I am not sure why, but South America often feels like the forgotten continent amongst travelers. So before you run off to Thailand, France, or Iceland, I want to make a case for South America.
I could talk at you until we’re both snoring, but I can’t do proper justice to this continent with words. So, take a moment to be inspired by a few wonders of the Latin Continent.

Man oh man… I dipped my toes in the pool of wonder that is South America when I visited Argentina. But, after seeing these photos I’m really motivated to visit again and explore the natural beauties of the continent. Amazing photography, Rachel! Bravo!
Thank you Christina! Definitely go back and explore more!!! I took all these photos with my older camera… I kind of want to revisit them all with my new professional model!
It looks so amazing, I really do want to explore South America. Great photos!
Thanks for these photos. I’ve only gone to the capitals of Argentina and Chile but have always wanted to explore more. I hope to get to Peru next year and will use your pictures as inspiration!
So beautiful! I’ve only been one of these places, can’t wait to visit more!
Perito Moren looks amazing! I think that’s on top of my list plus Iguazu Falls has always been a dream!
South America hasn’t been top of my list but my husband is desperate to go. Your photos definitely help a girl to change her mind though – it looks fantastic!
This makes me happy to hear! Like I say, South America feels like the forgotten continent with travelers… and it’s so beautiful and culturally diverse 🙂
Oh wow! I didn’t know that Peru looks like this and I really want to visit this place and few others 😉
The White Ocean
I’ve never been to South America but these definitely are convincing me! Now to find a cheap flight..
Keep an eye out. Keep dates and entry airports loose and cheap flights will turn up!
Beautiful phots! Its hard to pick a winner but if I had to it would be Guatapé, Colombia! Looks amazing.
Guatapé certainly is a stunning place!!
Yep these have most certainly made me consider it. What breathtaking photos. I’m really in to landscape photography and those locations are just a dream.

Some of the most other-worldly and breathtaking landscapes are in South America! If you really love landscape photography – I highly recommend looking into the 3-4 day Jeep trek to Salar De Uyuni!
I’m willing to book a flight to South America in any given moment, i forget about being in Sucre at all, so nice to remember, haven’t been everywhere yet, but i do hope to get there
Wow these photographs are totally awesome and beautiful!!! I would love to visit here one day.
I want to visit them all!! So so beautiful!
I would absolutely jump at the chance to go to South America! The Galapagos Islands have been on my travel bucket list since I can remember. I feel like I’d need at least 6 months to do everything properly though – maybe even longer!

I hear you. You’re my kind of traveler. I’ve spent a couple years exploring SA! And I feel like I’ve missed things…
AMAZING pictures! I feel so bad because I am from Mexico and I have spent more time in Europe than in South America, but Argentine is really calling my attention. Especially after the photos! Patagonia is just like a mini paradise. Great job!
If Patagonia is calling your name… GO! It’s stunning!
Thats amazing! So many unique landscapes! I don’t know where I’d want to go first!
These photos are absolutely stunning! My mother is from Colombia which I have been to several times. I would love to explore more of South America someday 🙂
Aww this is so beautiful pictures especially, the Bolivia one. Thanks for the post.
You seriously don’t need to convince me anymore! Damn, what a beautiful Earth we have.
these are really amazing pictures and I would love to visit Iruya, Argentina as I like such places
Iruya is a magical tiny little town hidden in the mountains! It’s a local Argentinian secret getaway that most foreigners don’t know about!
Peru, Argentina and Chile looks so amazing, I wish to book my flight right now and explore these beautiful places.
So I have already started searching the best rates to take me to Argentina which I loved the most in this blogpost!
I’m in Argentina now! This country is spectacular. I’ve even been considering living here for the last couple years… maybe 2018 is when I take the plunge 😊
Breathtaking photographs and yes, i truly wish to travel to South America now. I know it won’t happen any time so, until then i will save your photographs and keep dreaming 🙂
I’m keeping a running list of places that I need to visit over spring and summer break. Those landscapes all over Peru look stunning :O
All your pictures are splendid! Every picture speaks for itself how beautiful South America is! I’d love to visit there someday!
These pictures just make me want to pack my bags and head to South America! It would require a lot of planning from my end as a Nigerian citizen but I’m up for the challenge. Bolivia and Peru in particular are on my list. Can’t wait to explore them.
Bolivia and Peru are such magical countries! I hope it get to visit them soon. When you are ready to start planning, let me know! I have lots of suggestions ❤️
so beautiful and unreal. I miss southamerica!
