Small Group Tours to Central & South America

From the rainforests of Costa Rica to the peaks of the Torres del Paine; the technological feat of the Panama Canal to the stone terraces of Machu Picchu, our small group tours to Central and South America showcase wonders of both man and nature.

Colombia Rediscovered

Once and again a treasured destination, Colombia warmly welcomes visitors to experience its wealth of indigenous cultures, evocative Spanish Colonial heritage, lush landscapes, and Caribbean sun. Colombia is back – and our small group is poised to discover its many jewels, from Bogota and the Coffee Triangle to Medellin and Cartagena, with some hidden gems along the way.

Costa Rica's Natural Heritage

Tour membership limited to 12-18 guests
11 days from $3,181 total price from Miami

In this small Central American democracy kissed by nature, our small group discovers a nation’s wealth in four distinct regions, from cloud forest to rainforest; Central Valley to Pacific Coast. As Costa Rica presents its staggering display of biodiversity – pristine landscapes, unique microclimates, exotic flora and fauna – we enjoy a relaxed yet comprehensive exploration that celebrates Costa Rica’s wide-ranging natural resources.

Galapagos Explorer

10 days from $5,972 total price from Miami

A “living museum and showcase of evolution,” the Galapagos Islands inspire and instruct; their extraordinary wildlife capturing the imaginations of those fortunate enough to see them up close. Our distinctive excursion features the breadth of the islands’ flora, fauna, and marine life, as we learn from expert naturalists and stay in excellent lodgings.

Guatemala: Land of Eternal Spring

Tour membership limited to 12-24 guests
11 days from $2,784 total price from Houston, Miami

Once a center of Maya civilization, Guatemala today is like a living museum bridging past and present; indigenous cultures and colonial tradition. On our comprehensive yet unhurried small group tour we visit the amazing ruins at Tikal, small towns where indigenous culture thrives, beautiful Lake Atitlan, and magnificent colonial Antigua – revealing many treasures of this proud nation.

Machu Picchu to the Galapagos

They rank as two of South America’s greatest treasures, and a small group tour is the natural selection for both: the enigmatic ruins at Machu Picchu, where we overnight at an intimate on-site hotel; and the fascinating Galapagos Islands, Darwin’s “living laboratory,” for a four-night island-based adventure.

Along with visits to Buenos Aires and Santiago, we discover the remarkable diversity of South America.
