South America for Visitors
South America for Visitors:
"Want to go it alone but mot sure how (Guardian Unlimited): A reader to the Escape Guide asked; ''My dream holiday is to spend two or three months in South America. I'm hoping to save up and go sometime next year, by myself. I've never been away on my own before and I'm pretty nervous about going alone.''
The response is a detailed suggestion of places to go and things to see, starting with a language course in Buenos Aires and staying in hostels to meet other travelers.
'For convenience, he could buy an airpass that allows travel within several countries at discounted prices. From Buenos Aires he could go to Bariloche or San Martin, both of which have excellent hiking, then take a boat over to Chile to its lake district which is a sensational trip, then on to Santiago.
From there, the Atacama desert and San Pedro de Atacama and on to Puno in Peru and Lake Titicaca. He can then catch the train 'over the roof of the world' from Puno to Cusco, then take the Lares trek (rather than the Inca trail) to Machu Picchu.
Next, Brazil, staying at Iquitos (a jungle lodge), Brasilia, Salvador, Rio, the Iguacu Falls, then back to Buenos Aires to marvel at what an old South America hand he's become.'' "
