Brazil, Argentina, Chile:
The Gaucho Adventure
(Chile, Argentina, Brazil) (DRG) - 30 days

The Gauchos are the Argentinian cowboys who farm the vast ranches or estancias of Argentina and on this trip we will ride, eat, and drink with them.Tick here if you enjoy culture, sun soaked beaches, skiing, beautiful mountain scenery and have longed to see some of the world's most impressive marine wildlife. Rio and Buenos Aires provide the culture; Brazil, the sun kissed beaches at Rio and on the Emerald Coast; the Chilean and Argentine Lake District provide the skiing. For marine wildlife, the Valdez Peninsular and Punta Tombo Nat. Park in Argentina are unbeatable. During the winter months, Wright and Killer whales migrate to the area. But for sheer impression, nothing quite touches the Iguassu Falls.
