Here’s a terrific vacation
destination that we were now able to get a very good
rate on that will take us to these two great cosmopolitan cities. We’ll start
off in Santiago, Chile for 4 nights where we
will enjoy a diverse choice of tours ranging from taking walks
along the Paseo Ahumada, where there are many street stalls
selling trinkets and surrounded by Colonial buildings where
the place is full of street painters and musicians who perform all
sorts of concerts on the stage. Climbing up the exuberantly
landscaped Santa Lucía hill - via a maze of swirling stairways,
turrets and fountains - is an essential part of the
Santiago experience. Your reward
is sweeping views over the city. The narrow streets and
village-like atmosphere of Bellavista, the capital’s arty,
bohemian quarter, make for a great wander.
We’ll set up wine tasting tours and there are many excellent
beaches
about
an hour and a half’s bus ride away.
Then, we’ll fly just 2 hours to Buenos Aires for another 4 nights.
This complex, energetic, and
seductive port city is considered “The Pearl” of South America.
Buenos Aires has an intense cultural life where tango, long coffee klatches and
football (soccer) are essential elements in its people daily
lives. Portenos, as the
multinational people of
Buenos Aires are known, possess an elaborate and rich cultural
identity. They value their European heritage highly—Italian
and German names outnumber Spanish, and the lifestyle and
architecture are markedly more European than any other in
South America.
We’ll enjoy fine dining, good wines and impressive entertainment
on our journey. Buenos Aires is never more alive than it is at
night. It is what you’d expect from a city that invented tango.
Avenues come alive with people on their way to restaurants and
theaters.
We’ll visit some of the many
interesting museums, take walking and bicycling tours
and enjoy one-day bus tours to some of the many nearby
interesting towns. Another tour will take us
to La Boca with it’s tin houses that are painted a rainbow of
colors, and muralists have turned the district’s side-streets into
avenues of color. This will really be a wonderful trip that
you’re not going to want to miss. Our
group rate for the 8-nights, airfare, 2 city tours and daily
breakfast will be just $1,785. Remember, our dollar is very
strong in these countries so all your dining and entertainment
will be very cheap. With 3.6 Argentine Pesos to a dollar you will
pay less than $5 for a steak dinner! So get on board for
this great trip and get ready to live like a king!
