Visiting family isn't the only form of travel for the holiday season.
Try mixing it up this year and pack your bags to take the family (or ride solo) on a getaway trip. After all, it is the most wonderful time of year and what better way to celebrate (and skip out on the cold) than to explore a new adventure? Especially to South America!
Travel Planners International examined the top locations to check out in South American this holiday season. Here are the host agency's findings:
Buenos Aires, Argentina
A beautiful destination, some might describe it as "a European city but with a Latin twist." Everything from the food, the art, and the historic sites are all must do's in the capital city of Argentina.
The Amazon in Brazil
This location may take some advanced planning but it will be worth your while. Experience life like a local and get in touch with nature, travel the river and watch the movie like landscape come to life. Plus, with so many new and different foods to try, what could be better?
