arriving in this bustling metropolis is the perfect way to continue your South American adventure.
- You’ll have plenty of time to choose your own adventure at Ilha Grande with two full days on the island. So if hiking, boating, kayaking or lazing on a beach is your thing, we’ve got you covered.

- WPWilliam· December 9th, 2019Good variety of experiences and excellent guides.Trip date: November 2019
- Raymond· June 20th, 2018Lorenzo as guide in AR, UR and part of BR was superior. Natalie in BR was adequate but barely so. Accommodations, Travel and other logistics was as advertised and correctly described. The booking process/staff left something to be desired as it was not timely and questions were at best obtusely answered. I would (and am) entertaining using Intrepid again.Show moreIntrepid Travel commented on this reviewHi Raymond, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
