San Pedro de Atacama in Chile South America

Embark on an unforgettable excursion to the Cejar Lagoon.

Walk along the scenic boardwalks, passing flamingos and desert scenery until you reach the lagoon that is situated in the middle of the Atacama Salt Flat. Bathe and float in the salt-based turquoise lagoon, enjoying the exceptional views.

There are endless other ways to explore the Atacama Desert.

From a visit to Los Flamencos National Reserve to experiencing the sunset at the Valley of the Moon, we can arrange a variety of experiences during your stay.

Your adventure continues to Patagonia.

Take a flight to Santiago and onwards to El Calafate, where you will privately transfer to one of our partner properties for your three-night stay.

The Perito Moreno Glacier is undoubtedly one of the most spectacular sights in Patagonia.

On your excursion, you’ll witness one of the largest glaciers in the world, listening for cracking sounds of active glacial mass as it moves. You may even spot chunks of ice breaking off and falling into the grey waters of Lago Argentino.

After your unforgettable adventure in Patagonia, take a flight to Argentina’s lively capital of Buenos Aires.

You will stay in an OROKO partner property throughout your two-night stay.

Known as the “Paris of Latin America”, Buenos Aires is a fantastic city to explore.

We will arrange a private city tour to historic landmarks and through the chic districts of Recoleta and Palermo. We will also make restaurant reservations for you in some of our favourite parrillas.

After exploring Argentina’s highlights, it is time to get to know the wonderful city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Privately transfer to the airport and take a flight to Rio de Janeiro, where you will be privately transferred to your luxury hotel in Copacabana for your three-night stay.

There are endless ways to explore the city.

Allow us to arrange your guided tours including a private excursion to Corcovado and Tijuca Forest. Starting at Corcovado Hill, admire the world-famous statue of Christ the Redeemer as well as the incredible views of Rio de Janeiro and beyond.

We will recommend the best things to do and the best restaurants to dine in here.

A favourite of ours is Santa Teresa, a colourful hilltop neighbourhood filled with picturesque winding streets lined with elegant mansions, artists’ studios, cocktail bars and cosy restaurants with bay views.

Your adventure in South America comes to an end.

Privately transfer to the airport for your flight home. Arrive in Dublin.
