We had a wonderful time in South America. Daniel and the company have arranged a great itinerary. All the arrangements including transportation, tourist guides, hotel, meals are wonderful.

We have a few proposals in our preparation for a group of 10. Latin Discoveries gave us a very complete proposal with adequate info to decide. Despite the usual scenery proposal, the hotels proposed are very good and immediately win our heart. Not to mention is the price really meet our expectations. Daniel who is our main contact sent us reply very promptly and solved all our queries. We have a lot of question marks in our mind when the journey began as South America is a complete strange land to us. As soon as our first guy and drive-through, the whole journey become a very pleasant experience. They’re all professional, enthusiastic and helpful, cars are always on time, clean and safe. We will highly recommend Latin Discoveries to anyone who want to be well taken care of in their South America traveling. Chris

Daniela and Felipe at Latin Discoveries created our 2 week+ boy's (actually all 8 of us are over 65) trip tour across South America thru Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile from the moment we arrived in Buenos Aires to our departure from Santiago, Chile. Although I spoke no Spanish and had very little knowledge of the three countries, thru emails, texts, and video calls, Daniela, who planned the Argentina and Uruguay part of the trip and was my main contact at Latin Discoveries and Felipe, who planned the Chilean part, very clearly communicated various ideas of places to go, tours to take, what areas and hotels to stay in, wineries to visit, and restaurants to dine at. We would then look at their ideas through the internet, then comment back to them, and after a few iterations we together came up with a final itinerary. Through this process, they both were tremendously patient and very helpful.
This itinerary included all the necessary planning and coordination for the eight of us driving ourselves in one large van, completely across Argentina with stops in Cordoba and Mendoza. While in Buenos Aires, Montevideo, Mendoza, and Santiago, they arraigned the various private tours with a safe driver and English speaking tour guide for each city. All of the guides were absolutely great, very knowledgeable and lots of fun to be with. We were able to ask questions and converse with the guides so not only did we learn historical facts on the tours, but they helped us understand the current and past culture. So, a big shout out to Hernan, Beatriz, Soledad, and Benjamin. It’s fair to say that with each tour, we came away feeling that it was better than what we expected.
We were able to visit six wineries during the trip from small family owned wineries to Concha y Toro, one of the largest wineries in the world. One other thing that worked so well for us, is that we were able to make changes “on the fly” as the need and desire arose with each tour guide emphasizing that they were there to make the trip as great as possible for us.
We thought the cost of the tour, just under $5000 per person, to be very reasonable which included everything except our air fare to and from, our drinks and meals, tips to the drivers and tour guides, and personal purchases like souvenirs.
A few things to keep in mind are that the hotel rooms in South America are much smaller than we were used to…...a bit too tight for us since we were staying two-to-a-room. Also, we found that Latin Discoveries didn’t seem to have as big of an internet presence as we expected, making us initially uncertain until we started planning the trip, and now, would strongly recommend them.

In general, our group was happy with the planning and performance by the travel agency and local guides. However, we had an issue with the hotel in Rio: room had a strong mold odor and every day we will find a huge puddle of water by the entrance door of room due to a broken pipe inside wall. Every day we will bring this issue up to front desk and agency without any solution. We had to put up with this problem throughout our stay which was pretty uncomfortable.
