Sample the unique cultures of South America during this thrilling Panorama vacation! Begin in Manaus, Brazil, where a guided tour shows you the sights. Then, enjoy a "Meeting of the Waters" cruise and arrive at your jungle lodge in the Amazonian rainforest. Here visit a native Amazon village, discover flora and fauna on naturalist guided walks and boat rides, fish for piranhas, and visit the Monkey Jungle Reserve! Next, fly to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, for a 4-night stay, and take in the sights of South America's largest city, including Sugar Loaf Mountain, Corcovado Mountain, and the cathedral. Fly to Iguassu Falls to see the magnificent waterfalls and tropical foliage, then fly to Buenos Aires, capital of Argentina. During your 4-night stay, visit the Metropolitan Cathedral and the Cemetery of the Recoleta, plus enjoy a day trip to Uruguay where you sail on a catamaran to Colonia de Sacramento. After a day of relaxing in Buenos Aires, fly to Bariloche in Patagonia and take a chairlift ride to Cerro Campanario. Your lake crossing journey then takes you on a boat cruise across Lago Nahuel Huapi, a drive through the forests and peaks of the Andes Mountains, a catamaran cruise across Lago Todos los Santos, and a picture stop at the Petrohue Rapids before reaching Puerto Varas, Chile. Stop in Puerto Montt en route to Santiago, where you visit San Cristobal Hill and the 18th-century cathedral. A day at leisure in the "Pearl of the Pacific" is perfect for last-minute shopping or additional discoveries on your own.
