Perito Moreno Glacier is one of the most recognizable ice formations in Argentina, located within Los Glaciares National Park in Santa Cruz Province. The glacier extends into the southern arm of Lago Argentino and is notable for its broad ice front, which can be viewed from a network of walkways and observation platforms. Its proximity to El Calafate makes it one of the more accessible major glaciers in Patagonia.
Benguerra Island, part of Mozambique’s Bazaruto Archipelago, is a tropical paradise known for its pristine beaches, turquoise waters, and rich marine life. Accessible by boat from Vilankulo, the island offers a secluded retreat where visitors can enjoy sun-soaked sandbanks, coral reefs, and the gentle sway of palm trees. Its small size and limited development help maintain an intimate atmosphere that feels far removed from bustling tourist hubs.
As you cruise along the Orinoco, South America's second-longest river, you will pass an imposing 17th-century fort. Just up the river is Ciudad Guayana, your gateway to Angel Falls. The falls, discovered 60 years ago by American bush pilot Jimmy Angel, are the hightest in the world. More than a half-mile hight and 15 times taller than Niagara Falls, they are undoubtedly one of the world's most breathtaking natural wonders.
