Latin America and Polar specialists Chimu Adventures have announced the introduction of a brand new, inaugural Latin America & Antarctica Small Group Tours brochure. Featuring a wide range of escorted small group tours operated by Viva Expeditions, the programme is designed for the discerning traveller looking for authentic and unique experiences in some of the world’s most intriguing and exotic regions across Latin America that may be hard to visit independently, as well as featuring a range of charter voyages to Antarctica.
Flexibility and client choice are at the core of the program, with itineraries falling under two categories, Overland Expeditions and Discovery Tours, available to clients depending on their individual preferences, desires and travel style.
While all tours offer the perfect balance between organized sightseeing and free time for independent discovery, Overland Expeditions are unique road trips with a maximum of 16 travelers exploring both the remoter regions and must-see highlights of Latin America offering a fairly active, yet comfortable, affordable and stress-free way of traveling.
Discovery Tours are designed to introduce travelers to the highlights of Latin America using a mix of various modes of transport staying in tourist class hotels, rustic cabins, guest houses or hiking lodges and traveling in groups of a maximum of 20 travelers.
Both tour types are fully escorted and offer share options for single travelers.
