Tour Itinerary
This South America tour features three of the continent's most exciting cities—Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, and Santiago—along with two of the world's most spectacular attractions, Iguassu Falls and Easter Island. At a relaxed pace, you'll enjoy guided sightseeing in each city as well as free time in Rio to sip caipirinhas and visit the famous beaches, in Santiago to people-watch at a lovely café with the snowcapped Andes Mountains as your backdrop, and in Buenos Aires to take an optional excursion to a local estancia (ranch) or a Tango show with dinner. Your guided sightseeing tours include the cog railway in Rio de Janeiro that takes you 2,300 feet up to the summit of Corcovado Mountain to view the famous Christ the Redeemer statue and 360-degree views of the city; Recoleta Cemetery, burial site of Eva Perón, in Buenos Aires; and a visit to the 18th-century Cathedral in Santiago. A highlight of this South America tour is a visit to Iguassu Falls, where you'll experience the falls on both the Brazilian and Argentine sides. Hear the water’s thundering roar, be awed by the rainbows formed in the mist, and enjoy the ecological jungle train that takes you through the rainforest for unforgettable views. But that's not all…you’ll travel to Easter Island, the most remote inhabited island on Earth and the largest open-air museum with 400 moais, ruins, and temples. You’ll marvel at the large statues in various stages of completion, enjoy the second-oldest volcano on the island, visit the topknot-quarry where all the pukaos that were placed on top of the moais were made, and much more. From the vibrant cities to the scenic beauty, this vacation to South America will leave you with vacation memories you'll cherish for life. For savvy, value-minded travelers, it's the perfect vacation.

The tour guide supplied us with a 12 oz bottle of drinking water per day to drink and brush our teeth, etcetera. We were told that we should not drink the water in the countries we visited and to buy the required extra water at local stores. "The National Academies of Sciences is another organization that weighs in on the amount of water you should drink each day, stating that about 2.7 liters for women and 3.7 liters of water for men per day are about right. That would be about 5-6 bottles of water for women and 7-8 bottles for men." These amounts may be more than is required but we were quite active on our tours and more than a 12 oz bottle of drinking water was required. A few cases of bottled water to share with the group would not cost that much. We have taken many tours with Cosmos, Gate 1 and other operators and have always been encouraged to drink extra water and it was supplied for the asking on every bus tour. In addition we had paid for several tours offered by Cosmos and the tour guide canceled several of them with no suggestions for alternative tours and my wife and I were able to book tours for us (and several other of the group) with Viator. The sites were fantastic, particularly Iguazu Falls and Easter Island but the Cosmos firm and guide fell short.
