GBLook for further for the best company to help you get the most out of South America Eric, listened to where I wanted to go and what I wanted to experience and set up all the arrangements which were professionally executed with loving care. After we arrived in Quito, we had 7 flights before we left Santiago to go back to the USA. Southern Exploration set them all up with transfers and hotels as well as an Amazon cruise, the lakes crossing in Patagonia from Argentina to Chile and finally excursions around Puerto Montt. Eric never tired of my endless questions and gladly changed things as requested. He even checked in about 1/2 way through our itinerary to see if all was well.The accounting staff is totally squared away, too.I can only say good things about the total operations of Southern Exploration. You will be very, very pleased if you use them. They are still the first class tour company my friends and I have used starting in 2008.

AUAbsolutely perfect from start to finish! Our Southern Explorations experience was flawless, quite simply. From Marisa tailoring our experience to exactly what we wanted, to the lovely guides we met in every town,to the well organised activities and locations. We could not fault a thing in Ecuador, Argentina, and Chile. Everything went like clockwork, and we did exactly what we wanted to do. Special mention must be made of Santiago, our marvellous guide in Quito who went above and beyond. Thank you to everyone for our marvellous holiday. I would not hesitate to recommend them!

AUGreat South american experience From The very first enquiry Marissa was a joy to deal with. Professional and knowledgeable, she put together a great package for us that resulted in a very memorable experience in South America. It all was faultless. Highly recommended.

CAAmazing Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu Experience My family of four that includes two teenagers had a wonderful time in the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu and Cusco. Southern Explorations coordinated everything perfectly allowing us to just have fun. Jose Luis was an incredible guide with an enormous depth and breadth of knowledge about Inca culture, architecture and the surrounding environment, flora, fauna as well as life in general in Peru. Really amazing once in a lifetime trip!!!!

GBSouthern Explorations planned an amazing trip Southern Explorations planned an amazing trip for us!! Jonathan listened to what we wanted and made an exceptional itinerary. Everything went flawlessly! Pickups were prompt, the service at all the lodges was terrific, the choice of locations and lodges were perfect! Our guides were great, particularly Victor at Arenal. We were on the go practically every minute, tiring, but exhilarating! Ziplining, canyoneering, snorkeling, hiking, rafting, what a variety! Nayara upgraded us to a Rainforest Pool Villa, gorgeous, we think the bathroom alone was about 350 square feet! Definitely have to be hearty and adventurous for this itinerary, but we were up to the challenge and did great! Second Southern Explorations trip and would use them again for sure!
