Stage 1 of the Che South America Odyssey
Our Che tour will envelop you in a unique and spiritual mystery, found only in the unspoilt, enchanted hinterlands of South America. This volcanic wonderland shaped and fuelled the revolutionary thoughts of Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara, born in 1928. ‘The Man’ himself cuts a fascinating figure—equally revered and reviled around the world.
Highlights
- Experiencing the famous Maule region's mouth-watering oceanic food culture
- Visit and swim if you dare in the chilling waterfall of Salto Del Indio!
- Roll through spectacular wine regions of Chile - The Casablanca, Maipu and Colchagua Valleys, tasting for yourself why their wines have such worldwide acclaim
- Climb into the Andes from our hotel at the base of Volcano Lonquimay all the way to the Pacific Coast
- Roll along the stunningly rugged Pacific coast with its beautiful architectural hotels which we regularly take advantage of
- Rest in Punto des Lobos
- As well as epic cycling, take a walk up Volcano Lonquimay, a leisurely stroll on a beach to visit the incredible Piedra de la Iglesia (the church rock) and hike to Lapostelle ridge for a 360 degree view of Chile's premier grape growing valley.
