Something for flora and fauna lovers

A rich and vibrant history

South America has much to teach you about its cultures, and visitors will be able to visit Inca sites such as Sacsayhuaman and Machu Picchu or head to Easter Island to explore the giant volcanic stone heads that mark a bygone culture that once called South America home.
