1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

South America is a continent of staggering diversity, spanning the Amazon rainforest, Andean mountain ranges, Atacama Desert, Patagonian glaciers, and thousands of kilometres of Atlantic and Pacific coastline. Travellers come for iconic landmarks like Machu Picchu in Peru, the Uyuni Salt Flats in Bolivia, the peaks of Torres del Paine in Chile, and the vibrant cities of Buenos Aires, Montevideo, and Rio de Janeiro. The continent is a magnet for hikers, wildlife enthusiasts, culture seekers, and nightlife lovers alike, with deep Indigenous, colonial, and Afro-Latin heritage woven throughout. Whether road-tripping through Patagonia, exploring the ruins of ancient civilisations, or dancing tango in Argentina, South America rewards adventurous and curious travellers in equal measure.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for South America (Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil) yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
