South America Travel Feature Writer: Karin-Marijke Vis

Welcome to South America, a potpourri of cultures and traditions. It stretches from the Caribbean feel in French Guiana, Suriname and Guyana to the glaciers in Chile and the vast plains of Patagonia. Enjoy horseback riding in Argentina or surfing in Colombia; marvel while whale watching and stare in wonder at flamingos in Bolivia or the rich animal life of the Galápos Islands in Ecuador.

Visit colonial towns in Uruguay and Venezuela; retrace the Nazca lines in Peru and wander among the Jesuit missions in Paraguay. Check out churches in Buenos Aires or take samba dancing lessons in Rio de Janeiro.

Backpack your way around or cruise the waters. Travel with kids on the well-travelled paths, or lose your way and discover hidden corners of this exciting continent.
