The leg kicks off in the high energy capital of Colombia. October is a fantastic time to explore the colorful street art of La Candelaria or take a private tour of the Gold Museum before the evening’s festivities. Always remember, while the world might feel heavy, in Colombia,“Life Goes On” – lush cloud forests or colorful Cartagena are just a short flight away!
If we were to ask, “what is your dream?” perhaps you’d respond, coastal sunsets over the Pacific. Lima in October is where you want to be. As the summer crowds fade, its the perfect time to experience Lima’s vibrant culinary scene, securing reservations at Central or Maido. Then, take a stroll through the bohemian Barranco district, ending the day in perfect harmony with a plate of Peruvian ceviche. And with the lighter crowds this time of year, extending the trip Machu Picchu is an easy addition.
As the Andes backdrop begins to lose its heavy snow caps, Santiago’s nearby wine valleys like Maipo and Casablanca are in full bloom. It’s a peaceful shoulder-season window for private tastings and cycling through the vineyards, as well as avoiding the crowds in Patagonia, the Atacama desert, and Easter Island. You’ll feel like you have “Permission to Dance” through the cobblestone streets of Lastarria after a day of Chilean Sauvignon Blanc, a perfect pregame for an epic performance.

The tour concludes in the high-octane heart of Brazil, where the energy is always electric. São Paulo’s world-class museums and the lush Ibirapuera Park provide a sophisticated urban escape during this breezy spring month. It’s a grand finale where the city’s vibrant nightlife will leave you feeling like you’ve found your own “Mikrokosmos” in the Southern Hemisphere. If big cities aren’t your style, grab a nonstop flight to Rio de Janeiro, Iguazu Falls, the Pantanal or the Amazon.
“Exeter Latin America and Joe Sandillo were great in planning our travels. We were in Chile for three weeks and had six inland flights. They organized all our hotels and flights and everything went very smooth. They had given us great advice on where to stay, and guides they arranged for us also were fantastic.”
