  • Visas: Most countries in South America offer visa-free entry for tourists from many nations. Check the requirements for your specific nationality.

Getting There and Around

  • Flights: Fly into major cities like Lima, Santiago, Buenos Aires, or Rio de Janeiro, and then connect to other destinations.
  • Buses: An affordable and convenient way to travel between cities, but journeys can be long and uncomfortable.
  • Trains: Limited but scenic rail lines connect some major cities.

  • Footwear: Bring comfortable walking shoes and sandals for exploring cities and beaches.
  • Toiletries: Pack essential toiletries, but consider purchasing larger sizes upon arrival to save space.
  • Electronics: Bring your camera, phone, and other essentials, but keep them secure and backed up.

  • Bargaining: Market prices are often negotiable, but be respectful and don't be afraid to walk away.
  • Tipping: Tipping is customary in restaurants and for services like taxis and tours.
  • Safety precautions: Keep valuables hidden, avoid flashing large amounts of cash, and be aware of your surroundings.
