QUALITY ACCOMMODATION
You’ll get accommodation included for every night of your trip, and it’ll always be close to the action. When you’re not sleeping in comfy hotels, you’ll rest your head in lodges nestled in nature – like the plummeting Colca Canyon as condors soar overhead – or in a Special Stay located in the heart of the Amazon rainforest.
LOCAL TEAM
Professional and insightful, our team in Latin America are authentic locals who can’t wait to show you their backyard. Latin America can be a difficult region to travel if you’re a newer traveller or a non-native speaker, which is why we ensure our extensively trained team are all multi-lingual, genuine Latin locals, who have regional intel and stories and know the coolest cultural experiences around. We don’t just go local, we are local.
EAT LOCAL
From included regional breakfasts to unique experiences like an Afro-Caribbean cooking class in Colombia and unforgettable foodie Free-Time-Add-Ons like crafting your own chocolate from fresh cocoa, we always put food at the heart of your Latin American adventure. It’s all part of our Munch food philosophy.
FIND YOUR PEOPLE
You guys. You’re the main ingredient. Our trips are exclusively for 18-35s and are structured to help you find your people. No matter what you’re looking for in Latin America, you’ll find your people to learn with, eat with, adventure with or simply sip a cocktail on a beach with. Whether you’re travelling ‘solo’ or joining us in a group, this is the most social travel imaginable.
TAILORED TRANSPORT
Latin America is oh-so-beautiful, but it’s also very big. Fortunately, we know when to speed you from A-B on an internal flight, or when to let you soak up some scenery on mini private coaches or on train journeys though misty mountains. Transport is all included during your trip and is always tailored to the places you go.
TRAVEL STYLES
Our travel styles are all about giving you choice. Differentiated by how many places you want to visit and how much you want included in the price, they mean you’ll always know what you’re getting when you travel with us.
DISCOVERER
See it all, do it all. If you’re a dreamer and bucket list ticker, our Discoverer trips are for you. Designed to see multiple Latin American countries, they include heaps of incredible experiences you wouldn’t be able to do on your own. Included speedy transport and small groups means you make the most of your time in this enriching region.
IN-DEPTH EXPLORER
Looking to dive deep into a culture? Our In-Depth Explorer trips are the best way to get the most out of a single country or region. Perfectly balanced, these trips have an emphasis upon social travel, but in smaller groups. They include loads of incredible local experiences that allow you to see an authentic side to the places you visit.
