Wines & Wonders of South America – A Tasting Tour of Life, Landscape & Legend
16 Days | Wine valleys, iconic cities & natural wonders across Chile, Argentina & Brazil

Why I Chose This for You
There’s a richness to this journey that goes far beyond the wine — though the wine is extraordinary.
I chose this trip because it offers depth: in the people you meet, the landscapes you stand in, and the quiet joy of connection as you share stories over good food and full glasses. It’s a journey for travellers who want to feel the soul of a place — not just see it.
If you love culture, conversation, flavour and moments that linger long after you return home, this is one of those rare trips that truly gives you everything.
About this Trip
This is South America poured into a perfect glass — vibrant, colourful, complex, and utterly unforgettable. From the sun-washed vineyards of Chile and Argentina to the rhythm of Buenos Aires, the thunder of Iguazú Falls and the joy-filled streets of Rio de Janeiro, this journey is rich in flavour, feeling, and unforgettable moments.
But this trip is about more than wine. It’s about stories shared over long lunches, landscapes that take your breath away, and the deep satisfaction of travelling well — with everything thoughtfully arranged so you can simply savour each day.
Designed for curious, culturally-minded travellers, this small-group journey blends indulgent experiences with authentic encounters, offering connection without pressure and discovery without rush.
