This is an independent tour that takes you to the fascinating city of Buenos Aires and then on to the most exciting country in South America, Brazil.

Along the way you will visit the spectacular Iguassu Falls, from both the Argentinean and Brazilian side. Finally, why not add a few days in one of Brazil's beach resorts? One that we particularly like is Buzios with a scenic bay and delightful restaurants and cafes.
