Patagonia Overland between Santi... (JSI)

From: $6700 + Kitty

Overview

82 days between Cusco and Santiago or vice versa...

Imagine overlanding through the stunning Argentinian Lake District and taking a guided tour of Tierra del Fuego. Moving on to explore the cosmopolitan Buenos Aires, the coolest city in South America, and travelling back up to Brazil to discover the unbelievable Iguazu Falls.    

Most people who overland through Argentina and Brazil will travel along the stunning routes between Buenos Aires and Rio. There is so much to see through this region, the two cities themselves, the Emerald Coast, the Pantanal and more.    

But now for the very best bit and for something of a first: Dragoman has pioneered the route across the Amazon Jungle between Rio and Cusco. Our new exploratory route cuts straight through the heart of Brazil's Amazon Jungle, crossing into the jungles of Peru and then climbing up the mighty Andes and onto the city of Cusco.
