We’ve added a more conspicuous link to SAE on all our South America pages.
Anyone planning to hike there is strongly advised to join. Cost is about US$50 / yr.
Planning to study Spanish? Raft the Amazon? Hike the Inca Trail? Work on an archaeological dig? Find volunteer work? Explore the Galapagos? Scuba dive? Climb Aconcagua? Kayak the Apurimac? Soak up sun on the beach? Drive or bicycle around the continent? Join an expedition? Or look for birds?
Whatever you want to do, South American Explorers can help with trip planning, member recommended guides and outfitters, discounts on lodging, schools, travel…and much more.
We are not a travel agency or a tour operator, rather, we specialize in assisting independent travelers and groups make the most of their experiences.
We are a non-profit organisation that provides personal help and attention to details backed up with nearly 30 years of experience. That’s how long we’ve been assisting scientists, researchers, students and others heading to South America. So, take some time to explore all our website has to offer and contact us today to see how we can help you!
