Hi Bernard
Peru For Less was always responsive, caring, warm, answered our many many questions patiently and thoroughly, provided us with good guidance, and helped us plan our trip. Everything they promised, they delivered. The trip was totally hassle free, safe, enjoyable, and a memorable experience...
Vinay and Sudha - Virginia, USA
The pulsating rhythms of samba and the bittersweet melodies of tango evoke the senses and inspire the imagination. On this tour, you will visit two distinct countries united by the spectacular Iguazu Falls. The sheer force and overwhelming expanse of the falls has earned the name Devil’s Throat, for the point where 14 falls converge to create a 100m (330ft) cascade that pounds the water below, reflecting a perpetual rainbow.
The image of Rio de Janeiro as sensuous and exuberant is as fitting for the city as its inhabitants, the cheerful cariocas. In contrast, Buenos Aires, also know as “the Paris of South America”, is a city of European-style and nostalgic grandeur, where cafes fill with lively discussion and a stroll through the streets may be a chance to see a couple dancing the timeless tango. For anyone visiting South America, these emblematic destinations of cultural, man-made and natural wealth should not be missed.

| Gaucho Party at a Typical Ranch (Wed./ Fri./ Sat./ Sun.): | |||||||||||||||||||||
When the Spanish arrived in Argentina, they found an immense area of tall coarse grass, extending for hundreds and hundreds of miles. The cattle and horses they brought with them were soon put to roam wild and over time they transformed the native Indian way of life. The Spanish replaced the natural vegetation with European grass and built huge "estancias" (ranches) in their homeland style. It is in these estancias that the romantic world of the gaucho was born, the traditional horsemen of the Pampas. This full day excursion will take you to the Pampas countryside, and provide you with a unique opportunity to experience the gaucho lifestyle, its music, dances, games and cuisine. The exhibition is held in a former estancia where you will be served a typical "asado criollo" (barbeque) while a folkloric show featuring music, dances and gaucho skills is demonstrated. After the show, those interested in horseback riding can take a ride around the estancia.
