Latin America is one of the world's great travel destinations. Seemingly endless jungles, lost mountain cities, mysterious vanished civilizations, unique landscapes, thriving cities and the smell of revolution all combine to ensure a surprising adventure is always waiting around the corner.
Where else can you find people whose job it is to dress up in zebra suits to ensure vehicles actually stop at zebra crossings? Where else can you visit families who live on their own tiny man-made islands? Where else can you journey across the surreal landscape of the world's largest salt plains?
And there is always the mystery of the enigmatic Bolivian ninjas.

South America is a place I love, and I think, if you take it right through from Darien to Fuego, it's the grandest, richest, most wonderful bit of earth upon this planet. People don't know it yet, and don't realize what it may become...
You and I could be as far away from each other as Scotland is from Constantinople, and yet each of us be in the same great Brazilian forest. Man has just made a track here and a scrape there in the maze. Why, the river rises and falls the best part of forty feet, and half the country is a morass that you can't pass over. Why shouldn't something new and wonderful lie in such a country?
- Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, The Lost World
