This tour takes you from the Caribbean island of Cuba via the must see sights of Colombia and the mountains of Ecuador, finishing in the Galapagos Islands. From Che Guevara to Narcos and the Amazon Rainforest, this trip is tied together by the vibrant and colourful Latin lifestyle.
Our trip starts in Old Havana, before we go off to the Bay of Pigs, the mausoleum of “Che”, where we not only see his final resting place, but the legendary train that he derailed, as well as take part in the celebrations of his life. We will see the best of Cuba and more special Che sights along the way.
Next we fly to Colombia, which might have had a chequered past, with landmines, and the remnants of the civil war and organized crime still very much omnipresent, but is slowly becoming one of the top destinations in the continent. We’ll be hitting up its best sights and going around, meeting people for whom past history is still very recent.
Then we explore extensively Ecuador, where we adventure deep into the Amazon by boat and experience close encounters with the incredibly unique wildlife as well as meeting and learning from the indigenous locals that will show us a trick or two on how to survive in the wilderness.
We visit the peak of Pichincha Volcano with an altitude of 4000 meters, discovering the UNESCO world heritage listed back streets of Quito on foot and climb to the top of the Virgin of El Panecillo Statue for breathtaking views of the capital below. We’ll even take up the opportunity to enjoy the nightlife like a local and cruise around Quito by evening in our very own Chivas with our personal DJ.
Finally, we visit the Galapagos Islands. Here this will be your once in a lifetime chance to explore the diverse marine life these islands behold and snorkel amongst turtles and friendly sea lions in the most pristine beautiful transparent waters Latin America has to offer.
