9 DAYS

FROM RIO DE JANEIRO TO BUENOS AIRES They say this is the time in life to stop and smell the roses. How boring. We think this is the time in life to clench a rose between your teeth and slink across a Buenos Aires dance floor. Or soar above fragrant and colorful orchids on a rainforest canopy tour. Or inhale the distinct bouquet of a Chilean cabernet, bottled by none other than you.

Yes, it’s your time. But our version of touring is not the usual. It’s rum and rumba, rivers and rainforests, ranchos and ruins, Rio and revelry. And they’re all waiting for you, and your I’m-not-slowing-down-spirit, on a Globus journey to South America.
