Antarctic cruise Dec’24 - once in a lifetime experience
Nick, one of the founders of this travel agency organised an unforgettable and once in a lifetime trip to Antarctic for me and my husband during Dec’24.
We first approached Nick during 2022 based on a friend’s recommendation and he curated the Antarctic cruise itinerary for Dec’22. Due to unfortunate family circumstances, we had to cancel this trip and Nick was so helpful in processing the refunds for us.
During Nov’24, we contacted Nick again, hoping to book such a trip last minute during December which was quite unusual based on the nature of this particular destination. Again Nick was so accommodating and managed to find us 2 slots on the Antarpply classic cruise.
Around this cruise, Nick curated an impeccable itinerary for us including days to explore the city centre and countryside of Buenos Aries as well as Ushuaia which is the port city where the cruise departs. The accommodations arranged by him at these different locations were all lovely with their own unique personalities and attractions, at a reasonable price point.
The highlight of this trip was definitely the Antarpply cruise to Antarctic, contributed by its passionate crew members who took such good care of us passengers throughout the 10-day cruise.
I can’t recommend enough this travel agency to anyone who is considering a trip to South Americas as I am sure that you will get an unforgettable experience at the price point you have determined.

Hi Ying,
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a few words about your experiences on your last trip to Antarctica with us, it is great to hear that the trip lived up to expectation...as you say, it was a long time coming in the end.
From what you detailed in your email to me, while the crossing of the Drake could have been clamer on the way home, you were well prepared for it and you now have really earned your passage to the white continent! :)
I was really pleased that we managed to get you over there at the right price and on the right ship and have passed on your feedback to the staff at Antarpply as they are, of course, the ones that make these trips as memorable as they are. We are just happy to be a part of that process and look forward to helping you in the future with any other travels to South America or Africa.
We all wish you a great 2025!
All the best,
Nick and the team @The South America Specialists
Look No Further
Nick put together an amazing 2 week adventure in Argentina for my husband and me. From my first inquiry, Nick was great with communication, learning about what type of trip we wanted and then delivering recommendations and options for us to choose from and making changes based on our feedback. We had a complicated itinerary seeing 4 areas of the country with 4 hotels, 4 internal flights, 5 organized tours, and airport drop offs and pickups in each location. Every aspect of the trip went off without a hitch. Every time we arrived at an airport, a driver was waiting for us. Every time we arrived at a hotel, the concierge had been contacted and confirmed our itinerary in that location. Our tours in each area were great as were the hotels that Nick recommended and booked for us, each of them very different and wonderful in their own unique way. I would highly recommend the South American Specialists and plan on using them again when we head to Chile in 2026.

Hi Jennifer,
Thank you so much for writing a few words about your recent trip to Argentina with us. As you say, there was a bit of moving around in your itinerary which, with Aerolineas being involved is never straight forward but it was great to hear that you had had such a good time and I have already passed on your feedback to the hotels and people involved.
It was a real pleasure to have been able to help you to plan this trip and look forward to helping you plan the next! :)
All the best,

A successful trip in Brazil
The lodges chosen were staffed by lovely, efficient people. The food was good. Our guides met us on time and were all lovely. The travelling time in country was a lot, however each destination was worth the time in this huge and lovely country. A carefully planned trip, that more than met our expectations.

Hi Fiona,
I hope you are well and thank you so much for taking the time to write a few words about your recent trip with us.
As we discovered, travel in Brazil is not always that simple and I appreciate the patience you both showed when we were getting you from Manaus back to Rio! I am really glad to hear that you enjoyed the properties we put together for you and, as always, I will be passing on your feedback to everyone involved as they make these journeys so memorable.
We look forward to helping you again in the future with any planned travels to South America or Africa and hope you have a great festive period.
All the best,

Fabulous vacation in Brazil
Nick planned a seamless vacation for us in Brazil. Every detail was covered and we dependably had someone meeting us ands sheparding us through every destination. Nick was always responsive to potential issues and to all questions throughout the trip. I highly recommend the South American Specialists for your next South Smerican or African vacation.

Hi Jodee,
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a few thoughts about your recent trip with us to Brazil. It was really great to hear that you had a good time in the jungle, Rio and Iguazu and we have passed on your feedback to the properties...as you say, Iguazu does struggle a bit for higher end properties when compared to the other destinations.
We look forward to hearing back from you in the future for any help with your next possible trip to South America or Africa.
All the best,

South American Specialists are the best!
South American Specialists have arranged tours for me and friends to Argentina, Chile, Peru and Colombia. They are simply THE BEST in the business. All of the trips were flawless from beginning to — accommodations, excursions, guides, restaurants, etc. They excel at both cultural and active trips and are very responsive to budgets.

Thanks for taking the time to write a few words about your recent trip with us to Peru! It has been a pleasure to have helped you over the years with your travel to South America...Chile, Argentina, Colombia and now Peru! It is quite a list :)
I was really pleased to hear that this trip was up the standards of the others and, as always, a lot of credit must go to our partners on the ground who help communicate any last minute changes and generally make sure you are happy as you go along.
We look forward to helping you plan some more South American (or African!) adventures in the future.

A well organised itinerary in Northern Argentina
A well organised itinerary in Northern Argentina that would have been difficult to organise ourselves. Very good hotels, and cross boarder car hire that I just didn’t think we could have done ourselves.

Hi Peter and Bridget,
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a few words about your trip with us to Argentina and Chile! It is great to hear that you had such a good time and, as you say, the two countries do make it very complex to try and take a car across a border!
It was a real pleasure to have helped you with your trip and we look forward to hearing from you again in the future should you need a hand with any other trips to South America or Africa in the future.

A pleasure to deal with these people…
A pleasure to deal with these people from beginning to end. The individuals we dealt with were helpful and responsive to our requirements and made eminently suitable suggestions for our consideration.
The whole 6 week trip through Argentina was stress-free and so easy. The planning was flawless. I can wholeheartedly recommend this company.

Hi Pamela,
Thank you so much for posting a few thoughts about your trip to Argentina...as you say, it was a pretty complex one in the end, so great that you got to spend some time visiting the areas around Salta and the Northwest. Not somewhere that we get to recommend to clients all that often but such an excellent area of the country!
It was great to hear that everything ran smoothly for your itinerary and, as always, a lot of the priase must go to our partners on the ground.
Keep well and we look forward to hearing from you again in the future should you need a hand with anywhere else in South America or if you would like to look at Africa.

Excellent service from The South America Specialists
We had a fabulous holiday in Argentina and Peru. The arrangements put in place for us by The South America Specialists were excellent. We were, without exception, met on time at airports and, subsequently, taken to airports in good time for our departures. All the hotels were either very good or excellent - no disappointments - and the excursions were terrific and led by very good guides.
The South America Specialists offered informed and helpful advice throughout the preparation of the trip, and everything came to fruition once we were in South America.

Good knowledge and quick to respond
Nick was very good at listening to what we liked and wanted to see in Chile, and helped us put together a fabulous trip. He tweaked some parts of it to better suit our budget, which meant that a couple of the hotels were a bit more basic than we would normally go for. This in a way added to the experience as they were located in amongst the locals. Looking back we would change a couple of sections a little bit and maybe not stick so tightly to the budget next time ! However, that is with the benefit of hindsight ! Overall a terrific 3 weeks.😊

Hi Angela,
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a few thoughts about your recent trip with us to Chile, it was really good to hear that you both had a good time.
As you say, the range of properties in Chile can vary across the price ranges but I am glad that, in the main, the compromises added to the trip rather than brought it down.
We hope you have a great 2024 and look forward to helping you with any future South America or Africa travel plans. :)

With a few vague ideas, we stumbled upon Nick by a chance internet search. Thank goodness we did! With infinite patience and expert knowledge, Nick put together a perfect itinerary for our trip understanding how we like to travel and explore new places. Even the most mundane and trivial question was answered promptly. The holiday exceeded all our (exceedingly high!) expectations, everything was taken care of before we even knew it.

Trip to Brazil
When trying to organise a once in a lifetime holiday to the Amazon and Pantanals in Brazil, I realised very quickly that I did not have the knowledge or expertise necessary to co-ordinate all the logistics of various flights, transfers etc. It was purely by chance that I found Nick using an internet search and I am so glad I did. Nick managed to translate our vague wishes into a magical, amazing holiday and we could not have done it without him. From the very first contact, he answered all our emails and phone calls promptly and was professional, knowledgeable, friendly and infinitely patient, even when he probably thought my queries were very trifling. I have no hesitation in recommending Nick and we will certainly use him again should we ever be lucky enough to be able to revisit South America.
