An exceptional trip, planned to perfection with expert local guides!

Thank you so much to Heather for making my trip perfect. The itinerary was expertly planned with everything sequenced in the right order, the logistics worked perfectly and the local guides were exceptional.

I cannot recommend Discover South America more highly!

I have returned from a 3 week tour with Discover South America organised by Heather.
It was an amazing trip so diverse, visiting so many interesting places, in Argentina, Patagonia,Chile and Ecuador . The trip finished with 5 days in the Galapagos Islands, which lived up to and beyond my expectations.
As a solo traveller, every transfer and trips organised, the local reps had excellent communications with timings. Heather and the local reps were always available if there was a problem.
I would not hesitate to book another holiday with Discover South America, they are a great company that pays attention to every detail of your holiday, with excellent knowledge.

Our itinerary was personalized and reflected our likes, lifestyle and interests. From meticulous planning to logistics everything was well thought and all details handled. Of course, the sites we saw were magnificent, but this company provided a worry free journey and we are grateful.

This was the second time we have used Discover South America. We used them the second time because of a great first time experience. The company as always was very professional, friendly and helpful. Their knowledge of South America was excellent, and with on the ground knowledge, and with a really good insight into places, hotels and what combinations and trips would work. The overall trip for us was amazing , with all the arrangements, transfers , hotels and boat and taxi transfers running seamlessly and with very friendly and engaging local guides who seemed genuinely proud of their jobs and their country. It was the first time we visited Brazil and would highly recommend Discover South America.

Highly recommend Heather and Discover South America. She listened to our dreams; proposed an imaginative and exciting itineracy; connected us with fabulous guides and activities; and provided us with the level of accommodation and travel that we were seeking. Across a 3 week trip all the logistics and connections worked perfectly and the advice we received to support us in our travels was incredibly helpful. The trip exceeded our expectations and has given us amazing experiences and memories. Our very grateful thanks to Heather for making that happen.

Utterly breath-taking trip to the Galapagos Islands

We went to the Galapagos in April 2024, it was certainly one of the most memorable trips we've ever been on.

It was planned by Heather with our input. Everything was taken on board - great attention to detail.

The accommodation was superb, the flights, transfers, activities and tour guides were both excellent and ran like clockwork - perfectly organised!

It blew all of our minds - Santa Cruz, San Cristobal and our favourite island Isabela.

I thoroughly recommend Discover South America - It was very special - thank you so much Heather :)

Heather from Discover South America organised our trip across Peru including the Inca Trail, with the exception of a retreat we booked ourselves. I can’t fault the hotels and Amazon lodge she chose and it was great to have all our connections and pick ups organised. It completely took the stress out of the journey so we could enjoy and take in the experience fully. Would recommend this service.

Heather gave us exceptional service and prompt advice every time. The itinerary was perfectly put together and adjusted as we decided on what to do during our 17 day tour of Peru. It was so reassuring to be met and welcomed everywhere. The local agents and private guides were excellent too. It made such a difference having English speaking guides as our Spanish was non-existant. Thank you so much Heather - it was a trip of a lifetime and all arrangements were seamlessly put together!!!

Heather put together a fantastic trip to Costa Rica for us, having listened very carefully to get the mix of nature, activities and relaxation just right at a very competitive price. All the arrangements worked like clockwork and the hotels were fabulous. Rafting the Rios Pacuare and staying at Rio Lodge were a highlight, but we also loved Tortuguero, ziplining in Monteverde and Rincon de la Vieja.

Heather at Discover South America helped me to curate the most amazing, once in a lifetime trip to Argentina, Chile and Uruguay over 7 weeks in February and March 2024. Everything was perfectly arranged from planning the itinerary and then once I was in LatAm everything was faultless' from the transfers, transport, hotels, trips and there was always someone on hand locally via whatsapp if I needed any help. I could not recommend Discover South America more highly.

Everything was great - Heather listened to our broad outline of a travel idea for my wife, two young children and me, and responded with a full itinerary, in budget, within a very short timeframe. All subsequent correspondence was thorough, timely, professional and courteous, before, during and after our trip.

I wouldn’t hesitate to fully recommend Heather to anyone wishing to travel to South America, and will definitely be the first port of call for us on any future trip.

Heather organised a 10 week holiday for us crossing through 5 countries in South America, supporting us moving every 3 - 4 days. Her planning and communication were perfect! We always had contact details of the local agents, were met at each stage on time and the holiday followed the agreed itinerary exactly. We were very impressed with how smoothly everything went and she did a fantastic job for us and we would definitely have her organising our holiday again.

We asked a number of travel companies to arrange a trip to Peru at pretty short notice.

Heather, from Discover South America, provided the best response quickly, good advice and an interesting and well-thought-out tour plan based on our vague needs. Then she adapted it with us so we had an exciting, tailored itinerary.

All the travel was booked and worked efficiently, the local tour guides were interesting and well-informed. No issues.

I recommend Discover South America.

Heather at DSA listened to what we wanted to do and then made very helpful suggestions around this.
All travel arrangements including hotels and trips were well organised and everything ran smoothly. The local guides were very interesting

I have been very impressed by the service we received from Heather at Discover South America from the the initial contact through to the post trip follow up. Throughout our preliminary planning phase a more standard itinerary was tweaked to fully customize to our needs such as exchanging a jeep tour in Rio to a provate car as a redhead, I wouldn't have been able to tolerate being exposed to the sun in an open topped vehicle. Start and end times were able to be adjusted as well as duration to enable me to schedule flights from Canada on cheaper travel days making this trip fully customizable.

Every element of our itinerary was delivered as promised and the guides in both Argentina and Brazil were knowledgeable and punctual. The transfers, whether shared shuttles or private taxis, allieviated us from any stress and responsibilities so we could just sit back and enjoy the views.

I would recommend using Heather and Discover South America to arrange your dream vacation in South America and will use her services again in the future.

Our mixed group of 7 - old and young- has just returned from a fabulous trip to Peru which Heather at DSA organised brilliantly for us. We chose her because she actually listened to our requirements and then created a varied trip to suit us. Her advice and suggestions were invaluable and her patience was much appreciated. In Peru, all the hotels, guides and activities were of the highest level and we enjoyed our trip enormously. I will be in touch for our next trip.

Fantastic holiday from start to end. I was travelling alone and was a little apprehensive - but as soon as I arrived I was so well looked after, everything was effortless and I could relax. Heather tailored the trip thoughtfully - great hotels and amazing experiences. A tailored holiday isn’t as costly as you might imagine. I highly recommend booking with Discover South America.

The tour was planned by us and tgen forwarded to few tour companies specialising in South American continent. Then we decided to go with the quotation Heather provided us.

Heather, managed to get us few flights on Latam airlines on special economy, which was great and also a private guide for us in a few places.
The pickup and the drop off from airports was great. All hotels were in very good locations.

The tour was better then expected.
Therefore, we give discover south America a 5* review.

Really well organised trip from start to finish. All aspects sorted and worked smoothly from air travel, transfers and hotels.
Excellent communication from first enquiry right through to the end of the trip. Heather was brilliant, so helpful and responsive to all our queries and any changes we wanted to make to the itinerary. We didn’t have to worry about anything.
Local tour guides were great, informative and helpful.
Antigua Caponata San Blas hotel in Cusco was a particularly wonderful hotel where staff went above and beyond to give us the best service.

This was my first solo trip . From my arrival at Lima airport, everything was organised, lifts from the airports all the tours there was some there to meet and greet me.
I enjoyed all my tours, especially The Inca Trail, this was a great achievement for me.It was physically and mentally challenging.
Heather, you planned my trip so well, I had acclimatised before I did the Inca Trial. Thank you, no altitude sickness.
I had a couple of hitches, Heather was so helpful in sorting these out. I felt that Heather was with me every step of my journey.
I would book every holiday through Discover South America, the most professional company I have used.
No hesitations at all in highly recommending Discover South America.
