South America Tour: 5 Countries in 18 Days

Day 1: Arrival in Rio de Janeiro, Welcome to Brazil

The 18 day South America tour begins with Rio de Janeiro tours. You arrive and we meet you and take you to the hotel. If you arrive during the day, you will already see the green hills, rocky mountains, palm trees on both sides of the road, and beautiful bays on the way from the airport. In the evening, a necklace of lights comes on across the slopes around the city: these are the favelas, the densely populated hillside neighborhoods. After check-in, you can walk to the ocean. Rio de Janeiro means Copacabana beach and Ipanema beach, along which promenades with the characteristic black and white mosaic stretch. You hear the sound of the surf, the salty sea air blows in your face, and cafes open until late serve cold coconut water.

Day 2: Rio de Janeiro, Corcovado Mountain and Christ the Redeemer

After breakfast you meet your English-speaking guide in the hotel lobby and head to Christ the Redeemer on Corcovado Mountain (4 hours). At the station you board an open eco-friendly train and travel through the jungle. Tijuca National Park surrounds the road on both sides. At the top of Corcovado, at 710 meters above sea level, stands the symbol of Rio, the 38-meter Christ the Redeemer statue, erected in 1931. From the viewing platform a breathtaking panorama opens up: the bridge to Niteroi, Guanabara Bay, the Botanical Garden, the world's largest stadium Maracana, Sugarloaf Mountain, and much more.

Day 3: Rio de Janeiro, Sugarloaf Mountain and Historic Center

Today you head to the Sugarloaf Mountain excursion and a city tour (4 hours) with your guide. First you drive to Praia Vermelha, the scenic Red Beach. From there you take the cable car up the mountain. The first stop is on Urka Hill, with a wide viewing platform and good restaurants and cafes. From Sugarloaf a stunning view opens over Rio, Copacabana beach, the bay, the surrounding mountains, the ocean islands, the bridge to Niteroi, and the Christ the Redeemer statue. Then you head to the central districts of old Rio to admire old churches, monasteries, the main Cathedral, and colonial-era buildings.

Day 4: Rio de Janeiro to Foz do Iguacu

After breakfast at the hotel, transfer to the airport and flight to Foz do Iguacu. You are heading to the unimaginable Iguazu Falls tours, a sight of Brazil and Argentina sitting in a nature park on the border of the two countries. 275 streams crash into gorges with a roar, leaving a feeling of power and the raw force of nature. When you pack for the waterfalls, bring a raincoat and protective covers for your electronics. Comfortable non-slip shoes are also important. On arrival a driver meets you and takes you to the hotel.

Day 5: Foz do Iguacu, Exploring the Brazilian Side

After breakfast you head with your guide to the Brazilian side of the Iguazu Falls both sides experience. The paths run along the cascades and one after another views of the powerful water streams falling into the Devil's Throat gorge open up. 275 powerful streams fall from 60 to 80 meters high. The name means Big Water in the Guarani language. From the platforms you see the contrast between the slow flow above the falls and the churning streams below. The air is full of moisture and rainbows often appear over the gorge. A breathtaking sight you could watch for hours.

Optional Bird Park (USD 50 per person): next to Iguazu National Park. You walk along paths through dense tropical greenery and enter large open enclosures where birds fly freely over your heads and walk right beside you. Toucans, parrots, birds of unusual colors, all in humid forest air smelling of leaves and soil.
Optional Macuco Safari (USD 130 per person): first you drive about 3 km through the jungle in an open jeep under the calls of birds and insects. Your guide tells you about the park plants, birds, and animals. Then a short path leads to the bank of the Iguazu River and you get into a motorboat going almost right up to the waterfalls. A cloud of water dust hangs in the air, spray flies, and rainbows appear in the sunlight. Clothes quickly get wet, the noise of the water drowns out voices, and the power of the streams falling right beside you takes your breath away.

Day 6: Iguazu Falls Argentine Side and Fly to Buenos Aires

After breakfast you head with your guide to the Argentine side of the falls. Crossing the Tancredo Neves bridge you cross the Iguazu River and enter Iguazu National Park in Argentina. On this side the routes pass very close to the water: walkways lead sometimes over the streams, sometimes along the churning cascades. From the platforms you see how the waterfall raises clouds of spray crashing into the Devil's Throat. You can come almost within touching distance and feel with your whole body how the ground vibrates under the force of the water. The roar pushes out all thoughts and only wonder and the power of the elements remain. After the excursion, transfer to the airport and flight to Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina. Transfer from the airport to the hotel.

Day 7: Buenos Aires, City Tour and Passionate Tango Show

After breakfast, a city tour (3 hours) with your guide. You get to know the main neighborhoods of Buenos Aires tours, the sights, and the diverse architecture.

The modern center sits alongside colonial quarters, and the mountain line is always visible against the streets. On arrival a driver meets you and takes you to the hotel.

You see the Sol de Manana geysers shooting jets of boiling water and thermal mud with a rumble. The next stop is the red lake Laguna Colorada at 4,400 meters above sea level. This is home to a rare species, James's flamingo. By evening you settle into a hotel in the middle of a desert plateau, simple surroundings that feel like an expedition camp, isolated and cut off from the world.

Day 12: Uyuni Salt Flats, Train Cemetery and Cactus Island

Right after breakfast you head to a chain of high-altitude lagoons: Onda, Hiar-Kota, Hedionda, and Canapa, stopping at a viewpoint by the active Olague volcano.

Finally you reach the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia, the largest salt flat on Earth, on a high-altitude plateau at 3,650 meters. In the dry season it is a salt desert of 11,000 square kilometers with reserves of around 10 billion tons. In the rainy season it becomes a mirror to the horizon.

Then you head to the Moon Valley, a unique place near La Paz. Among the dry slopes, pale stone formations of sand, rock, and salt rise up, shaped by water and wind over thousands of years. The silence of the valley and the strange shapes create a feeling of a distant, almost unreal world.

Day 14: La Paz, Tiwanaku Ruins and Transfer to Lake Titicaca (Puno)

It was built in 1450 from enormous limestone blocks surrounded by jungle and abandoned a century later. Only in 1911 did American archaeologist Hiram Bingham find it.

REVIEW №7- Kok

Buenas noches Viera. Antes que me comiense la semana de trabajo quisiera agradecerle por un tremendo tour que tume por Pero. Su paquete de tours fue muy personalisado para mis expectativas. Cada dia de la itinerario se cumplio como decrito. No tengo palabras para agradecer a todos los quías y taxístas que se me han asignado. Todos hicieron un buen trabajo y siempre a la hora indicada. Para una persona viajando solo eso trae tranquilidad. Los lugares que he visidado eran todos muy impresionantes. Con Cusco y los tours correspondientes los mas destacados. Me quede muy impresionado de la cultura Inca y la visita al Machu Picchu era una experiencia espiritual elevadora. El viaje de Arequipa a Nasca de 10 horas por bus era agotador. Llegue dormido a Nasca y me tuvieron que departar. Comprendo que para poder ver a el condor y también volar sobra el desierto de Nasca este viaje fue la mejor opción.
Los hoteles fueron perfectos. Mi favorita fue lq Britania Crystal Miraflores. Yo le daría 4.5 *. Yo recomendaria este tour a qualquiera que quira hacer el tour como yo lo hice. Espero que con las conecciones aerias directas proramadas entre Curacao i Lima ( comensando el fin de año) y con el nuevo aeropuerto international en Cusco en algunos años el turismo desde Curacao sea mas grande.
Una vez mas mil gracias por su atención personal para realizar mi sueno.
Mandare este mensaje también para Gina, mi contacto de A1 Travel para que sepa ella también que bien me la pase. Vere si puedo dar comentarios en TripAdvisor. ❤️

REVIEW №8- Marina Ryzhuk

Pavel, good afternoon!
My name is Marina Ryzhuk. A few weeks ago, our VIP group from St. Petersburg visited Rio with you. I believe you remember them well.
I’d like to thank you for your excellent work with our rather demanding guests. After the trip, they spoke very highly of your services. Our particularly important gentlemen especially appreciated your personal approach — you managed to find a special way to connect with them.
Through your tours, they were able to truly feel the city, which is absolutely priceless on such trips.
Thank you!

REVIEW №9- Eduard and Larisa

Dasha, good afternoon! The clients came back very satisfied. Absolutely thrilled with both the country and the service of Ada Tours.

REVIEW №10- Chubar

Anna, thank you very much on behalf of our tourists, the Chubar family, who visited in February.
They praised your excellent and well-organized work and were very pleased!
They said everything was as precise as with the Germans :)

REVIEW №11- Mikhail and Elena Leksikov

Good afternoon, we were in Rio de Janeiro March 15–17, 2020. Not for long, but it was very full of experiences.
The driver who met us at the airport, to our joy, spoke English and even a little Russian. He pointed out where we could walk and eat.
The next day we met Eleonora, a GUIDE and a Person with a capital P. We were lucky to visit Corcovado and see Brazil’s main symbol. Unfortunately, we couldn’t make it to Sugarloaf Mountain due to the coronavirus quarantine.
Instead of the canceled excursion, Eleonora gave us an impromptu city tour. She tells stories in an interesting way, knows a lot, but doesn’t overwhelm with facts, shows where the best photo spots are, and even took pictures herself. Thanks to her, we managed to get coffee and souvenirs—it turned out not so easy to find what we wanted.
She was very caring and concerned for us—even after we went to Búzios, she kept checking how we were, suggesting where to go and what to see and buy.

A very close-knit, friendly team, always ready to help.

REVIEW №12- Nikita, Saga Tour Operator

Good afternoon, Alexandra!
Thank you very much for the organization and support.
The tourist was very happy and said everything was top-notch :)
Paraty is definitely a place to recommend—it leaves no one indifferent. Porto Real is probably in the best spot on that coast.

Thank you!
Wishing you success in everything!

REVIEW №13- Natalia

Good morning, Anya! Thank you for organizing the tour for the Efimov family, for your human touch and for always being available 24/7 to help—this is priceless!

REVIEW №14- Nassir and Sholpan

Alexandra!
Our clients have returned, very satisfied.
They left a special review about the guide in Quito:
In Quito, we had a wonderful guide named David.
During our three-day visit to Quito, your guide David was with us. He made our stay in Quito rich, interesting, and unforgettable. Not only does he know a lot about the city, the country, and its nature, he is also a truly interesting person himself. Our three days were filled with conversations about everything. Our knowledge of Ecuador is now practically encyclopedic—we learned so much. And the most important part was that it all happened through engaging discussions.
We’d like to highlight his punctuality, his thoughtfulness, and his attention to detail. His advice on restaurants and places to walk during our free time was invaluable. We’ve met many guides—this is the 103rd country we’ve visited. We don’t always get so lucky with a guide, but David was exceptional. Thank you to him and to all of you!!!

THANK YOU FOR THE EXCELLENT ORGANIZATION.

REVIEW №15- Elena and Evgeny

Good afternoon! The excursion was wonderful! A special thanks to the guide! What an amazing man—we haven’t seen someone treat an excursion with such responsibility in a long time.

Months of preparation, countless changes and additions – I know what it all cost us – but everything turned out perfectly. Thank you for your attention and patience.
For many tourists in the group – despite the number of countries they’ve already visited, practically the whole world – this trip became the best of them all!
That says a lot, and it was so nice to hear. I want to share this gratitude and pride in a job so well done with you!!!!

REVIEW №31- Adam M.

A poem dedicated to the Ada Tours guide!
In Rio, where sunlight meets golden skies,
Our guide Paulo greets us with kind, warm eyes.
He knows the whole city, where secrets lie deep,
And welcomes each guest with joy that’s sincere.
“Come on,” he says, “to Corcovado,
Christ calls you up to heaven’s shadow.
Then on to the beach, where waves beat the shore,
Copacabana invites us once more.”

Paulo will show us where samba resides,
Where Brazil’s true heartbeat endlessly thrives.
In favelas he sees not poverty, but life,
Where sparks of hope conquer struggle and strife.

With a smile, he leads us along every way,
Paulo’s our friend, our golden pathway.
A Brazilian guide, a master of wonder,
With him, Rio feels closer to heaven’s splendor.

This poem is from me, for you.
Author: Adam M.

REVIEW №33- Ekaterina Dumbravanu

Good afternoon, Alexandra.
I want to thank you for organizing our vacation.
Our guides were simply outstanding – top class.
Pavel knows so much about Brazil and Rio in particular. He’s very easy to talk to, communicates effortlessly with people, is always learning something new, and gladly shares his knowledge. An excellent guide and a wonderful person.
And Tiago – we spent two days with him. He’s amazing. Even after 18 years of work, he hasn’t lost the ability to genuinely admire the beauty of the waterfalls. He still takes photos like it’s the first time.
With your guides, it’s never boring! Thank you once again!!!

REVIEW №34- Tatyana Yakubova

Hello, Alexandra.
I am sending you the full version of the tourists’ feedback:
We are publishing our review after our trip through Argentina–Uruguay–Brazil with my wife. It is always a pleasure to share emotions when they are entirely positive! We want to thank the entire Ada Tours team who helped us organize the perfect journey. From the very idea of the trip to its completion, you were always in touch with us, tailoring excursions and building the itinerary based on our requests, while also giving valuable advice and making all necessary adjustments. Everything exceeded our already high expectations – the trip was very rich and exciting! We recommend this route to everyone, especially when its organization can be entrusted to professionals☺️
We would especially like to thank you for selecting wonderful guides and drivers. At every stage, everything went like clockwork – we never missed a single thing, and the drivers were always extremely polite and pleasant.
Our journey began in Buenos Aires with a city tour. We visited the main square – Plaza de Mayo, cathedrals, and saw key architectural monuments from the Spanish colonial period, as well as the modern financial center. We explored the vibrant and colorful La Boca district and the main city ports. We were lucky with the weather, and the tour was fascinating. The guide advised us to visit several additional places, and we chose the Recoleta Cemetery, where many of Argentina’s most famous figures are buried. After the tour, we asked to be dropped off near the entrance and bought tickets. The only issue we faced was that we couldn’t pay in cash, but other visitors kindly helped us with the payment. The cemetery left a strong impression on us – we would definitely recommend it as a must-visit.
In the evening, we went to a tango show that exceeded all expectations. We watched authentic Argentine tango performed to live music, enjoyed Argentine wine, and saw other artists showcasing traditional instruments. The show was incredible and allowed us to truly experience the local culture.
The next morning we traveled by ferry to Montevideo. The journey was very comfortable; we would only recommend bringing snacks and an extra layer of clothing, as despite the heat, the ferry was air-conditioned and quite cool inside. We loved the city itself – we managed to see all the main sights and stroll along the coast. Midway through the tour, a wonderful lunch was arranged for us, followed by a light meal at the hotel.
After Montevideo, we continued as planned to Patagonia, where we spent just under three days. This place amazed us – it’s like nowhere else on Earth. From our hotel, we could see the vast Lake Argentino with its turquoise waters (sometimes flamingos can be seen there, though unfortunately we didn’t). The scenery of the Patagonian steppe and mountains will remain in our hearts for a long time. We took an excursion to the Perito Moreno Glacier – a unique wonder, truly beyond words. Probably the most powerful impression of the whole trip came from this glacier and the national park. It’s something everyone should witness with their own eyes.
After our mini-journey in Patagonia, we went on to Iguassu Falls, viewing them from both the Argentine and Brazilian sides. The sight was utterly unique and magical! Jungle, soaring eagles, butterflies, monkeys, and an endless chain of waterfalls stretching beyond sight. The park’s trails are very well maintained, with rest areas to escape the heat and humidity, and facilities everywhere.
The final stop of our trip was Brazil’s tourist capital – Rio de Janeiro. We visited the Christ the Redeemer statue, with its breathtaking views of the city, then spent time on Copacabana Beach, enjoying the Atlantic Ocean.
Overall, our journey was amazing and very full! And most importantly – as comfortable as possible, considering how vast the geography of our route was. Thank you!
Once again, thank you!

Sincerely,
General Director
